160mm adjuster shaft to ceiling

Goofy started this discussion · 8/5/2009

Hello, This is my first topic... and I need advice I have a X-Pole 50mm Chrome. My house have 2710mm ceiling. I see on x-pole web and in the instruction manual that I don't need any extension but, when I fit the adjuster shaft, it have 160mm. I read that it can't have more than 125mm for safety. Should I buy a extension? If I should buy it, wich one, 500mm? Yesterday was my second practice day, I can do invert basic and crucifix 😀 (ok, I'm practice aerial silk and trapeze 2-3 moths ago, it's help) But thighs hurt on seat position... 😐 Thank you very much and sorry for my bad english 😳

Awesome! I don't know anything about xpole, so someone else will answer that question! BUT. I think it's way cool that you went from silks to pole! And congratulations on your success! And your english is great!

yah i had a bit of a hard time today figuring out the extension thing. according to them i can use either a 125 OR 250 one for my ceiling, but the 250 one was too big, and at first it seemed like the 125 one was too small. i cant help you on that, but that's awesome that you could do those moves on your 2nd day!! wow.. everything is incredibly hard for me.

Thank you very much. I wrote to x-pole 'contact us' mail and they only said: "If the pole is 2710mm ceiling then you will not need to buy any extensions " 😲 Sorry, I think that I wrote something wrong... I'm practicing now aerial silks and trapeze for 3 months... I think "2-3 moth ago' is past, don't it? 😳 Aerial silks and trapeze, above all, make you strong, because that, I can do invert basic and crucifix in the second practice day. If I tried it months ago, I'm sure that I couldn't do it . Anyway, pole is hard, it's no easy, for me is incredibly hard too...
