The KMart ones wouldn't work for me – anything that has a seam line that lines up with your . . uh, natural line . . well, it's going to create an issue https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_surprised.gif

Yup!! I call it my stupidity fall. I was jamming along and in an inverted leg hang. I brought my chest up (to get the pretty arc) and the next thing I knew I was crumpled on the floor with a sore chin. Apparently, I was so into the music and the movement that I just decided to let go and then gravity did it's thing.

I haven't tried any socks or leg warmers yet. I'm so afraid it will mess with the way I'm used to gripping and I'll fall. After that inverted leg hang wipe-out, fear is present. Once I get some more confidence, I'll have to try rocking some cute knee highs.

I never get "natural" squeaks! I even try nose dives . . . and nothing but a barely audible whisper of a squeak. Hmmm., come to think of though, I also stop poling when I start sweating. I'm lazy, don't like to sweat, breathe heavy, or otherwise exert myself. So, probably right when I'd have that good grippy, squeaky skin . . . I bow out. Ahhh, now I get it LOL (and duh).
Chem, yup, I have been getting in some stuff here and there and it makes a world of difference – exercise is good medicine, so a definite YAY!! to that. I got my shoes the other day so I had to give them a whirl. Those suckers are great for gripping, but my oh my, I tried to scorpio spin out and my shoe didn't want to comply with the whole spinning out – made for an awkward dismount. I've been dying to post vids, but I still haven't found a way to do it. All the free converters mess up the files. I tried a web cam one the other day, and fingers crossed, I think I can get it into Windows Movie Maker and edit and post. I'm gonna work on it tonight.

Finally, a reason to rejoice for my stubby toes and wide feet https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif Even ordering up a size from what I normally wear, my feet just barely fit into those narrow openings, so there is no way they are getting any futher down (or even coming close to hanging over the edge).
One drawback is that I really wanted clear heels with the clear straps, but with a see-through window to what my foot looks like while being stuffed in a shoe, I'm guessing that might not be a good visual https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_surprised.gif

Chem, oh ya – I do remember seeing them! How did your bling hold up?
Foxy, so glad to hear they are comfy – hope they will be for me too. I have wider feet, so shoes are always a hit or miss. I wear a 7 – 71/2, so I ordered an 8 after seeing some posts that Pleasers run small. Crossing my fingers!

Ha-ha, so, I'm not the only one! I used to have a whole bunch of songs shelved away for when I got better. I say, let 'em out!! Plus, it would be fun to see how differently you approach the song when you have more moves under your belt. I find that looking back on the early vids – where there really wasn't much going on – there is actually loads of cool stuff that I forgot all about since moving "up" in pole moves.

Just ordered some shoes!!! Thanks for posting this Chem!!!
I'm hoping they fit and that my little toe doesn't creep out that side opening https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

Quote TrixieLovett: "I find Pleaser to run just a bit too narrow for me if I've got to wear them for any extended period of time. I find Jante to run a bit wide once the shoes have warmed to my foot. Regardless, look for a shoe that has a suede (or faux-suede) footbed so your toes don't poke out over the edge."
So glad you mentioned this, I have wide feet (my hubby calls them Flinstone Feet) and was wondering if there are any other brands that are more friendly to those of use with wide feet?
And LOL at your toes going over the edge, that is SOOO my pet peeve, I hate it when peoples toes are dangling over the edge!!

That makes two of us LOL

Things are fine for me. Have you tried updating your player?

I'm on a regular PC. The error code I get has something to do with Java. Darn it, I really wanted to see this move!!

Your link comes up as an error?

Jumping on the Jenn bandwagon because you rocked it and I don't want to hear otherwise!!!! I have horrendous anxiety, even leaving the house to run simple errands can be a huge hurdle and to see all the girls get up there and do their thing – it almost brought tears to my eyes!! I couldn't even build up the nerve to make a trip to Columbus, let alone PERFORM!!! You have mad respect from me for sure.
