@TatianaSD It sounds bad! Lucky I did purchase the Silicone Xpole instead. Thanks for sharing your experience 🙂

@MIght Grip I have your gloves product and I really love them! The grip is amazing, however I feel that it’s a lil bit hard to slide down wearing the gloves as the hands get too sticky to the pole. I still love them anyway, been such a life saver for me.

Thanks for all the reply everyone! I’ve got my Silicone Xpole recently.
As expected, the grip is amazing. However, I rather confused of what kind of clothing I should wear. I tried leggings and yoga pants, it’s definitely a big no. The pants stick to the pole, while my skin doesn’t grip the fabric, so my body keeps sliding down. The pants stretched too much that I didn’t feel secure to do any upside down trick. I tried jeans, it worked fine but some moves become harder as the fabric is not flexible. Then I tried bare skin, surprisingly it worked much better than the pants or jeans, but whenever I slide down my skin burns so bad. So I ended up having some ripped skin over my right leg. Overall, I like my silicone Xpole, I just need to discover more. Hope I could find a suitable clothing soon!

I just purchased my pink silicone xpole yesterday, really can’t wait to receive it by next week. Def will post some video and review. Thanks for the advice girls, you rock!

@ambience24z9338 I believe it’s called a pretzel/ballerina spin. Make sure your hips are away from the pole so it’s easier to place your leg. Back and shoulders stretches will also help. Good luck on your pretzel spin! Post up your video once you achieve it 🙂

Here’s the pics of me trying out the silicone X-stage.

I’ve tried the silicone X-stage in a Xpole exhibition and it was not bad at all. The grip is wonderful. I wore a stretchy denim long pants and it was okay. I just find the size is a little bit too big for my hands as I originally wanted a 40mm brass pole instead. But yea, I think 48mm silicone is the smallest xpole offers?

I love the idea of silicone pole allows you to wear more clothing. And all poles in my studio are metal poles. I figured I could train a better spin with all the metal poles’ advantage in the studio, whilst still be able to learn a trickier pose at home with my silicone xpole 🙂

Thanks for the reply! Now I’m thinking to get the xpole too 🙂

Oh and I’d also add, I’m thinking to get

40mm brass + Pole sleeve –> 48mm ?
or 48mm Silicone Xpole

Is 48mm the smallest size of silicone xpole? my hands are very small.
