I can get it up ok given a bit of time and encouragement, but I've been known to roll over in my sleep and bend it very near to the point of fracture. I sometimes have a problem getting inside if I've had a few drinks and end up going in an alternative entrance. A good tip I've heard of when erecting a tent is to hold the peg near the base while hammering it in, first with gentle taps and then really giving it some until it's rock solid and won't fall out of it's own accord. Alternatively there is the method of finding a hole that's already had a peg in it when it usually slips in no problem with minimal effort. This method works especially well if the ground is moist and there's not too much grass which assists in finding the hole.
P.S. The quicker it goes up the quicker it goes down.
