Believe it or not, it came down to something as stupid as me not having the right address box checked on the paypal website. I hate technology! Sorry to bother you gals with my moron-ness. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif

I think you may be not sinking into the padding. I had to re-tighten my x-pole the whole day I put it up because it kept pushing further down into the padding. You have to let it work its way down in there, it sunk almost a good inch down. Remember you may even have a sub-floor laid over an old floor, which means you could get almost an extra full inch of compression on top of what you get when it first goes up.

Sticky anklets? Hrm….why do I find I am I a little less excited about that than the gloves https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif I’m just imagining trying to do a back hook, my ankle getting stuck, and hilarity following.

Oh, my kingdom for a bathtub! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif I have the world’s teeniest, tiniest, cruddiest shower stall of all time. Renter’s plight hehe. I live in a first floor apt. in a really old house, and ith a lot of the old houses in my neighborhood, all the first floor bathrooms were added on when the house was split to apts. The result? Can’t find a place close to school with a decent bathroom.

I got an x-knee release and an x-ankle release from a sit on my first day, but now my pole burn is too bad to do the x-ankle hehe. The x-knee works I find if I get my strong hand up top to really hold me there while I work the pole into the crook of my top knee as I lean back, less friction on the thigh more weight on that joint.I was able to get a few more in yesterday just making sure I got the pole as far into that knee as I could to take the pressure off thighs. Then squeeze your butt like all heck! It’ll get that inner thigh nice and secure.

You’ll thank yourself for working out before you go into it. I really didn’t do as much as I should have before I got the pole, so I’m working on strength and flexibility and EVERYTHING all at once. Here’s a great youtube vid someone on this site pointed me to that’s a great place to start working on the strength:

It’s always spontaneous like that, isn’t it? I can’t seem to get the moves I try, only the ones I say "eff it" and go for balls to the wall!
