Are these going to be suitable for use in soft beach sand and shingle?

When re-designing, think LWB patrol on 36" simex, buried in thompsons clay. I think it might need to be BIG.

My ground anchor will be ready shortly, just having the spade bent. It isnt folding but the angles/design is based on a proven design. People are welcome to come and check it out.
