Shhhhhhhhh! I have spent WAAAY too much money this year on pole dancing accessories! Seriously I could be driving a new car! But for the record I love my gold sparkly American Apparel shorts. Not UK but maybe their shipping is more reasonable?

I loooooooooooooooooove glitter on popcorn ceilings! Seriously, my grandma had the most pimped out 70’s house with glitter ceilings, velvet walls and lavender bathroom fixtures. It was so cool! Maybe it’s just me being nostalgic, but throwing glitter on wet paint sounds like a fantastic idea.

Oh P.S. Action poles make the poles for Aradia and the reason they look so small is because they are! Action poles make 38mm poles (like the ones@ Bobbi’s) as far as I know no one else in North America makes a 38. They defiantly have their advantages but Action Poles don’t have a spinning option (if they did I would buy one)

Second post on this thread! I read somewhere on the forum that PS will make your pole top loading if you ask nice. I would recommend top loading over bottom. There are a few moves that you can do at the top of the pole (ie. Death Lay) but for the most part you will use the bottom more than the top (handsprings, Ayshas, anything split grip) so while I think bottom loading poles are a nice idea in theory, they don’t work as well as you would hope in practice.

If you are really sweaty try Tite grip before iTac. Also if you use clinical strength anti-perspirants on your hands before bed it will help with excessive sweating. As for the caterpillar you need to have a solid inverted crucifix.
P.S. I loove iTac it is a great tool to have, but it’s not the best for sweaty hands. -
I have an older ( top loading) PS pole and I loooove it! I got it off kijiji so I can’t comment on the customer service aspect. Although the girl I got it from told me they sent her a free extension when she told them she didn’t feel comfortable with the amount of screw showing when her pole was at the max out of the box height. I have experienced all 3 major brands and I would say hands down PS feels the most secure. The studio I go to has lil mynx and they have come down on me 3 times doing spins. I would not get a lil mynx pole. The X Pole I used felt flimsy, (I think the metal is thinner then PS) but it did not crash to the ground the way the lil mynx did. That being said SS is REALLY slippery at first but the more you use it the better it gets. You just need awesome grip aides to help break it in. Also I love how PS poles transition from static to spinning. You can do it in the middle of a routine and no one will notice. My 2 year old can do it (and does, often while I am in the air).

Of course you should post it! You started a thread about it so obviously you feel strongly about it. Your BF may not understand the nature of SV, we are all supportive of each other regardless of level or proficiency. I can assure you that Veeners will have something positive to say, and I think you should definitely do it.

The chopper/inverted V kicked my ass for a looooooong time. Chin ups helped ALOT! Other than that, check your form. The chopper is easier if you keep your top hand at chin level then drop your arms into it once you get your butt up. The chopper was for me the toughest essential move. Give it time. You will get it!

OMG! I have been trying to do it the hard way. I am really close to getting the Extended Aysha the hard way, this might be all I need to nail it. Thanks Charley and lilblondie!
