Any other fuller figure girls struggle with Allegra?

Amy that sounds interesting! DO you have video of this variation? I did try an elbow grip version of Jade once and it almost made me cry…LOL

No, I don’t, but the entry is the same as Allegra. YouMUST turn your back to the pole if you do the jallegra, otherwise your weight will simply pull yo straight down. If you twist your back fully to the pole as in Natashas picture, your weight will pull the pole deeper into the side of your thigh, reinforcing the hold.
I do the Allegra and the jallegra on spin and static. Certain entries are easier on spin because the weight of your body pulling away from the pole reinforces the hip hold. I like to enter Allegra/jallegra from a one or two handed meathook spin which is nearly impossible on static…. On static I always go from a very hooked, tight knee hook Scorpio. I find going into it from thigh hold is difficult for me because of my body proportions– I can’t reach up to grab the pole without losing my armpit hold and relying on JUST the hip hold doesn’t work for me.
