    I've poled on 50mm, 45mm and most recently, 38mm poles. I think 38mm is my new fave. It's so easy to grip. What's your favorite pole size and why?

    I poled on a 50mm only a few times before selling it because my hands arejust too small! I love that I can hold my new 45mm, and someday I will get a 38 or 40mm — it'll be love at first grip, I already know it! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_heart1.gif

    I started using an Xpole 50mm sport and then got a 45mm X pole Xpert a year later as I had very achey fingers from using the 50mm.   I love my 45mm and find my grip so much better and found no problem with CKR's and thigh holds from down sizing. I would like to try the 40mm  but I don't think I can get another pole yet, as that averages out at one a year 🙂  maybe if I sell the 50mm lol

    We have both 45mm and 50mm in class. I always pole on the 50mm pole. 
    I'm slender with long fingers so i need all the girth I can get to hold on.

    I definitely have to agree on the achey fingers but I am waitng for my gloves and powder  to come in the mail to see if that helps.

    I read and watched youtube reviews on sizes of poles, and I decided to go with a 45mm xpert and I love it. Im just under 5'2 and the pole works great with my hand grips. After a month of poling in my room, I finally went to a class at Brass Ovaries in Austin , Tx. I tried out the 50mm pole but it was too wide for what I was used too (haha). So I hopped on their 45 and it is just like my baby at home.

    At the moment I have a 0mm and I can't stand it because it feels like nothing is there.

    I love 38's, I like 45's, I tolerate but don't like 50's.

    You know what?  I don't know.  I bought my pole from Sfactor because I didn't know about Xpoles at the time, but it's a standard size pole I guess.  I thought about getting a smaller pole because I have small hands, but the I figured that if by chance I got to a place with bigger poles then I wouldn't be able to hold on, so I needed to learn now.  It has an option to spin you just pull a pen from the bottom.

    Bought a 40mm cause of my tiny hands. If xpole had a 38 I would of gotten that instead.
