I saw some novel anchors for EZ-UPs this weekend at an art
fair. The vendor took 4 3' lengths of 3" pvc pipe and capped one end. Then
they filled each with a concrete mix, setting a heavy duty metal eye in each
one. After they set up, he used rope to hang one from each corner of his EZ-UP,
tying it off at the base of each leg. The weight pulled down on the top corner,
yet held the bottom of each leg in place. I thought it looked like a great idea,
other than having to handle the weights each time you used the
thing.
