    Gold has a surface that sticks to your skin more than the chrome. The chrome still sticks though, don’t worry. I prefer the chrome just so I could get used to working on most surfaced poles, and I think it looks better in my living room. That’s just personal preference though. 50mm is good because it give you more width on you pole to have you skin stick to…and most places that have poles, 50mm is standard. Again, it’s all about preference. Some girls with smaller hands prefer 45mm for better grip https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif

    Maybe if I talk to my fiance about it we can host one at my house. I have a decent sized living room, If any one else has portable poles, i think we could fit two more in here on joists. There could be three poles total if we wanted https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

    I’m sort of brand new..I’ve been doing it for a month and a half now, and On my friends list, Joanie is super new https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif I’m not new to floor work because before I got preggo and had my daughter I worked in a cabaret for a little while…But I never had the guts to try tricks then because I felt I wouldn’t make a lot of money if I was falling on my behind in front of people trying to do stuff I didn’t know https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif

    so Far I can do most spins gracefully except the rockstar…I look like a bloody mess trying to do that one. My reverse grab and corkscrew look wonderful though https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif I’ll try to list moves I’ve done successfully so far..I won’t list spins because there’s too many:
    The pole sit, the pole climb,The crucifix, The inverted crucifix, The gemini (with and without hands), Scorpio (with and without hands), The chopper, the half chopper, The tucked sit, Cross ankle release, The plank, the wrist sit, The knee climb, The caterpillar, The maiden head, The mermaid, And my cross knee release…I can do it, but it hurts the hell out of my tailbone (if you haven’t already seen my thread)

    That’s when my tailbone hits the pole is when I’m doing the layback, not before….So I’m assuming it’s normal then? https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

    I have a chrome x-pole…and I can tell you its not slippery..unless it’s just cold because I haven’t warmed it up yet. once it’s warmed up though, I feel like I could sit on it for hours…and I’m no expert https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif

    It might hurt your hoo-ha if you hit it against the pole…Very uncomfortable. But I think you just need to find the right position. You want to be sitting on a meaty part of your thigh…It will hurt the first few times…After a while it becomes second nature. You’ll know when you’ve found the spot I’m talking about. i use green works windex on my pole to clean it and it tends to help a lot for grip. You also want to make sure your pole is "warmed up" before you try sitting on it. Do some spins and things to get it warm, That way your skin sticks to it when you climb up it. You won’t stick to a cold pole. I hope that helps https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

    Your first time on the pole can be a little unforgiving sometimes…I felt like I’d never be able to climb the pole gracefully My first day..a few days later I was climbing it all day. Some great exercises are Push-ups! Another great one for building up strength and pole awareness is practicing handstands against your pole! Try wrapping your legs in different positions, splits…Practice the "Butterfly" move in a handstand position.

    Another one that’s great for your back muscles, and arms is to find a sturdy chair or a table, With you back to the chair (or table) go into a "sitting on a chair" position, with your arms behind you, Bracing the edge of the surface. Using your arms, Lower yourself down, and then back up into a "seated" position.

    Practice those spins! The do build strength and pole awareness! And try practicing climbing the pole often, and when you’re ready, Sitting on it https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif If you are really new to pole, It’s not a bad idea to invest in pole shoes with ankle straps! The material is made to stick to the pole, and makes climbing it one billion times easier!lol! I’m sure Veena has a lot of lessons that could help you with strengthening as well. She has the whole system set up really well https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif

    April 6, 2010 at 4:30 am in reply to: Space & Pole

    Enough space to where you can stick your arms and legs out from the center of the pole, in a complete circle around the pole…Top and bottom, So keep light fixtures in mind. You don’t want to spin around your pole and start knocking over everything you own https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif
