itac2
Does anyone use this. I noticed on their website they have different levels and that they suggest level 2 for pole dancing. I’d be using this for advanced level moves on days where I just can’t get a good grip.
Looking for feedback from those that use this.

I got a freebie sample at pole convention. I know Karol Helms swears by this stuff. The stuff I got its great of holds, your hands arent going anywhere in this stuff. I was also using it on brass so that might not of helped either.
-
I tried it when Karol was here – I was still slippery with it (I was also wearin like 10 other grip aids) – I am going to buy level 3 personally. Karol uses level 2.
You get a lot of product for your buck too.

Karol alsohad the mighty grip gloves and let us all try them – those were awesome too!

Heres stuff that I read on Karol Helms facebook https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_razz.gif
Peter (guy that sells itac) says:
"It seems that most people like the level 2 but depending oh how much you perspire the level 3 or 4 could be a better choice, i.e. you may need to experiment a little. If you want to order the level 2 to start I will include a level 4 sample too. I’ve been told a few times that the level 2 is best for hands and the level 4 works best for the legs."Karol Says:
"it only takes a tiny bit rubbed on the hands.. I use the level 2 and think its a perfect amount of tack. I rub it on my hands, then use my hands and rub them between my thighs, backs of knees, insideof the arms, and on the hips.remember, a lil goes a long way..!!"
And then I read that many pole dancers also use itac 4. So seems like you just have to figure out wich level works best for yourself.
So I just ordered both itac2 and itac4. Hope its good stuff https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif By the way I have never tried any of those grip aids.

I used Karols Itac2 last week-end and liked it. The 2 seemed to be a good level for me but I don’t sweat. or should say very very rarely sweat.
I also liked the gloves and might get some of them as well. I think sissybuns (house of pole) has both now.

i have used the itac2 & i liked it a lot! i only use a grip aid when i use spinny mode https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif & i could use 1 application for about 40 mins on spin! that is a long time compared to my experience with might grip. i also felt it was easier to clean off your pole in comparison to MG when cleaning with windex.
my hands are usually not sweaty & i feel that the MG would work best with sweatier hands since it is a powder… the iTac2 is a "wax" (i guess thats what you wound call it) & it worked really well on my dry hands https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif i had gotten a sample size from iTac2’s facebook a few months back, i’m not sure if they still have the offer up but if you might try contacting them for a sample before you spend the $$ since things work differently with each persons body https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif
ETA: i have a stainless steel pole

I’m selling level 2 right now but I’m going to be adding level 3 and 4 as well. I persoanlly only have lvl 2 which works great for me but I’m not a big hand sweater. I am, however, a big body sweater but haven’t had the chance to smeer the stuff all over my body yet though LOL. But I plan to!

Went ahead and placed an order from a place in the UK. Actually cost less even with shipping than the other 2 websites mentioned.
Can’t wait to try it out.

Hmm. I might have to try this–I have ridiculously sweaty hands, though, so I’m thinking I should maybe go for the level 3 or 4. I have the Mighty Grip gloves, and though they are helpful, my fingers sweat so much that I have to wear something under the gloves as well, or I can’t climb the pole because my fingers slip. The longest lasting grip aid I’ve found so far is liquid chalk, and I can’t slide down or spin in that. I’ve tried rubbing alcohol, Prince, No Sweat, Dry Hands, Grrip, prescription strength anti-perspirant, and probably some others that I’m forgetting, and I sweat through all of them in about a minute. It doesn’t help that it’s so damn hot here right now, either. Even with the air conditioner running full blast, I’m dripping like a pig (lovely imagery I know,) ten minutes into any workout.
How long does this stuff last on really sweaty people? Charley, let me know if it stays on you for a while–I remember you mentioning before that you sweat a lot too. I’m curious how it does with really, really sweaty people. I’m tired of sliding all over the place while I’m trying to transition into other moves on the pole. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_evil.gif

Hey HC,
I am still swearing by Tite Grip. I know you said anti perspirants haven’t worked for you, but have you tried putting them on a couple of hours before you pole? I noticed that my hands were really dry a few hours after class. So try using the anti perspirant earlier in the day. It seems to work for me much better. If I don’t use it I am a sweaty mess.
Also mixing dry hands and tite grip has been good for me too. I will tell ou what I think of Itac when I get it.
