Since Tensa offers two different length of boom stakes I have to ask, is that the longer 40cm long stake? If not, and that's the 30cm one, I'm amazed it held with so little underground. But, I suppose that if the ground was that hard there would be a lot less ability of the stake to shift around and the stake would have the same ability to hold in place as a longer drop into a softer soil (ie: same amount of effective counter force to your weight in the hammock).
I've never had the problem you describe, frankly all of my issues have been due to the ground being "deceptively soft" and having stakes pull out in the middle of a hang. Thanks for sharing!
