There were a bunch of fakes that are selling on ebay for under $200.
Here are ways to tell:
1) The upper dome is made of plastic, it has black rubber around it and the silver section is very thin plastic. ( this will crack on pressure being applied)
2) The base is not articulating.
3) The base does not have our little X’s on them.
4) The joints are not welded together therefore they will come out and the pole will just be a tube.
5) The instructions are a photo copy and the DVD is also a bad copy.
6) There are only 2 ball bearings – this means the pole will not spin under pressure. -
I am 90 minutes pretty much from anywhere you are are talking so depending on when I am game.
Are there any studios near you? I know there is one opening in Sheffield Lake but that is a cruise from you. I also know of Dolphin Dance in Columbus and possibly one other in that area.

Corn Huskers Lotion and plain old aloe vera gel work wonders also and don’t have the slip factor that regular moisturizers contain. I have also heard that shaving cream helps but I have never tried it.

My favorite stuff to wear is a tank and a pair of shorts (the shorter the better). Seeing as it is your first class a t-shirt will be fine and you may even be able to get away with yoga pants. I would call the studio to find out.
As for flexibility…don’t worry. All instructors know how to work with all sorts of people (well, at least the should). For many people it is the first time they are exercising in years. You will be fine….just a forewarning, you WILL be addicted!

Runemist, Target has a line of undies from Gilligan & O’Malley that are decent, cover the "pooch", don’t roll, don’t ride and don’t camel. I have them in black and red (the turquoise and silver ones I bought are a size too small) and love them. They have a little sheen to them but nothing that screams "undies". My hips are about 42-43" and I wear the large comfortably. They come XL and XXL also. Seemless Boyshort . They come in a 2-pack for about $10.
Hanes also has boxer briefs made for women. They are a little strange because they have the crotch similar to men’s undies but sewn shut. I bought these in a bunch of colors and patterns from Walmart. They also sell matching tanks to these so you can look really cute and coordinated. Hanes Boxer Briefs. I am not sure what size I bought in these but I can look once I get home and report back.
I have the M/6.

Target has a LOT of cute boy short undies that can double as pole shorts. A lot of craft stores have rhinestone iron on designs and all sorts of fun iron on stuffs that you can customize the undies in any way you want.
I will warn though that there are some really cute ones with lace right now that will NOT hold up to pole dancing. I split mine last week during class. I bought them in purple and considered the grey/black ones. Glad I did not get them!

I cannot access the site here from work but there is also a forum called stripperweb which is all dancers. Kind of an inside scoop on different clubs, including clientele.
