  • X-pert pole and ankle spins

    Posted by Ebony58 on December 23, 2013 at 12:00 pm

    I’m curious if anyone else has encountered a problem doing a ankle spin on an X-pert pole. And if so how to fix it. My 3 hex screws are never completely flush with the pole. Whenever I try to do the ankle spin I get scratches. The screws just seem to be at the awkward height of where I naturally want to place my ankles to the start the spin. If I do manage to start off higher on the pole I still get scratched as the screws are where I would naturally finish. Any advice to overcome this would be much appreciated.

    Are the screws 100% on the flat part of the adjuster rod? It sound like they aren’t, cuz the screws should not stick out. Actually they should be in the pole a bit. If they aren’t flush, then they might have the wrong size screws in, but i really think you just need to turn the pole a slight bit to get it fully on the flat part of the rod.

    Hmm, the screws shouldn’t be sticking out at all. Have you tried trouble shooting by contacting x- pole?

    Thanks for the replies! I’ll try turning the pole a bit more first. If no success I’ll have to try X-pole. I really hope I can solve it as I love my pole.

    Yeah, I agree with what everyone else has said. Those screws should not stick out. Mine are set quite deep. When looking at the adjuster uncovered there are 3 flat columns in the grooves of the threading. Those screws are supposed to line up with those flat parts. These are the flat parts: http://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-prn1/734292_1991611627578_1739300642_n.jpg
