I would contact Sissy and see if she has any more info. Empy I think is still in Jamaica.

This page on the X-Pole UK site says it won’t be available until spring:
I’d imagine that the UK would have it available before the US, so… https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_confused.gif

Ah yes, good observation. I’m an idiot (but we already knew that) https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_tongue.gif I’m surprised some sort of update hasn’t been posted since then, though… https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_confused.gif

I have the Star Stand Alone, and at first it was HUGE pain to get together.. when UPS dropped it off, it was spilled all over the back of the truck. (It was stupid for me to even accept the shipment, I know.. but I was SO excited! I had waited for it for months)
So the top of the base plate had to be hammered down into place because it got effed up in the back of the UPS truck, so the locking pin to make the pole static was not fitting into place, and the pole would go into spinny mode mid-spin, when you weren’t expecting it.
And I had a problem getting all the base plates to snap into place.. But eventually, I was able to get them all in. As mentioned above, the poles come unscrewed if you spin left. And if you screw the poles SUPER tight, then they get stuck together and you HAVE to spin left just to unscrew them..
And also, I paid extra for the "canvas carrying case w/ wheels," but only 1 of the carrying cases has wheels on it… And they are too limp to even work right! Because the sides of the cases are not hard, the weight of the pieces inside the cases will tip the whole thing over onto it’s side. And I never did figure out how all the pieces fit into the carrying cases, so the base plate is currently just laying on the floor in my bedroom.. It does not fit into the cases with all the pie wedge base plates & the metal feet of the base.
And it’s extremely heavy. I don’t know how heavy the X Stage is, but I would imagine that it is heavier than the Star pole (which is SUCKISHLY heavy)
So it has it’s flaws.. If X Pole made an X Stage that wasn’t so tall/far off the ground, then I would have bought theirs. But the X stage was just too high. And I wanted a pole with varying heights. (8′ normally, but I bought the 2′ extension)
