40mm or 45mm?
-
I like the though of a better hand grip! The first 1-1.5 years I had a 50 mm. Since then I've used a 45, but I'm constantly thinking of buying a 40 . The opinions seem positive most of the time.
-
I’ve not heard much negative about it. Will feel abit odd for me after 4 years using a 50mm.
-
I understand how you're feeling about it. But when I switched to 45 from 50 I didn't experience any big difference however, except for better hand grip and a more dangerous CAR (on spinny). The change will be a bit bigger for you but I'm sure you'll get used to it in a couple of weeks and imagine, you'll most probably be able to do EVEN better lifts and stuff!

It'll feel weird at frist, but I really think you'll like the 40mm.
-
Thank ladies, I'm 90% sure I want to go for the 40mm now

One of the girls I pole with has a 40, and I love it! I did not notice any difference in leg grips. Shoulder mounts were a little painful, sort of like when I was first learning them. But like Amy said, you adjust quickly. And the hand grip is sooo much better, it’s worth it!! I wish I had space for two poles, a 45 and a 40!

Thank you. I'm hoping to keep my 50mm up aswel, but I really doubt theres enough room 🙁

How exciting! I am trying to decide between a 40 or another 45 too 🙂 getting a new pole soon!
I’m sure you will be even more amazing with a 40! I have a a 50 & a 45, I love my 45 but I need a taller pole so I have to pick again :-/ I love the 45 compaired to the 50 & I wouldn’t go back up a size ever! Things are easier to me on a 45 so I feel like it should be even easier on a 40… Right? Lol -
I love my 38, but I want to perform someday and seems like the standard is a 45 chrome. Therefore I need to nail my tricks on a 45 and now am buying another pole! I would say if u are going to perform ever, learn on what is being used.
-
Wow, I would looove to try a 40mm! Lyme, where did you get your 38? I didn't know that was possible in the US!
-
My 38 is a brass Platinum Stages……
-
I started practicing with a Chrome XPole Xpert 45. Recently I changed to a Brass XPole XPert 40 and I love it. I have little hands, I´m a really short woman, so I needed a better grip. I think I took the best choice because brass is great to enhance grip too. Hope this hepls…
