Heavy winds and ground tent camping

We are out at Overland West for the Expo since yesterday. If you are out there, you know how horrible the winds are. There are 7 people in my group, and all of use are tent camping out there. We came back to camp from the expo yesterday and our tents were collapsed and full of dust. My steaks were pulled from the ground. Just curious how are you all dealing with heavy winds when you are in a tent?
 
You need those stakes that are screwed into the ground
Yep, have a loog at some better pegs. I never had such an issues to be honest so I can't name any specific products. I am sure there is something out there. Probably pegs that are used for mountaineering tents, those guys deal with some hectic winds up there
 
The more I'm using these stakes, the more I REALLY like them, but can't help wonder if I could make these myself? Anyone try?
