    UVA- Look up subluxation of the extensor carpi ulnaris (ECU) tendon. Sounds like what you may be describing.

    Sorry, I can’t afford 370+ shipping to the US for a pole that doesn’t spin. :/

    So far, all I’ve seen is just practice… I’ve been doing it for years and mine still feels not entirely secure- sometimes I lose balance and have to drop into an inside leg hang. I would suggest to not do it over and over again cause it can be really rough on the ribs!

    I’m interested in your action pole. Is the it removable? I haven’t seen how they set-up yet. How much are you looking for it? Would you ship to the US?

    If you’re having so much trouble with landing on the base, you could put some cushioning on it.

    I don’t know if I’m the only one, but I think they’re harder than handstands. I can do headstands and handstands quite comfortably, but I hate forearm stands so I’ve been working on them a lot lately. They require a shitton of strength!

    I did not like Cleo’s dvd. That’s why I was looking for something different that focuses on flexibility.

    I always ask now because I’ve been disappointed before!

    Maybe they changed the fragrance since I last used it years ago!

    Prince grip smells like fruit loops. I like that in a grip aid.

    I’m a huge fan of the squat stand method Chemmie mentioned! I have had many students say that they weren’t able to figure it out any other way… Another point- I make sure they can go back and forth in a squat stand without letting the pole slide into their upper thighs.

    I can’t stand wearing closed toed shoes without socks. Like Charley, I am an ungodly stink beast, no matter what…

    Platinum Stages makes excellent poles but their customer service is atrocious. They are by far my favorite to use, but I hate the company so much I switched to LM for my home pole.

    I like to clean new SS poles with pure acetone a couple times. Seems to work a little better than alcohol at first and should not damage stainless steel.
