Need advice on buying a pole…
-
Love my lilmynx. However am now wishing I had gotten a 45 and not a 50. Also have a chrome x. Like the lilmynx better, just like the grip…..maybe have to buy a 45 now. I guess I don't feel so bad that some of you have 5 poles!

Well I just measured my garage..8’6″ and my bedroom is 8’6″ and 9′,I have a tray ceiling…and the one piece has 6 inches of extension….winner,winner,chicken dinner..I just went back in and pretended to spin with legs extended,not that I plan on doing many tricks,just not the room to do it..it just may work ceiling as far as the ceiling goes….it certainly would save me $100 to get the one piece…

"Winner Winner Chicken Dinner"! That's a cute saying, LOL! I ordered a PS one piece yesterday and am excited. As long as structurally they are sound (kind of a no brainer right?!?) poles then fall into personal preference for diamter and finish. Whichever you go with… hoping you totally LOVE it!!!
I started out with 50 mm Chrome X poles. I love my X's. I like putting them in different rooms and feel very safe on them. I went with a 50 initially because many said it is a standard. I did have issues with X joints spinning around but just read they have redesigned them to reduce this.
I want a single piece brass now so ordered a Platinum Stage Brass. I want to try a non coated pole that is one piece… If that works out I will eventually try their Steel. I love variety. I will do a ceiling mount on the PS pole so that one was measured just for the room it is going in.
Excited to hear about how things go with your pole journey. PS also offers 10% off discount for Veneers! Erica mentions that earlier in this thread.

I personally love brass…altho that is all I know…lol..I did try the chrome xpole and twisted the crap out of the skin on the inside of my arm trying to spin..I don’t know if I overcompansated my grip,but my skin never burned like that on brass,even when I first started dancing..it was like I had a pole burn that is now a bruise..I did bruise that day,but did have a red looking burn as well..let me know how u like it..as well as the cover on the bottom..I do slide a lot all the way down to transition into floorwork and was wondering if that was going to get in the way of my hands sliding..

I have lilmynx 1 stainless rotator/ 2 coated/black/ 2 coated black rotators. Haven't had any problems with the stainless..only the coated non rotators. And they are the ones I use the least. go figure?

I really like platinum stages brass poles the best. I have 2 permanents at my studio. I really like that i dont have to use grip when im on it!!! It is amazing when u learn advanced moves, cuz u dont have to worry about slipping.
I find that their stainless steel has really great grip as well. I was recently in a competition that used stainless steel Star stand alones, and they were brand new. I was really nervous because i thought it would be slick since it was new, but it actually had the best grip ever. I was really surprised and shocked! I didnt have to use grip on it either. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

Just on a side not for those of you looking into the brass poles in canada, Aradia fitness purchases it's poles from action poles, and just resells them to you at a higher price, just go directly through action poles and you save on the middle man costs.
