I do my Ayesha with split grip. It just feels more stable to me. I think it also depends on how you get into it. If you kick/cartwheel into it, twisted grip would probably work better.

I’m 7 months in now and I have more definition in my shoulders and back than I’ve ever had. In general my body feels tighter. People have commented that I look thinner but I have actually gained a couple pounds.

Plus one for Pole Pressure. I take classes at Pole Pressure Richmond but occasionally Jessalynn comes down to participate and she pretty cool.

I hadn’t thought about strapping them together. That’s a great idea. Thanks Lucca.

The mattresses have a layer of polyester batting over the springs.

I don’t remember off the top of my head. I’ll check when I get home.

I forgot to mention I got the mattresses from Wal-Mart for $39 each.

I also looked into buying foam. I found one that would hold up but then I still needed to get fabric to cover it and do the associated sewing and stuff. The crib mattresses saved time and money without sacrificing structure.

I think foam would work. Most crash mats are foam, you just have to be careful of the type/density you get. Some foams compress or degrade over time.

Oh. They are spring with a layer of padding.

I put them on either side of the pole and they don’t move much but I do plan to get some foam and Velcro to make a connection fill in the gaps.

+1 on the crib mattresses. I just bought a couple and they are working out well for me.
