I don’t think its related to my camera, because when I play it on my computer its clear and also it was clear when I uploaded it to YT. It may have lost some resolution once I uploaded to SV maybe, but not really sure why that happened. Thanks for you advice though.

I love webstwe’s videos! Another good youtube profile to check out, is corbyoconner (http://www.youtube.com/user/corbyOconnor). She also takes lessons at the Brassy Butterfly and is a really good dancer. One of my favorite pole dancers works there as an instructer, Starrgrrrl (http://www.youtube.com/starrgrrrl). I took lessons from her when when I flew out there to visit Portland. While I was visiting, we stopped in at a strip club and I noticed that the girls on stage would clack their heels every so often. I thought it was so cool, and it did grab my attention! I thought it was just a Portland area thing, but I guess it is something that a lot of dancers do.

I don’t know if Allegra even knew the move was named after her until recently. I had posted a comment on Bertysbooboo’s youtube video referring to it as the Allegra, and in the comment I referenced Alethea’s video because that’s how I found out the name of the move. Then a couple of hours later, Allegra herself messaged me asking about the move and wanting a link to Alethea’s video. I am guessing she was not aware that there was move named after her.

Does it have to be a multi piece? PS makes a one piece skinny removeable pole, in addition to the new extreme multi piece poles. Also, check out Craigslist or Ebay for used poles. I see used ones for pretty cheap on sale from time to time.

PS makes a removeable pole with a vaulted ceiling adapter. I find the PS poles are way easier to erect than the Xpole because the top plate is much lighter and smaller. The overall quality is about the same. I have never worked with Lil Minx but I have heard of the bolt eating through the joist over time, and I also heard their stainless steel is not as grippy as PS stainless or Xpole’s chrome. If I were you, I’d go for the PS with a ceiling adapter, that way you would have a lot more freedom on where to place it in your room. You are so lucky to have such high ceilings!

I’d like to know who created the move – I actually thought it was Karol but after some sleuth work across forums I found some older references to the combination.
As far as I can find out this is not a named move but a combination. any info?
Ozzy was doing it back when she visited us last year on a spinning pole and then she slowly lowered herself down. I also remember TriplexBexx doing it in this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBJDDU9a5Sc" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; posted in May. I think its been around for a while, just hasn’t gotten lots of attention til now.

Does she have the new Extreme Pole? That’s what picture your link went to. Those are really new poles, just released in September. I wonder why she is selling it so soon. I was thinking of purchasing one myself, but would like to see it in action and hear others reviews first. Please let me know how you get on with it.

My pole does that too, but it only rotates a small amount so it really doesn’t bother with my practices. I usually have to re-tighten the screws maybe once or twice each practice. If it bothers you too much, you could probably get a replacement part from X pole. They have wonderful customer service. They had once replaced my TG A pole for free, because the TG coating had been stripped off after a short time of use. They had also replaced my dome because the spin option was being wonky.

I am working on this one too, It hurts too much to let go!

Oooh, I just saw a video of Jenyne doing the move perfectly to show you how its done. Bertsbooboo just posted it on youtube! here is the link… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aufi4W8J8Ng&feature=sub. Look for it @ 3:14.

Are you walking around the pole to gain speed and reaching out wide with your outside leg? I notice that beginners tend to fear reaching out far when going into spins. They tend to hug the pole too quickly, cutting off any momentum. When I do my spins, I really speed up and get out as far as I can and that gets it going. As you gain strength in your grip you will be better able to control your spins by loosening/tightening your grip on the pole. Don’t worry, just keep practicing, you will get there in no time!
