IDK why i think that is so fun, but it is https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif

I’m still working on the pointed toes. I specifically think of them before I start, but once I get into the correct positions, the toes go directly out the window! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif
i still do that too! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif

i really do not like this move! i never feel safe & i read somewhere that a chick was paralyzed by falling from this move https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_surprised.gif & ever since that i haven’t done it anymore, especially since i usually pole alone.
sorry i didn’t have any helpful info https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_confused.gif

my friend charges around $300 a day, depending on how long he has to be there & the event…
*** ETA he uses his own gear & he is always getting new cameras & stuff so he can make each event as awesome as possible. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif

If the event is going to be videotaped hire a competent videographer.
THANK YOU!!!!

the girl who said all of this has known me for 14 years https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_eek.gif & i had been with her brother for almost 6 years. she knows me pretty good & just thinks i "put up a front" for his family. thats not true at all. i am myself always https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif sometimes i tone it down a little (like at work) but everyone i know knows about my pole dancing, even my grandma & my 77year old great aunt who watches my videos on facebook https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif

oh honey! a few weeks ago i had someone come into my home & tell me that i was an attention whore because i have a pole in my home https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_twisted.gif seriously pissed me off, i’m sure you can imagine, lol! but you know what? we (pole people) know better! & we know how hard it is & how great it makes us feel && what a wonderful workout it is https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif the only thing any of us can do is just keep on poling & show our strength, if someone challenges your opinion on it you can show them some hard moves, or show them a tasteful pole video with a lot of hard tricks in it. i just sat there like an idiot because i was stunned https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_surprised.gif i didn’t even defend myself https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_confused.gif that was mainly because it was my boyfriends sister (now my ex boyfriend) & i didn’t want to fuss with someone who could have been my family at some point… looking back, i really wish i had asked her to go try a easy move, like a fireman spin or something easy like that because we all know its harder than it looks & i think it would have changed her tone.
i hope & pray pole gets into the olympics because i know that would change a lot of peoples minds about it & show that it doesn’t have to be seductive. -
first off, i ALWAYS start off without grip aid https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_bounce.gif but, i use grip aid when it too hot or humid here, i live in GA USA, the south is hot & humid though the summer months so it is just now getting to where i can pole without it again daily. sometimes i like to use grip aid or mighty grip gloves when i am using spin mode, instead of grip aid, just because it makes me feel more secure trying new stuff. when i use it, i usually put a little on my inner thighs & behind my knees & sometimes on my inner elbows && then i wipe most of it off my hands with rubbing alcohol, this allows me to spin freely & still have a little extra grip https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif
i have a stainless steel pole.
i have mighty grip & iTac2… i personally like the iTac2 better but it all depends on your skin type & pole texture & climate.
i have found if you contact grip aid companies a lot of them will send you a sample so you may want to try that before you spend $20 on something that may or may not work for you https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gifgood luck https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

i got my mighty grip gloves from http://www.thepoledancingshop.com/products/Pole-Dancing-Gloves.html
they were $16 & shipping was less thank $2! & they have a hand sizing chart on the page. i ordered mine on a sunday night & they were here by wednesday https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif
i also wanted to add that i have ordered from that company a few times now & i really like them https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif incase anyone was wondering -
i have the "tacky" mighty grip gloves for those days when its just too hot & sweaty for spin mode & i love them! i already have calluses so i can’t say if they would prevent them or not.

seeing how several of the pros have a problem with pole conditions at a HUGE competition is really freaking me out!
https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_eek.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cry.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_shaking.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_puke_r.gifi really want to always be in control of cleaning any pole that i use… after seeing this i don’t trust other people to be pole cleaners https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_thumbdown.gif

wow!!! that first fall (or maybe a drop) looked like it hurt too https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_surprised.gif & then falling from the truss https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_eek.gif i would have cried && not been able to handle myself so gracefully. she did a great job though! i hate that she fell at worlds, that sucks! && to me, it just makes her better than i already thought she was because of how she handled herself & kept going.
https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif go Jenyne!!! you are awesome! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif
