40mm or Fly Gym
Okay, so my husband wanted to get me an Ipad Mini for Christmas. He waited too late to look into it and it wasn't available in time. He gave me the money for one, our son surprised us and gave us each a little chunk of $$. I never really looked into an Ipad for myself and am still deciding to get one or not. However, with the $$ from hubby and son, I can get a 40mm pole! I have not tried one yet and wish I could. Also, I would like it in titan gold, but not available. Will it be available in titan gold eventually.
I have a 45mm chrome and titan gold. I didn't like the chrome at first, so bought tita gold. I did use the chrome quite a bit and just put up the titan gold due to cold weather making chrome too slippery. I figure if I get a 40mm, I'd like to go straight to titan gold.
Anyone, other than veena used a 40mm? I saw veena's post on a video about a 40mm, and curious about others input.
BUT, I also see how many are liking their Fly Gym and wondering about that????

I am loving my 38 for the size, but the brass is very temperamental with grip issues. Flygym looks fun!

I think the Omnigym is only $125 right now…..

What is the main difference between Omni and Fly? Could you use a Fly with an Omni Stand (that stand looks like it rocks lol!)

I have a 40mm chrome and I have ordered the onmi gym (stand and swing.) If you order the stand with the swing, it's a little cheaper than buying separate pieces, so if you want the stand, just get the onmi swing too. I have the stand, but the swing hasn't arrived yet. I can write about my thoughts on it when it comes.
The 40 is a nice intermediate between the 45 and 38. I can do some things easier on the 45 than the 38 and vice versa. The one move I am afraid to do on a 38 is an eg aysha, but can bust it out on a 45. I still feel semi comfortable with it on the 40.
The onmi gym and fly gym are pretty much the same thing…
No, x pole does not plan on offering the 40 in TG or SS (I asked them several times.)
IMO, go with the yoga hammock. You already have a pole that works, and you can use it (I'm assuming), but you do not have a yoga hammock.

I would go with a yoga hammock 🙂 I bought mine from aerial empowerment online. She was having a sale a few months ago and is a sv member so you may want to see if she is still having a sale.

I ordered the grip spray ingredients I have from aerial empowerment, love it and Hope is soooo nice. Is that the contact gal? Yoga Hammock, can it be used for same things fly gym is used for, whatever that is LOL I just hear how people love it (fly gym).

I think the flygym and omni gym have more uses since you have those handles and the hammock.
-
I Googled Aerial Empowerment and the site popped right up. I was wondering if the yoga hammock is all you really need, and if all the handles and grips and foot slings with the "gym" ones are just extraneous. But some of the poses and things I see on the gym ones seem like you could never get that from a straight hammock. When people first said Yoga Hammock, I was JUST looking at Omni because they call it the Original Yoga Hammock lol.

it just depends on what you want out of it.

I wanted my hammock for stretching and didn’t like all the extra thing hanging off the other options. I’m a simple gal lol. Yes it’s Hope I ordered from.

Anyone have experience with the omni, fly and aerial empowerment hammock? I was going to purchase a flygym because that's the only one I'd ever heard of until I found this forum string (LOVE this site). I was also drawn to the flygym because it says you can use it to spot yourself on the pole. But, now that I'm reading about the three of them, I'd like something to help with my TIGHT shoulders, back and hips. I'd appreciate any relevant experiences you ladies may have with any of the three, or all, of these apparatuses (sp?).

I have the omni gym! I love it! I think they are all similar to each other! I have had it about a month or so and I can see improvements in my shoulders, back, hips, and legs! Also it is helping with my handstands!!
-
I do use the extra handles, but if you don’t want to use them, they come off very easy! :))

@valerie98 Do you have the stand with your omni gym?
