So awesome and so pricey. Wish I could find something similar but more affordable!

Korinne, if you’re looking for a spinning pole, I have an x-pole, x-pert I’m looking to sell. $275+shipping (paid nearly $400, new).

Cirque has a couple of shows in Vegas that has more “wow” value (Ka, Beatles, MJ) from what I hear but my favorite is Zumanity. They have a pole act that used to be performed by Felix Cane but it looks like she’s doing the MJ tour now.

One Lil’ Mynx 50mm Stainless Steel and one 50mm chrome X-Pert X-Pole for sale.

Not in Alabama but I have a 50mm chrome xpole and a 50mm stainless steel lil mynx available. The xpole would probably be easier to ship. Let me know if you’re interested.

An app would help reduce in the number of tabs I have open. I current have 28 tabs for my browser and can guarantee that at least three are for sv. If I get an email notification that someone responded to a thread, clicking the link opens yet another tab. Having an app would help declutter my browser.

50 mm x-pole x-pert here. Looking to sell in the SF/Bay Area. Willing to ship if shipping is covered.

I would love to see a studioveena app to make using this site while on the go. I’m rarely on a laptop/PC outside of work so I’m usually browsing on my phone. SV already has a great mobile website but having that on an app would give users easier access.

I have a 50mm x-pert (spinning/static). Not exactly what you’re looking for but message me if you’re interested.

Realized there was a mistake in the posting. The lil’ mynx is adjustable up to 8’5, not 9’5.
-
I had a Lil Mynx (one-piece) that was custom cut for my 7’5″ and adjustable up to 8’5″ but the usable space is up to whatever you have it cut to. That’s one of the reasons I switched out of a Lil Myxn. Didn’t like the thought that if I changed ceiling heights, the usable pole cannot be increased.
I went with an x-pole as my second pole. It worked for the 7’5″ ceiling and I’ve used it up to 9′ with no problem. That’s what I love about x-pole, it’s adjustable to many heights and you don’t lose usable space.

Not married but I used to wear rings on a normal basis. I’ve come to the conclusion (and have discussed with my SO) that I would need to get a nice chain and wear my engagement/wedding rings around my neck. He’s not too thrilled with the idea but I have a history of losing rings once I take them off so it’s the safest bet.

Monicaspoleworld, that's unfortunate. I understand the feeling of being a closeted poler. I've only been able to share the joys of pole dancing with my close friends (mainly female) and very select family members. I found that the best way to discuss pole dancing with a skeptic is to share pole-positive videos and blogs.

Very thought out response. Much more well-written than anything I’ve seen this far. I like how the bottom even addresses how should try pole dancing, albeit at particular studio, as it could change her mind. As a scholar, she should know better than to publish a piece without first doing research.
After reading the Psychology Today post it immediately reminded me of another post I saw earlier in the year about the opposite mindset – reclaiming the pole. A good response to anyone who says that women pole dance to spice up their bedroom or that they just see a pole and want to grind on it: “Having a pole in your bedroom to spice up your sex life is as close to pole dancing as me riding my bike to grab a newspaper is to Olympic cyclists.” – http://soulearthling.wordpress.com/2013/03/30/reclaiming-the-pole-and-the-mat/
For me, pole dancing is much more personal. It practically saved my life to some degree. Reading the Psychology Today article came with a bit of unhappiness but mainly sadness that someone could so harshly judge something without first giving it a try.
I challenge every skeptic out there to take pole dancing for a spin or at least read something positive about it to see how pole dancing does empower women.
