So the vaulted mount is the only thing that gets screwed in permanently, right? Other than that, X-pole set up should be the same? We just bought a house with vaulted ceilings, too! And is that something I should be able to do myself fairly easily? I assume I'd need a studfinder to locate the beam and drill right into it, yes?

Wow. I've never seen this guy before!!! He's sooooo good! And it doesn't hurt that he's good-looking. 😉

Out of curiosity, does anyone have a picture of their mount and the added plank? We just bought a house with a vaulted ceiling, too. =/

That's awesome! We're hoping to close on the 28th!!! Just need to get everyone's input on finishes and the vaulted ceiling thing before I pull the trigger on a shiny new pole. =D

I was a stripper for a little while!
Profession: I work in retail sales. I was working as a receptionist, though, when I first started stripping.
Education: I started out as a Biology major, but now I'm a Marketing major. Switching majors added a year and a half to my sentence before I graduate. =/
Why I was a stripper: Curiosity. I looooved pole dancing, and I was curious about being a stripper. So I decided to try it (after discussing it with my then-boyfriend and now husband). After four days of sleep deprivation and smoke-filled lungs, I decided it simply wasn't for me. But it was fun while it lasted! There's something kind of liberating.My inner exhibitionist really wanted to get out. That's what happens after you leave Catholic school, I guess.

So my wonderful, wonderful boyfriend bought me an X Stage Lite for my birthday. And it's shiny and new, and I love it.
But I have a problem.
The ceilings in my boyfriend's apartment are too low. -headdesk-
I'm willing to work around this tragedy. I want to take the pole to a park. Does anyone here in the US know the laws about parks? Will people get mad and report me or something? Ya think they'll go out of their way to make trouble? Are they legally allowed to? As long as I'm fully dressed, I don't see how they could….
Anyhoot. Input appreciated. As well as other pole-friendly location suggestions.

Yay! Another Georgian. Welcome to SV. I'm sure your background in gymnastics will come in handy.

Just got my Pole Physics in a week ago, and I'm in looove with it. I did notice that the pump is pretty pitiful, though. It only squirts out the teeeeniest amount each time you pump. So I'll be replacing that, but the lotion itself is awesome. That and the itac2 stuff. I got level 2 and 3, and I'm super thrilled with it so far, even if it does smell kinda funky.

Good luck with that…. I looked for ages for somebody in Atlanta with a pole to sell, and I didn't find anyone. Eventually I just decided to order from x-pole directly.

Yay! Well if ya'll have facebook, I'd love to keep in touch. =D
-
Definitely! That would be so much fun. Been dyin for a pole buddy around here.
=D

Congrats!!! I just got mine too! Not exactly close to Augusta though. I'm about three hours away in Atlanta. =/

Everyone's got such neat stories!
MIne's pretty simple, really. I was looking for fun ways to stay fit. I tried Crossfit for a while, and I LOVED it, but on my college student budget, membership at the Crossfit gym was pretty cost prohibitive. Eventually I stumbled on a website for a pole studio here in Atlanta, GA. I casually mentioned it to my boyfriend at the time:
"I don't know if I should spring for the $250 pole classes, or just buy a month's membership at the Crossfit gym," is I think the gist of what I said.
His jaw pretty much dropped, and he said, "POLE CLASSES! Definitely something I'd be willing to subsidize." And a week later I was enrolled in a pole class which turned out to be addictive.
I just ordered my brand spanking new 50mm TG X-Pert last night. I can't wait for it to be delivered!
