    Saw them. If it's a 45 then it would still be a really good pole for your first pole. I prefer the original x poles persoanlly.

    I just got my 45 chrome last week.  I did have a cheapy 50 powder coat. The new pole is so amazing!  Can't begin to say enough good things about the new pole.  Things are so much easier for me!  Even my boyfriend was impressed with the quality and design of the new pole. If you can impress that guy, you've done something! lol

    The hand holds are more comfortable and my confidence level sky rocketted after the first use.  Spins and leg grips are much more secure.  But my pole is still really new and im sure there will be adjustments to go thru.  Grip/slip figuring me and the pole out, that kind of thing.  Now, you can scratch my car but NOT MY POLE!!! LOL

    @echo234 hey! The 45mm was my first choice, so I think if I can’t get a brand new pole, I will def start out with a used 45mm. I’m so excited to find a pole…I can’t wait to start practicing! Do u think you could show me some pics on the safety features n just some indications of the 45 mm x-pole, so I can know what to look for if I get a used pole? N is your pole static or combination?

    I can take pics of the pieces that i did not need for my ceiling hieght as well as the pole in place.  showing you the adjuster area will also be very simple. here's my problem…. not very tech savvy so can I load the pics to the site or do you want them in your email??

    Im proud to say I got the pics posted. not real good ones but i hope you get the idea. my hand almost goes completely around the pole, just a small gap remaining.  I can take more if you'd like and hopefully do a better job. lol

    @echo234 the pics are fine! U make me want the 45mm now because ur hand looks like it fits comfortably around the pole n I have small hands as well! I was a little worried about my hands gripping around the pole, but not anymore. Thank you…very helpful:-)

    aww thanks.  It feels good to be a part of your excitement. I know with me when I decided I wanted it, I wanted it right now!!! Then it was out of stock https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif I could have chosen a 40 at that point but i wanted the 45 cuz I've heard it's most commonly used in competions.  I'm glad I waited I'm extremely happy with my choice.

    No prob! I am excitedhttps://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif I want my pole now too! I can't wait to start practicing! N yeah, i think the 45mm will be a good starting point for me. Then that way if i decide to get another pole, I can choose to either go up or down. I'm glad you're happy with your choice tho because that made my decision a little bit easier:-)
