Hi from Baltimore, Kaygee10 and all the Maryland polers!!!  A lot of Veeners have sung the praises of Xpose in this area, too, in Towson…It's a loooong bus ride from the city but I really enjoyed my one visit there!

Three months with SV lessons.  I had a pole before then, but wasn't poling.  Just flailing 😀

Thanks for the suggestions 🙂  I'll try them out and see how it goes!!

Do you think toothpaste (or alcohol wipe down) might help if the grip problem isn't sweating, but cold pole/skin?  Any ideas?  My apartment gets really cold in early autumn before the heat's turned on, and I can't do the sitting/climbing/crucifix I could do last week (before it got cold!).  Today I did SV's basic warm up and then the pole strength routine, and I could do them for a little bit (yay!), but then my pole and skin cooled off pretty quickly and I started sliding down again…At least, I hope that's what's up, and I didn't just lose my strength all of a sudden!!!  Can't wait for our heat to turn on – I need to climb lol!

Haha same here!  So happy to have joined SV and finally started really learning…And come to think of it I day-dream about poling all the time when I'm supposed to be doing other things 😉

I DAY-dream about poling when I'm trying to fall asleep so I can get up for work…cuz I'd rather be poling than going to bed!
