Spinning vs. Non spinning
Do any of you all have a spinning pole or just a regular one? Spinning wise would you recommend a spinning pole or a non spinning one? I'm thinking for strength wise and learning to spin on my own I would say a non spinning one but I don't know but what do you all think?

I have an xpert xpole and I love that it has both spinning and static modes, like two poles in one!
-
I have the sport's one I just bought and I could have bought the x pole same price didnt know that it spinned til now so I don't know if I should return mine or what. I didnt want the spinning one but now that I found out it has both i don't know what I should do. I think I'm going to email them to exchange it..

I would have to pay $60 more Nevermind lol

Emailing them just incase can't erase my comment but hey!

I have a static pole that I bought after my first class, before I knew how useful the spinning feature was. I really wish I'd bought a spinning pole. With the spinning pole, you can put the pin in place and use it as a static pole, so you have both options. There are certain spins I can't practice at home because you need a spinning pole, so eventually I'll buy a spinning pole.

Even though you are still leaning static spins, it is better to get the combo static/spinning pole. Once you get better at poling, you are going to want to play with spin mode. Better to fork out the extra $$ initially rather than having to buy a second pole just for spin mode. That would cost more in the long run.

Hahahahha most deff thinking about it right now but wish I would have known that before now i feel like selling my pole I jus got lol ugh…
-
I think that in your case you chould just hang onto the one you have, then purchase a second spinning pole in a different diameter and/or finish. Variety is always good.
-
Yea I was thinking about that there is nothing wrong with having two poles..I could go from one to one more exercise
-
Yup! It's nice to have different finishes for weather changes and stuff. Also different diameters are good for a challenge.

I work exclusively on a static pole but bought the xpert where it has static and spinning mode. I bought it just in case I might want to learn things on spin mode one day. So glad I got it!

I have the xpert so it has both static and spin mode, but to be honest I've been way too freaked out by spinny! Wayy to nauseating https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_puke_r.gif Now that Veena has spin lessons maybe I'll give it a try.. but I agree that having a spinny pole is useful.. Plus it is pretty https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif

For the first year and a half that I poled I used static exclusively. That's all they had at the studio I started in and I was used to it. I felt very weird on spin mode so I just kinda avoided it. I also have pretty bad motion sickness. Finally after I felt I had gained enough strength to combat the momentum of the spin I really buckled down and learned how to use spin mode. It's actually quite a lot of fun! After my body got used to it and the motion sickness subsided, I began to enjoy it. It is so entirely different from static mode. You have to create your own momentum on static mode, which I feel is an important skill to develop. You also have to use different techniques to make your aerial work on static pole more interesting, as you are not spinning your poses around like on spin mode. I recommend getting stronger using static mode, developing the skill to create your own momentum, and then translate your tricks and spin poses to the spin mode and enjoy both worlds! 🙂
