Agreed^^. It really just comes down to body chemistry, your geographical climate, and personal preference. I as well have had the chrome xpert and just recently( literally-it's still in the box lol) upgraded to the TG but my friend has one and I am ASTONISHED at how grippy it is-I did leg swithches from TOP to BOTTOM in JEANS!!! what the…??? haha i'll take it ^_^

The X-Pole design team are constantly innovating and improving our product and on many occasions we do not shout about it.
We have specifically designed and built a new polishing machine which has significantly improved the surface finish of all our poles, especially the Chrome. A higher polish and surface finish means higher grip. So, our latest Chrome poles have a much better grip factor than previously.
In addition, we have found over the last 6 months of testing that cleaning the Chrome poles with X-Clean which has been specially formulated for pole cleaning and gets off virtually any grip product, leaves the pole really clean and improves the Chrome pole grip even further.
Just recently at a UK competition X-Clean was used over 30+ performances and the competitors commented on how grippy the Chome poles were!
Sorry to say X-Clean is only available in USA at present keep watching the X-Pole web sites for when its released elsewhere. In UK will be hopefully October latest.

I dont have a studio near where i live or i would go to one. I heard good things about TG poles and thats why i was considering getting one. I have a chrome pole and it is slippery alot of the times. I am wanting a pole that will provide more grip. but also be good with my body type and climate. I have very sweaty hands when i pole so i was also going to try dry hands. Thanks

TG is not a good option for sweaty people! Brass works well, but then can be temperamental in cold weather. But it might be a good option if you sweat even in the cold weather. I've been really sweaty with the heat and humidity here, and my SV pole is working out really well. It's been the least temperamental pole I've had and I have every finish.

brass is better for sweaty hands than any of the other finishes, imo. You may still slide, but the added grip helps counteract that a bit. If you get really tacky on the body, the pole can really over grip on the body and that starts to suck. lol. For me, brass has good grip in all weather, but I am a sticky girl!

I'm really sweaty and my favorite finish – though I haven't tried brass – is TG. I prefer it to the chrome that I use when I go to the studio.
