Par for the course unfortunately (or fortunately depending on how you look at it). When I am 130 I'm a C. 120, down to big B but down to B and 115, small B w/ stretch marks https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_confused.gif All I can say is Oh Well. I am usually happy at 115 b/c I like the way my entire body looks there. But for boobage purposes my friends and the world tell me I look better at 120 than 115.
My butt gets noticably bigger and smaller, too https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cool.gif

I am a strong advocate for learning everything on both sides. However everything has it's limits. There are some things I may never do on the other side but if it's a matter or strength or flexibility I will push myself to get it on both sides. If it's a matter of re injuring an old injury I may let myself slack if I have something on one side. Definitely a minimum of basic invert on both sides will go a long way.

OMG how neat and amusing at the same time. Anyone here ever do that before?

I am glad you brought this up and do not wish to highjack your thread, however I have heard that both the brass and ss from X-pole are brushed which is supposed to be "enhanced grip". I have worked on brushed ss and it was never possible for me personally to grip it. Ever. Even with DRYHANDS. I am wondering if anyone has had experience with either of the two or if both and found the brass is grippy but the ss is not, or they are both not grippy…. I wish I could explain why brushed isn't grippy but I really don't know enough about that kind of stuff. I just know what works for me so far.

Um…what is juicing? In the weight-lifting world that's slang for 'roids but I'm pretty sure that's not what you are refferring to….

I always inverted with the pole on my left side which would have made it so I had to be able to pull my left leg for jade but I didn't have my left split. I decided it would take a lot less time to learn to invert on the other side than get my left split. I was right I learned the other side invert in about 2 months but it took another two years to get my left split. So yeah, you gotta learn it on the other side. Good luck with it, stick with it, it will happen.

What kind of pole do you have? What material and diameter?

A lot of times I will pole before I showere for the day, which means there is still lotion on from the day before. Lately I've tried showering right before I pole without putting lotion on but still, no good.
I wonder if temperature is a factor, I mean outside temp. Moved from Maryland to Florida and I do not recall the pole being this bad when it was winter and cold outside. It seemed to be worse in the summer when I got it two years ago….

I must use lotion after I get out of the shower or my skin will be very itchy and get kinda flaky so I guess it is dry. I usually have no problem sticking to brass though….

Out of curiosity… does a magnet stick to your pole?

I have the exact same pole, I've had it for two years and I hate it so much I'm getting another pole. I used to joke about being grateful for something I hate (the pole) but I'm not even grateful anymore because it's downright dangerous. I have absolutely had enough, I've tried grip aids, gloves, boots, upping the temp, lowering the temp nothing works. I can't understand how so many people love that pole. I realize that skin types are different and that is the only thing I can come up with to explain why people prefer that pole. To me it's downright frustrating and very uninspiring. I love it's portability but feel it is very dangerous to work on. One girl on here got hers powder coated so maybe you can try that. Having said all that, I refuse to get mine powder coated and won't sell it either b/c though I feel it is unworkable now, that does have a lot to do with the fact that I am trying to get so many new things and working on getting better, if/when it is time to train for a performance…yes I will bust out with the chrome devil again b/c I think it's the best preparation for performance esp. when you cannot control the environment or how the pole will feel for the performance. Let us know what you do and how it works out for you.

That's freakin' great! I haven't the back flexi to do it but I wonder if setting up and trying for it will be an exercise to help with back flexi.

Nice outfit! To wear for work or as a customer? Either way you can get away with it in that environment.
