Yeah, fuck you people. You’re all talentless and borderline retarded apperantly.

[ErinMarieOMG]

Clearly anyone who wants to enter knowing all that, more power to you, but the people who were asking didn’t sound like they wanted to competing against strippers in a nude humping contest. I’m simply telling you what this ACTUALLY is since miss pole champ clearly misrepresented it.

[ErinMarieOMG]

Veena this is called MISS POLE DANCE not Miss Hottie stripper. This would imply POLE DANCING is required.

Also, I’m sure you haven’t looked at the score sheet since seem to enjoy being missinformed so you can start rediculous arguments with me, but 50% of the score was based on POLE only 30% on sensuality and 20% on overall, so how someone who doesn’t know how to pole dance can place is beyond me.

Now that I’m done defending myself for the second night in a row against a so called pole professional, I wil leave with nothing else to say. It seems people on this website don’t want actual answers or opinions that do not fit with Veena’s amazingly magical ways.

Why you continuous start arguments with me over trivial things when I am right I don’t know, but I am simply trying to inform the girls who asked as to what exactly this competition is, a compeition for waving your naked butt. Girls who got on the pole also got totally naked but didn’t place either.

[ErinMarieOMG]

Aside from this, I am absolutely disgusted that a so called “pole champ” wouls want to portray pole dancing this way, and basically confirm to all our critics that we are all strippers with no artistic or athletic ability.

Miss Pole Champ USA is a SCAM. The girls who work at the clubs perform nude and win regardless of talent. It is a STRIPPING contest NOT pole dancing.

I drove out from Los Angeles only to have me and the 5 girls who did not work at the hosting club not even place, which is funny since 5 people got on the pole and we made up 4 of them. The girl who won deserved a prize, but her win was cheap because of the rauchy, disgusting display of this so called “competition.”

The judges with pole experience magically couldn’t come, so they were replaced by 4 guys who run a party bus company. None of the judges knew anything about pole dancing and even commented to customers that they had no idea what they were supposed to be judging.

The fact that ONLY girls who worked at the club won anything, even though all the second prize winner did was a layout… about 10 times, its pretty clear this is a scam to bring attention to Nic’s favorite clubs.

Then she had the audasity to tell me I looked nearvous and my moves were poorly executed. At least I HAD moves. But this isn’t about me, its about the five LEGIT pole dancers who didn’t even place. I was also informed I probably didn’t place because I “didn’t climb to the top of the pole.” A pole 16″ tall, NOT an x-pole and that id never seen or been on before

By the way, the owner of the club gave the judges “gifts” at the competition. We were also not allowed by the venue to see or walk on the stage beforehand, but clearly the girls who worked there would already know the stage.

There will be several releases and blogs about this I am sure, but I will tell you this, from experience: IF YOU HAVE REAL POLE TRICKS AND ANY ONCE OF DIGNITY AND SELF RESPECT, DO NOT ENTER THIS. YOU WILL ONLY LOSE TO GIRLS WHO GO NAKED AND RUB THEIR VAGINAS IN THE JUDGES FACES, YET ONLY KNOW ONE POLE TRICK.

That's how I learned it, coming down out of it instead of going up.  I learned shoulder mounts the same way.

I have way too much flexibility in my back and shoulders and often not the muscles to compensate even though I'm ripped :/

Have you tried starting on the opposite side of the pole than you want to lift on, grabbing the pole, then keeping your hand on it while walking  in front around the pole to the other side?  Just grab the pole and walk forward to the other side and duck under your arm.  This is the easiest way to try the TG without hurting yourself.  If you do it a few times per practice and the pain doesn't get better, then your arm and shoulder problems probably just won't allow you to do it.

There are other moves it is entirely needed for, but you do not need to handspring into them.  You can twisted grip shoulder mount, it's possible to extended butterfly in TG, the "swoosh" HAS to be in twisted, and if you can iron X without being twisted, you're probably Jesus or something.

Yes, beginner Veena.  It's far more stable because your hands are facing two differant directions minimizing the chances of slipping of the pole.  I don't know any advance pole dancers who use a twisted grip except in the twisted grip shoulder mount.

If it doesn't work for you, don't do it, but it should NOT hurt.  This is probably because of the issues already going on with your arm.  I personally have a lot of shoulder flexibility and fall directly out of the regular grip.

Girl join a studio.  It's like a family.  Unless you join the wrong studio, then it's more like Animal House.

[ErinMarieOMG]

Use level 2.  I've noticed no difference between 2 and 4, and quite frankly, preferred level 2.  Use it every day.

[ErinMarieOMG]

Twisted grip is actually quite natural. The push and pull action needed for moves like handsprings are much easier in this grip, though you might find your prefer the regular grip or chinese.  If it hurts, you're doing it wrong, ask someone at your studio or another pole dancer in person how to do it.  Your arm might just not bend that way, but I find the twisted grip WAY more stable than other grips.  In LA, it's very much considered a beginner grip.
