    I totally agree with Saphyre! 

    I have been encouraged from others in the past that I should try to work through it and not rely on grip aids.  I can see the reasoning behind this, so you don't become reliant on it.  I can see where it could help you gain more grip strength without using it.  And I do know using grip aids does NOT give you strength. I wish it did. HaHa! 

     But If you feel more secure with it, then use it! I live in New Orleans, Louisiana and winters are almost non-existant here. Its always hot and humid.  

    75% of the time I would not have a productive pole session if I do not use dry hands.

    one of the studios near me, teaches inverts the first day you go…….. one girl was teaching a elbow stand to a CAR sit up, and i piped in and said that move is NOT a beginner move and that it is a toughy… The teacher told me, "OH NO ITS NOT" and then when she went to demonstrate to the student, she fell on her head… I laughed out loud, and she just looked at me… I couldn't contain myself. I don't ever wish bad or that someone gets hurt, but thats what she got for being rude to me and thinking she knows everything

    The studio that I started at and absolutely LOVED, closed down a year ago.. But she had her setup in a old, historical building in the french quarter with genuine, old cherry colored wood floors. Super tall ceilings, and she was suppose to get large mirrors but that new happened before she closed. It was very well lit, but I like that in a studio.

    The space was beautiful and so was her instruction. Now she lives out of state.
    She was New Orleans only hope for continued quaility pole instruction, and now shes gone. Still breaks my heart.
    Good luck with the studio makeover

    i played last night and thought about you lyme… since we seem to have the same issue… my house and heater was on 82 degrees and i didn't have an issue with the pole itself, but by then i was sweating and sliding…. there is no win win right now with this weather…

    great question cherished!
    i am also very curious to order bobbis portable pole from australia which is really a pussycat pole that bobbi made removable that she now sells.
    its australian made and they are not a large company so maybe their brass is better?
    I jusr dont have the 800$ for it right now… they are a lot more pricey and I dont even want to know what it will cost to ship the thing…
    after buying the pole and shipping i could have bought a stage

    wow! i havent done all of these… but i tried cramers the other day and it worked for a little while but then got slick again… i use a shit load of dry hands so i can grip… but then my hands get too dry and makes poling unenjoyable-because at that point my hands arent the problem, the pole is.
    although I do battle with sweaty hands, the pole has been a pain the last few months.. it waa great during the summer
