    I will also participate next week. I haven’t had a computer for so long. I found out that using my phone to click links didn’t actually count as a visit, so I thought it would be unfair to post and then not be able to contribute. But! It looks like my new pc is working just fine 🙂 will get back to sharing on Sunday.

    The only issue I have with the mighty grip socks is that sometimes after long practices or heavy floor work my toes get irritated from the tight lining, but I naturally have poor blood circulation to the feet. I've never had an issue with the strips not lining up. I still use my socks for when I'm trying to learn moves on my bad side and I love them.

    Also, thank you to whoever bumped this thread…forgot to put these on my wishlist.

    I was convinced that I would be able to get my right splits but it's mid december and I haven't worked out a single time….maybe my Russian Gumbi Genes will kick in and I can get damn close, though 😛 I'm only about 4in off the ground on my right side now (which is a major improvement from my 12+ inches at the beginning of the year.)

    Like chem, I also do not think I have mastered a move unless I can do it without thinking. But I also must be able to get in or out of it in more than one way if applicable. Picture taking is a good way to measure too. But holding something like the iron x for 8 seconds must be hard :p

    I also consider mastering something to be a move that you could still do even if you were off the pole for more than a month. Like riding a bike.

    There’s no proof what so ever that burlesque performers (who had the pole before strippers, so the pole should actually be called a burlesque pole :p ) didn’t see the indian pole sport and make it suitable for adult american entertainment.

    I would inform him that stripping isn’t your occupation, and then call him an offensive word that he isn’t. Remind him that talking shit to people across the internet isn’t at all a positive role model for his kid, and makes him look like the douchebag. Pole fitness isn’t stripping just as EMT’S aren’t doctors. They both heal people and save lives, but it’s two different things.

    And there’s nothing wrong with stripping anyway. There’s tons wrong with prostitution, and some girls use stripping as a cover to whore themselves out, but these are the minority. If he see’s something wrong with this form of entertainment, fitness related, or exotic dance related, then he can get over it. If it was your husband’s sport pole I bet you 50 bucks he wouldn’t have said a word. But because you have tits and a vagina, it makes you a stripper. SMH. Owning a pole doesn’t make you a stripper anymore than owning a gun makes you a serial killer. Some people are just too dumb to understand this concept, and too narrowminded to understand pole as an art or sport. Your son is young, and can make handfulls of friends just by walking up and saying, “hi,do you want to be friends” at a playground. If this D-bag continues to harass you for your passion, apologize to you son and help him make a new friend. After all, our parents can be our worst or best influence. How long before her father starts starts pressuring her into his opinions of other people and she strts saying ugly things to your son?

    Use a stability board to evenly distribute pressure. And always put your pole on a stud if you can.

    That’s amazing. I’d assume it’s for more accent type pieces…so 3 yards would go a while depending on what you did. I’m cheap, though, and wha def look for alternatives, but what a fun idea!

    er…the image like is broken. The point of contact is the outside leg that is normally hooked in gemini? Or the leg that is straight and not hooked on the pole is the point of contact?

    I’ll take pictures when I’m home. Strap broke off of the shoe from one, and the heel snapped trying to do allegra on the other. I tried to extend my leg while the heel was around the pole….they were boots I bought like, 8 months.

    The last 45 days can go die in a ditch of burning lava and AIDS. I just broke not, ONE, but two pairs of work shoes. In ONE hour. I’m so stressed with the amount of money I’m spending today, I don’t want to have to spend $70 on shoes this weekend, so I really hope I win this week especially.

    I was about to go home, but then a co-worker is letting me borrow her shoes since she’ll going on vacation…..they’re cute, just not work shoes.

    Dance to something with a similar beat and slap a sound track over it.
