Mine does that sometimes because my ceiling isn’t even. When the pole goes up straight it clunks. I have to have it on a slight angle to account for the ceiling slope and then spinny mode is quite smooth. Best to double check with X-pole though https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

Get photos of polers who inspire you and stick them up on the wall https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

I know Deb Riley who runs the Pole-o-mats site. She has said previously that she will ship the mat cover overseas so long as you can find foam where you are to fill it with, that would cut down on the shipping costs
The Pole-o-mats are fabulous too!

I don’t use anything on my bruises, they’re my trophies! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif
Seriously, if something hurt me, then I want to be able to say "I hurt myself, can you see the pain, look how big the bruise is!"

The reverse grab is probably the spin, when your body swings round the pole the wrist can sometimes rub on the pole, I had red wrists after I first learnt it.

I have a vid but it is a bit pants – my bunkbeds get in the way, so my flatline isnt a very flat line.
Instruction wise it’s a case of; from butterfly drop your bum down so you end up with one leg (the one on the pole during the butterfly) straight with the ankle hooked on the pole, and the other leg free. Now the free leg needs to hook onto the pole, then the straight leg can be taken off the pole.
Anyways here’s the vid, edited to leave out some horrendous freestyling https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif

Which leg is hooked on the pole? The inside or the outside? Sounds like you’re describing a flatline scorpio but I’m not entirely sure

I used a photo I had of me, cut me out, put it on a white background and upped the contrast, no drawing involved. I’d suggest finding a mate who is a wizz at photoshop https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

Aww, thank you all. Pole Twista, the silhouettes are mine, took me ages to do as I am without photoshop currently (although it probably wouldn’t have made me any quicker, lol)

Congrats, Azriel! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif I’m glad mine and Branquina’s tips worked

Basic Wiki Tutorial
1) Firstly create an account and sign in. Most of the pages in Wikipole have been protected so they can’t be edited by anonymous non-signed in users.
2) When logged in you should be able to see an edit button at the top of most pages (some will be further protected so only admins can edit them). Navigate to the page you wish to edit and press the edit button
3) The editing page should appear. At the top of the text box are buttons. From left to right these are; Bold, Italic, Internal link, External link, Headline, Embedding file, File link, Mathematical formula, Ignore wiki formatting, Signature with timestamp, Horizontal line.
4) To create a link to a new page simply click the internal link button, and type the page name. This will create a new page which you will be able to visit to edit once the save button is clicked. To create a link to an existing page do the same thing; click the internal link button and type the page name – make sure it is typed exactly the same.
5) If you want text to appear on different lines then a blank line will need to be left between the lower text and the higher text (press enter twice).
6) To add a photo to a page click the embedding file button and type whatever you wish to call the photo. For example if I was uploading a photo of the Cross Knee Release I would call the file Crosskneerelease.jpg (Note: this does not have to be the same as the file name of the photo you wish to upload). Further instructions can then be added separated with a | (press shift and \ on your keyboard for this symbol). So the code for any photos uploaded to the Moves/Spins directory should look like this:
]
Save the page and click on the red photo link, this will take you to a page where you can upload your photo.
7) To add an external link, click the external link button, paste/type in the link address, leave a space and then type in the text you wish to display the link with. So the code for an external link should look like this:
Any questions just ask me, and if it’s all still confusing arrange to meet me on msn or skype for a brief tutorial via a madonna style headset https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif

I just use my camera for filming, it’s good enough quality and it’s very very easy to transfer the vids to my computer https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

Thank you!
It’s like a Tammy (inverted thigh hold) but the free leg is pointing away from the pole (I’ve also head it called a no handed butterfly)

Moves are filling up, so if you’d like to get in on this the time to do it is soon!
For now I particularly need a thigh hold pic, dangerous brian pic, Dove, Drama queen, Taylor, Fiona, Flipped gemini, Goddess, chopstix, forward ankle release, basic invert, Skater, wrist sit, inverted crucifix, a bent legged inverted crucifix, Pantera’s Gemini (the heel licky type one), Peter Pan (move not a spin), Reiko splits, reverse gemini, split heel, starburst,
I would like videos of; basic invert, air invert, bum slide, caterpillar/caterpillar climb, Electric slide, Flag invert, hip swivels, Jamilla mount, Mermaid, Iguana, Peter pan drop, shoulder mount roll, reverse shoulder mount, side climb, pole climb,
Also I would like pics of any handstand, headstand and elbow stand variations you have
I’m planning on doing a spins directory once this one is sorted, so get your spins ready

I personally use my dominant hand on the bottom, but I do know people who use their non-dominant hand on the bottom. I’d suggest playing with it and working out what feels right for you
