Are the spikes removeable? Do you have to use them?

You assemble the stands yourself, the spikes are optional. If you don't want to install them you don't have to.

If I remember correctly, one attaches the spikes, so one may choose not to use them. They are for carpeted floors.

Yes, removable. Actually it comes without the spikes in place and you put them on as you assemble.

hey there, yes they are totally removable and don't have to be installed at all if you prefer. I'm not using them and it works great.

The spikes are very sharp and stick well. Although one would fall out if I would turn the whole thing upside down. And some are difficult to take out. But thats just mine.

Apparently so. I'm told you need 1or 2 spikes for the Spring/Summer season, as they hate soil with low nutrients

I bought the stainless steel ones and they have grooves in the plastic that you can bend back and forth to break them apart. I suppose you could cut them as well just didn't need to. I don't know about the all plastic pigeon spikes though.

Yes they can be removed. There is a hatch door which can be opened and shut easily. No need for anything to scoop them out because the globe can be spun to the desired position and they can easily drop out when the hatch is open.

Yes, they can be removed. I'm still happy with it, I work at home and have used it 4x a week for more than 6 months.

The spikes are about 4 inches long. You could simply cut them down if you wished, but as they are cut shorter I would think they would be less effective. They are very thin and do not show much.

the base of the spikes are made of plastic & is flexible, a small screw or construction glue would work.

Not without modification. The spike is permanently attached to the monopod and the rubber foot does not come off. If you don't mind modifying you may be able to do what you want.

Yes, they are easily removable. It is a very versatile piece, and very well built.

Yes they can be removed. They also don't fall out when you opened them which i really like.

They are removable - but not that easy. Takes a bit of tugging but, carefully done, you can do it without a problem.

The spikes are as long as they say and will need to be pounded into the ground 20"-24" to maintain the poles from shifting during play, especially if the ground is soft. You can try different spike depths but there is a chance the poles will start to 'shift in' depending on what kind of play-ability out of the net you typically like to have. The answer I guess is 'Yes' you can use them but obviously try and be aware of sprinkler locations.

Hi Mark, I'm not sure if you should remove the feet but my guess is that if you leave them on you will get the highest degree of isolation. However I probably would remove them if they are the spike style. But that's just a guess. Hope this help and enjoy the bass!

Yes, they can come off if you pull them off. There is a slit along that allows for removing if you want to.

I would think u could use a hack saw to remove them. That's what I used to cut an end piece off

The spikes are not installed they come in a bag so if you want to use them you have to screw them in. I put my stand on carpet and I didn't use spikes.
