    Hi everyone,

    I have a 50mm Chrome Static X pole but am wondering what everyone else found easiest to learn on….static or spinning?

    I have read mixed reviews but wondered what you all started on and if you have tried and enjoyed a spinning pole.

    I would like to have one of each but need to know if I could do loads more with it or if it just makes spins look pretty 🙂

    Thanks

    Jessica

    I started on static so I find that easier but my guess is whichever you started on you will think is less difficult. I remember when I first started spin I spent more focus on it than static and when I switched back static seemed hard. I personally think there is more skill involved in spin that just looking pretty but if all your dream moves or fave pole vids are on static you might not it too important to learn both. It just depends on your personal taste. I like spin because it makes me feel like I’m floating and it goes really well with certain songs I love. So even the music you listen to might help determine if you want to stick with one type or do both.

    From what I’ve seen those who start on spin have a difficult time switching over to static. With static you need to learn timing with the swing and push leg to achieve the most momentum but on spin the technique is a bit different. I also suggest learning new pole moves on static first just so you don’t have to worry about spinning around while learning something new. One is not easier than the other they’re just different.
