I bought six of these for my Dagger Osmo. They are extremely light. I was really worried about bending them or damaging them but they held up just fine. I’ve been using them for 4 years now. The case use is importantly to keep in mind. These are not stakes to be using in a big tent that is going to be going on rocky ground. For backpacking in the forests with a lightweight tent that won’t be with storm force winds they will do the job beautifully and most important you won’t feel like you are carrying them. I highly recommend them for those who want to reduce weight without compromising function.

Great addition for quickly guying out. Makes setting up and taking down a breeze.

So light and easily packable. Glad they are bright, or I'd forget to pick them up because of the size/weight

I have purchased these multiple times for spares and replacements. They are good to have as lightweight backups. They don’t hold in the ground as good as the triangular shaped stakes, but they don’t take up as much room either. I wouldn’t recommend them anyway.

I haven't got to use them yet, but looks like they'd work great for guy lines. Nice option from having to tie them

Trying to get my pack lighter. Was recommended these by my SAR leader and picked them up. They work great and are a little lighter than the ones that came with the NEMO Mayfly tent. Just used them on a two day trip on the Oregon Coast. I already bent one of them. Overall, they are a good addition but not sure they were really necessary for the weight reduction. If you are trying to shave off every gram then these are great.

So easy to use, no stress for rain time setups. No need for knots

Bought them for my one person Dragonfly. About to buy the 3p dragonfly and will definitely be upgrading those stakes to these, as well.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these stakes - they are incredibly light and super strong. The shape makes them easy to anchor in pretty much any terrain. While I believe they're meant for guylines, I have replaced all my regular stakes with them, and I could not be happer.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] You might think they are too small and light weight to do a good job holding down your tent, but they are perfect! I replaced all my stakes with them. Love them!

I purchased the Nemo Airpins because I wanted to lighten the weight of my stakes without sacrificing durability. I primarily hike in the White Mountains where the rocky soil can bend those ultralight candy-cane style titanium stakes. I steered clear of the nail-style pegs because, while they are light, they tend to be made of two-to-three components (head, body and sometimes a separate tip) that are glued or swaged together and I did not want to mess with a stake that could fail at the joint (the ground is not a forgiving medium when jabbing into it). My preference is the single-piece three-sided Y-Beam style aluminum stakes because you can stomp them into the ground with confidence and they come in handy as an eating utensil when your friend forgets their spork. But, they are not as light or compact as the Airpins. The Airpins, I am happy to say, have come with me on multiple trips between NH and ME this summer and have satisfied all my needs. They are barely noticeable in my pack, they take up very little space and are light as heck. They have held securely in the soil overnight and in the morning, when breaking camp, they are easier to clean dirt off of compared to the y-beam style stakes (which can take a while to clean off). If you are looking to lighten your pack and do not want to sacrifice durability, these lime-green stakes will delight you.

These are the perfect stakes to anchor your tent. They are strong for their size!
