We’ve all been on those pitches when the hard standing pitches are so rock hard even the sturdiest steel pegs get bent. 

So, here we go - what’s the best sort for staying straight? What’s the best method of straightening bent ones without permanently damaging your hands / eyes / body parts?

Loads outhere of different types but I would look at ebay and find the strongest ones as there quite cheap and if they bend use a vice on your return to straighten. Aldi sell them from time to time. I found the round hardened steel ones the best. It's personnal preferance with these though.

You are looking for rock pegs. Purchase them from a reputable supplier, on line or somewhere like Go outdoors/your local caravan dealer.
