Oh yeah, I’ve already climbed in the attic to double check that beam/stud & I’m going to get extra boards cut to screw in there (from the attic side) to make it even more stable 😉 I had a 9ft permanent pole at my old house & I broke screws (attatched to the ceiling) from time to time… I think I’m rough when I learn new stuff, lol.

I had sent them an email through their site & also asked on their Facebook but still haven’t gotten a response :-/ I really want to know what the difference is because I’m ready to order 🙂 whatever one I get will be a 10 foot & I know I want a 1 piece pole that will screw in the floor & ceiling forever 😀 tension mounted poles make me nervous :-/
Can’t wait to get my new pole 😀 -
I pole 3x a week (Monday, Wednesday & Friday) for about 2 hours each time & stretch for 40 mins to an hour after each pole session 🙂 oh & like 15 mins of warm up before too 😉

Ok so this morning I took my pup to have her teeth cleaned & they won’t let them wear their collars while they are doing it. I always put her collar around the lower part of my upper arm, under a tattoo I have of her face (so it looks like the tattoo of her is wearing her real collar) & today I tried to do the same thing & it won’t fit! 😀 I was pretty excited since it means I’ve gained more muscle since her last cleaning 😀 yay!!! It’s the little things ya know? Lol!

I have lost weight everywhere but gained muscle in my arms & shoulders so I had to start getting larger coats, long sleved shirts & button downs o_O can’t help but feel like im in a scene from tommy boy sometimes when I reach for a older long sleved top! Lol!
I think It’s worth it for sure 🙂 -
It took me like 6 months to finally do a CKR & a few months after that I did my 1st crucifix 🙂 I have seen people invert quicker than I did, also heard of some taking longer. You will do it when you are ready, no need to rush, when you are comfortable that’s when the time is right for you!

I am in the market for a new pole.. I really hope I don’t over tighten it when I get one 🙁 that’s scary
-
Wow! I didn’t know that was possible 🙁 sorry to hear that! I would contact x pole & ask them what to do, you might be able to buy a replacement part or something. I only have solid piece poles so I am zero help on this.
-
Oh no 🙁 what kind of pole do you have?
-
I have enjoyed the powder coated but it wasn’t my first choice & I got it because I was moving & I knew I would have a 8 foot ceiling at the temp house & the house we were getting…& I got it for a great deal at the time. I really want a metal surface pole again & a spinner again 🙂
-
… I didn’t mean to send that yet… Anyway. I will look at lil mynx site. I have a powder coated pole from hardcore poles & I do like the grip, I wonder how the grip compares to a lil mynx. Thanks for reminding me they have a 10foot 45, I had kind of over looked them because I was so set on a x pole
-
I could do that but I really want 4 screws to mount in the ceiling so it stays up forever & someday I’m getting a fly gym (or some kind of yoga hammock) so I think you have to use a pole that screws in the floor & ceiling for that… Idk though. & honestly I really really wanted a brass or a TG because I just don’t like the look of a colored pole, lmao. I’m being picky. I will look at lil mynx s

i was really leaning towards the brass BUT it's a lot more $ so i was just gonna get a TG, BUT now… https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_puke_r.gif i went up in the attic & i can tell i need to screw the pole in the ceiling, because i have a tray ceiling in that room & those beams are def mounted from the top down https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif now i will have to spend an extra $80 if i get a x-pert so now i have to wait until next year. that was a total buzz kill this morning. my hubby said i could get one when he thought it was gonna be $330 (he looked xpole.com), didn't know i would need the extention that is $30 OR that i wanted a TG, that is actually $360 lol. & now i need that block mount part too that is $80 so… looks like i'm gonna have to keep poling on my shorty 8ft non-spinny for another year. better than no pole at all but i am itching to work on drops & chaining tricks together, like from the top down. it's super hard to pole in shoes on a 8ft since i'm 6.1 with them https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_eek.gif & the walls in the are very close in my current pole space so i am limited… blah! i just want more pole space https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif & a pole i can actually climb. i want to do superman/superpain drops so bad i can't stand it, lol.
&& the one i REALLY want (45mm brass) would be $620 with everything !!!! not gonna happen. my 30th birthday is april 5th so i really wanted something extra special for my "big day" lol. also our first wedding anniversary is 3 days after my b-day so i was thinking that pole would be a nice birthday/anniversary gift… hopefully i can get it next year… or maybe i can find a job & buy it for myself https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_eek.gif i didn't know there were different brands of yoga hammocks, i have only seen the fly gym… i want a yoga hammock too but i have to get a new pole 1st because i can't stand only having a 8ft pole any longer, i've been using it since december 2011… i'm itching for a 10ft that spins again https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif after that i need a yoga hammock fosho!

Omg yes! I was like you when I started! I really like alethea Austin’s “stretching for pole” DVD & “pure split” DVD. I believe been a has stretching lessons on here too but I haven’t had the $ to check those out yet. I’m sure they are great too!!
