  • Pole Recommendations for high vaulted ceiling; What works? What doesn’t work?

    Posted by Life Coach Forever on May 29, 2014 at 8:55 am

    I would like to know what others have tried with their vaulted ceilings. I have a 12 foot ceiling. Haven’t purchased anything yet. I am a beginner and hope to purchase a pole by my birthday this summer. I plan to be able to have a pole I can take down when I need to so I hope to have a ceiling mount that may double as a decorative plant hanger or something when the pole is not up. Until then, I am working on Veena’s lessons for strengthening along with 25 min of cardio 4 times per week. I would like to know what your thoughts are on installation, pole selection, pole diameter that’s best for a newbie, powder coatings versus chrome, and even anything you feel might be helpful to me as far as strengthening or conditioning. Also, if you have a gently used pole for sale that may work for my situation email me a photo with the details. I’d love to hear from you 🙂
    I look forward to all your comments!

    I have 12 foot vaulted as well. It is difficult…..I had the Veena powder coated which I luv, but it only goes to 10 feet and I believe that’s only 9feet of workable pole space……..I now have the platinum stages 45mm brass one piece 10 foot which I have set at almost 11 feet. But that’s only 10 feet of workable pole…..and it’s FLEXY…..but brass is my favorite. If u get it 50 mm brass at platinum stages u can get it 12 ft and its easy to take up and down. Or stainless steel comes in 12 ft but I find it super slippy…..I believe at xpole all poles can get extension to 12 feet. I’m gonna try the new brass xpole next……

    At that height I do not believe that any of the removable poles will work. I am not sure if the vaulted ceiling mount would even be enough. I know that PS and X can custom make poles to be sturdier however they are going to be costlier also.

    Costlier? Is that a word?
