    I learned it from Veena's floor method. I practiced from the ground for a few days with the cup grip because it took me less strength than the V grip. I also thought I was a long way off from doing it but I wanted to see how far off of the ground I could get when standing and I just ended up going all the way.

    Another thing that helped to get it was to use a grip aid. After I had to relearn it without but I just wanted the extra ease and security at first.

    Thank you Amy – I'm glad to have some direction on this finally. I love your blog by the way πŸ™‚

     

    Also thank you Sensualscimitar πŸ™‚ I will try your tips. My quads seem to be flexible enough but the undulations will probably take me some time!

    Someone asked this question on yahoo and someone else offered alternative advice. I don't know if it fits your situation but it might be worth a look:

    Here are a few comments from another forum about botox for hands

    Also what about having a few pairs of grip gloves and switching them during a pole session when one starts getting too slippery?

    I'm not sure what the rules are here but I personally think posters who insult other members should be banned or at least have their post edited or deleted. I've noticed when inappropriate comments were made towards other members here it was dealt with very quickly and the comment was removed so I don't think that Webmaster should have to put up with insults directed towards him when he and V take time to keep us protected from such abuse. A difference of opinion is great but bashing another person is not. I also see this as trolling.

    Great thread πŸ™‚  I want to say thank you to Veena and Webby as well. I love this site. I have advanced so much with the lessons. I learn so much info about pole from the forum and appreciate a place where my interests are shared by a whole community. Definitely very grateful to have come across StudioV.com!!!

    January 6, 2012 at 1:40 am in reply to: Platinum Stages and X-Pole Side By Side Demo

     

    For myself, I did find that the video seemed more about why the Xstage is better than the PS stand alone than a product review of both. However, this is not a healthy debate. 

    If Payton feels PS is better then where are the points on what makes it a better choice? For example: because the PS is lighter and has a shorter set up time it might be more convenient for travel as opposed to "who needs to see Veena's husband?". Name calling is unacceptable.  I actually did like the stability test, there are women of all sizes who pole dance who might want to see someone of Webmaster's size do a demo.

      

     While I do think Xpole was shown in a better light, the video did not make any false statements about the PS pole. 

    I just would've preferred pros and cons of each. Amcut highlighted a few pros that could've used some focus in the video in my opinion.  Also some faults of the Xpole were mentioned in this thread too. 

     

    So Payton while you did say things that were valid to me – I found the point about PS poles being used at bespun interesting as that was something I didn't know before and I am interested to see Felix's demo to see what can be done safely on the stand alone and what type of usage someone can get out of the pole.

    Your approach was too negative. You don't need to sugarcoat but you don't need to be rude and hostile it takes the same amount of energy as being a kiss *ss. You could've made your points without doing either.

     

    I am a PS fan and have not used an Xpole. I love my pole and hope PS continues to improve. I think they've greatly improved their customer service by adding Erica to their team. I hope they fix the issues with the stand alone.

    I would check if the instructors or students have posted videos on youtube so you can see a demonstration of their skills and pick from which style you like the best. You can also see if any of the schools offer teaser/sampler classes or open house evenings.

    Oh Finreah I didn't see your post when I pretty much repeated what you said lol I forget what the directions for Tendskin say but I just use it if I have an ingrown hair to get rid of it but i think some use it beforehand as a preventative measure.

    Another possibility could be ingrown hairs. If I get any of those from waxing I use Tendskin and it always works for me. Another thing you can do is make sure to exfoliate the area with a loofah.

    Essayez Google Translate. Il n'est pas parfait mais il peut aider. Je l'ai utilisé pour vous répondre parce que mon français est limité et je suis encore à apprendre http://translate.google.com/#fr|en|
