Choosing the right pole for my needs

MoverShaker started this discussion ·

I'm looking for a portable pole that is static and spinning.   I looked at Platinum Stages Star Stand alone. The studio I go to has one, but I don't feel comfortable with the wobbling and certain tricks and it would be hard to dance and use the floor because of the base. I know they it won't flip over, but still makes me nervous. I also looked at the X-Pert pressure mounted pole. From what I've read it is very hard to assemble right without warping or over-tightening. I have no experience setting up a pole, how do I know what's enough or not. I need a portable or removable pole because I will be looking for a new home with my husband. The house I'm in now has ceiling cracks and settling foundation, very old house (not sure how pressure mounting would work here). I really want one now. I just don't know if I should spend almost 2x the money on the star stand alone, it's not exactly what I want Any suggestions or opinions appreciated. Thank you!
