Hey, I need to purchase a portable pole. Stability, and how long it takes to assemble are big factors. Can anyone share their opinion from personal experience with the following poles: X-Pole (x-pert, x-sport, showgirl), lil Mynx pro pole, or Platinum stages extreme super pole. Thanks

Where are you planning on setting this up and what kinds of things are you going to do on it? I am a little hesitant with the LM as the top piece really is not that big when you use it as a portable pole. You will also need to know the ceiling height off the bat to install properly. I am not sure about the PS extreme and what kinds of lengths you can get to make it adaptable for various ceiling heights. XPole is probably the most versatile as there are a ton of different extensions you can buy to fit various ceiling heights. All of them are not difficult to set up...the first time will take the longest. I would say 15 minutes max on all of them. If PS still has the sections that screw together you need to make sure you purchase and use antiseize so that you will be able to get the pieces apart each and every time.
x-pole- my fave
Another X-Pole vote from me ❤️
I plan on using it for pole parties, so the ceiling height will vary I assume 8-9ft. At the parties it will be used for walk arounds, leaning and basic spins. No major Advanced moves. Which x-pole do you have?
I have the XPert, which has the option of spin and static, 50mm chrome. The Sport is static only. Did the Showgirl replace the Kendra pole? The Kendra was 45mm, static only.
If you are not needing spin mode I would simply get the X-Pole Sport and I would also purchase the 500mm extension which will give you the flexibility to use the pole anywhere from 7' 4" to 10'3".
The description for the showgirl says that it is identical to the Kendra but it does not have her signature. Thanks for all the great input, I gues the x-pole is a favorite.
