@@DD-101 It took me, like, 20 minutes to research that. Once I found it once, I searched “Guyout points” and confirmed the term. No thanks necessary, I’m just doing my job. P.s. I’m also extremely busy with my full time job as The Grammar Police.
There are just countless factors in search of a “correct” mathematical angle. What angle is the tent body/pitch? Are the guy-out points sewn at exactly 10 degrees?? lol. Go do geometry and find perfection. We will be in the forest!
After seeing the thumbnail picture I was going to check the comments before watching the video to see if she was credible because her outfit didn’t scream “I do a lot of camping” but then she spoke and seemed quite knowledgeable so didn’t bother.
Hey Chris, nice story. I remember once I saw this book and I didn’t like the way it looked but then I read it and it was actually pretty good. I came up with something short and pithy as a reminder to me not to do that again. “Don’t jump to conclusions regarding the appearance of the bindings and protective layers surrounding sheets of compressed wood-pulp and thereby infer any connected relation to the the relative worth and/or value of the data printed upon said compressed wood pulp.” It’s really catchy and I don’t think that there’s ever been a phrase like it before.
It's painful to watch people trying to educate, only to show they don't know their stuff themselves. Tent stakes are not to be put in at a 45 degree angle. Nor are they to be put at 90 degrees to the line. You put them in at no more than 10 degrees from vertical. Beyond that they will actually lose their holding power. There are decent demonstration videos here on RUclips proving just that.
There are also videos showing quite the reverse. The publication from which the "vertical is best" mantra came concerned itself with large scale tents where far longer stakes are driven in to a depth where compaction plays a much more significant role. Better to do a quick test to see if you have adequate hold at the site you are at than rely on a rule that might not apply where you are.
Correct your Grammar, please: The very is "To Use", NOT "To Correctly". Heading should be 'How to use guy lines correctly". In view of your error, I have not bothered to look at the video. In view of your simple grammatical error, it also, is likely to have unbearable and unpardonable factual errors.

Thank you very much, guy lines have always confused me!! I hate putting up tents and awnings, they are a divorce in a bag

Too funny but absolutely agree 😂😂😂
😂😂😂
this video was very useful, that was a perfect and clear explanation! thank you!
thanks, short and to the point, that is what I like
Good video. Thanks for the help.
Good, clear video. I know of a device that helps retain guy tension & improve peg holding power.
Great advice
Thanks mate
Look, I know I shouldn't have looked that hard, and yes, thanks for the info.
How to split infinitives
What's the name of the tags we tie the guy lines to on the tent?
Guyout Points. ✅
@@catlady8324 Many thanks 😊

@@catlady8324 thanks
That was the softest ground I've ever seen.
I still don't understand how to use guy lines. Needed something more basic.
Best just stay in the house then.
Damn, Sally looks good!
Who would use wire peg 🤨
THANKS FOR NOTHING !!! right is 10 degre angle !
Matheus Specht ...according to whom? I’ve never heard that 10 degrees is optimal, it seems optimistic

What a fox
I think you mean vixen.
Sally, you and I would need a much smaller tent ;)

Hi Chris, it's unclear what you believe somebody who camps should dress like, since litterally anyone can go camping.

the video is 7 years old. Maybe the angle of the stakes wasnt an established fact at that time

Correct YOUR grammar please, 'The very is' makes no sense.
Fucking bell end! You sound like a right nonce.
@@benjaminroberts4075 Agreed.
@@benjaminroberts4075 Alan is correct. Even in the woods, grammar counts!
@@catlady8324 Alan is not correct, the dumb fuck put 'The very is'. Which makes no sense, I'm guessing he meant to put the phrase is.
@@benjaminroberts4075 He prolly meant “The word is”. His sentiment was correct, I blame it on a spell check error.
