    hi!
    so i went through the assembly instructions for this new pole and i´m sorry to say i wasn´t very impressed. maybe it´s because i´m an old fashioned girl at heart, but i really like the fact that the normal x just screws together. it´s a no-brainer. ok sometimes the threads get stuck, but in general it´s a really easy to put together and take apart, you can even do it by yourself.
    the kendra pole needs 2 people to set up. the new x system seems kind of complicated. they state plainly that the screws and keys will eventually have to be substituted, you can´t use any type of grip products, the connections might flare, you can´t use water on it (i wonder how it reacts to sweat?), and it doesn´t spin! too many don´ts and can´ts for me.
    i did like the new ceiling mount though, i´m wondering if anyone knows if it´s possible to replace a normal x dome with one of these? the floor mount thing is cool too but i don´t like the idea of having the threads on the bottom of the pole. i´m a total clutz and i can just imagine myself nocking off the foam and ripping my toes into shreads,plus if you have to cut it to size then if you put up your pole in a different place with a different hight it won´t fit properly.
    the fact that you have poles on the inside might give the pole less flex, wich is good, but the maximum hight is actually less than a normal x if i remember correctly.
    all this just to say that although it seems to be a good pole (definately not carmen e type) i would not trade my pole wally (50mm chrome x) for one of these no way!!!!
    and a normal x only costs 10$ more if you buy one here from veena who gives free shipping!
    just my opinion!

    ps: can´t we make a petition or something to vertical leisure to at least make miss kendra not call it a stripper
    pole anymore?

    I like Kendra, but I’m not sure about her marketing a pole. I get where they’re goin gwith it as far as recognization factor but she probably would not have been my first choice.

    I am intrigued about a floor mount pole. I’m not looking forward to having to borrow the building’s 10 foot ladder everytime I want to put my pole up or take it down. (I have very high ceilings.) But I just don’t know how that would work… https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gif

    ugh, the video on the site made me cringe. i think its hilarious she said "I do not want to see Paris Hilton on my pole!" don’t see why not the way they’re marketing it. big let down from x pole https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif

    I think she said Perez Hilton…that weird homo celebrity roaster – for lack of a better way to describe him.
