I feel your pain.. I have hyperhydrosis as well and nothing works. I’ve tried every grip aid I can find including mighty grip, tite grip, dry hands, dirty girl poltice, rock climbing chalk, prince grip, itac, everything basically and none of them work.. Sometimes I might get 5 or 10 mins without gloves when I use tite grip but I’m still constantly wiping my hands even then.. I manage to sweat through the gloves and have to get a new pair roughly every 4 weeks.. Gloves have been the only thing that help me feel secure in handsprings as I have fallen badly before
The dermatologist I saw said they don’t really do Botox in the hands over here anymore because it isn’t effective. It is more effective under your arms etc
Good luck finding something.. I’m hoping to try the Drionic one day -
I swear it helps!

If I think of it I’ll post a video of me doing it lol

Raven did you also learn how to pray to the Spatchcock gods with Felix?? I did a workshop with her last year and its an important aspect from the floor haha

Lilred they do have a pair covered in sequins but you can’t pole in them 🙂

I’ve always done that too and I had someone tell me it was wrong because it puts strain on the tendons in the index finger.. I feel like that might happen from overuse like with any muscle or if you weren’t strong enough through the rest of your hand/arm
I’d rather have my wrist aligned and feel stronger in my grip any day 🙂 Magic finger FTW -
they are awesome! I got mine at Poledance Academy when they lady that makes them was there and they are soo good!

Aw I’ll have to do this when I get home tomorrow! I have green short leg warmers and top 😀

Do whichever one you enjoy the most I say.. They both have pros and cons 🙂

I lost my dog after last week after the neighbours dog dug a hole under our fence and bit him.. He was my furbaby, my family and my only compainion (hubby works away)
Pole and the girls at my studio are the only thing that has gotten me through the past week (officially a week today) Losing yourself in a song or concentrating on a trick really does help.. I’d be a mess without pole -
I had pain in my lower ribs and it apparently came from the fact that instead of using my core I was using only my abs and they were starting to tighten and pull my ribs out of place.. Good reminder to ensure you always engage your whole core..

try searching under leg warmers? 🙂

I didn’t go near twisted grip (except shoulder mount) until about 2.5 years in to my pole journey and I’ve not had any issues with it ***TOUCH WOOD***
I believe that it had alot to do with my body being trained and muscle developed enough to support the odd positioning of my shoulder in the move. I favour twisted grip because I actually fell out of SG and broke my collarbone in 2012 however I still try not to overdo it and if I feel the muscle start to tighten I back away.. I actually have more issues with my bottom arm in the forearm from pushing! :/ silly bodies -
I’ve been trying for 3 years and it’s still not consistant.. Don’t push it too hard as it is very easy to injure yourself.. Listen to your body and have patience 🙂
