Hi Bailey! My name is Lindsay. I am a pole instructor in Phoenix and a performer as well. My students and I often go out and street pole in Tempe or Scottsdale, friend me here or on Facebook so I can keep you in the loop 🙂

I agree with lilblondie, you might want to try the double cup grip Shoulder Mount. Picture is here:
http://www.triagedesign.co.uk/wikipole/images/c/cf/Shouldermountdoublecup.jpg
I use this grip when I lift from the floor, and sometimes aerially, or I will use the Twisted grip shoulder mount grip because it helps me keep straight legs as I lift.
this is the aerial twisted grip shoulder mount, it's not the best quality video, but check out :43 seconds I do it from a superman

If you try this, make sure that whatever shoulder you place on the pole, the corresponding hand is the lower hand. and the other hand is twisted.
for example: In the video, I shouldermount using my right shoulder, so my right hand is low and my left hand is high and twisted.

X-pole carries all the old extensions on their website. It looks like they are out of the chrome 50mm/500mm extensions, but the titanium is $40
You might wanna call them and see when they will get more chrome ones in.

Charlie. I was on the 45:) I love it and I want one now…maybe after taxes:)

I have used one, It's really nice in my opinion. Here's a video I did on one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZM0fMyAlEew (You can skip through my silly intro)
As you can see, the pole wobbles a little, but the base never moves, and I was throwing all my weight into it. Wonderful product in my opinion.
Also, I had never set one up before, and I got it all together in under 20 minutes.
-
If that doesn't work, I would contact x-pole or whoever makes your pole and get some info from them. If the pole is new, they should be able to send you new parts or whatever it needs.
-
When you tighten your pole, it should be only wound up to the point where you feel resistance, you shouldn't ever have to use a lot of muscle to put it up. Then I just shake the pole back and forth to make sure the base on the ceiling isn't moving.
I would losen it all the way up and try one more time. The only time I have ever experienced clicking is when the pole is too tight to the ceiling.
-
It might be too tight against the ceiling. Also, I would double check that it is completey level all the way around 🙂

Momma, This is a great stretch that I use in class, it's called the pidgeon.
This will let you know how open and flexible your hips are

It's called Pole-A-Palooza. It takes place at either Haze, Jet, or The Bank in Las Vegas. Jenyne has done it and won many many times.
Here's Jenyne ripping it up: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nk8T0nakWYw

I don’t know if this has been posted yet but this is straight from my husband after seeing this post:
You might be married to a pole dancer if every time you clean out the lint trap on the dryer, it’s full of glitter. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif

My friend Val and I do "Pole Go-Go" on Friday and Saturday night downtown Phoenix, we do 20 minute sets (which is really difficult because it’s not just regular go-go) But it’s lots of fun and best of all…no stripping.https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif

Charley, I would really appreciate that! I feel so strange when I am dancing without a pole https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_redface.gif

Just so everyone on this thread know, I am going to ask the studio owner where I work if we can all get together and jam….if not, we’re going to clear out the dining room in my house or something! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif
