The main site for this company is NOT in English, so spelling mistakes and grammatical irregularities would be expected.
Here is their main site:http://www.lupitdance.com/lupit-pole.html

I had my LM for 3+ years and never once had it come down on me. I am 5'8" and at heaviest 165 lbs. I had it on concrete, over a piece of panelling and also on carpet and never once had it slide.
The OLD instructions had you tightening the pole more once it was up and in place and if you continued turning the pole past tight it would eat into the drywall of your ceiling. In time the drywall would give out where it was scored and cause a gap thus causing an unstable pole. If you check your pole, and I mean ANY pole, on a regular basis you should be fine.
I had thrown all sorts of power moves on my LM and if people are looking for a safe, inexpensive first pole this is who I recommend.

A dba will not do that. The only thing that would possibly do that is a total legal name change.

I have only heard of registered names in Burlesque. Here is some info from small business if you plan to be paid or set up accounts in that name: http://www.sba.gov/content/register-your-fictitious-or-doing-business-dba-name

I would really like to know how those parts that slid together lock into place. If they do not lock then they will always rotate.

They assemble exactly the same. The only difference is that the original stages have a skirt that you can attach to the bottom so you do not see the frame. Besides that everything else is identical.

The reason I fully support X Pole.

You will need to replace your X Joints (they run about $20). If the hex is stripped (as it sounds as it is) there is no way to replace that as it is attached inside the spreader. Use ME's technique to get the pieces apart… here is the video of the technique: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2M3jmHUosR0

DixiePixie, where are you located? I am wondering if you are out of the US as I keep seeing a theme of the US customer service being very good but outside of the US it is extremely spotty.

My issue with grip aid is that people want to use gloves and itac and grrrip when they are new just because they slide down the pole, when in fact they are sliding because they do not have the strength to do the move. This is when grip aids become a crutch. I know a lot of girls who cannot climb without shoes or boots because they totally rely on the grip of their shoes instead of learning proper form.
On the flip side, different times I rely on different aids. I have used liquid grip during performances just to keep my nerves at bay. I have also used for performances. And for the life of me when I was learning iguana mount every single time I put my hands on the pole they turned to faucets.
When I taught I had all of the different aids on hand but most of my girls did not use them unless they were super sweaty that day. As always the case of safety, engineering controls (proper heating/cooling) should be the first line. Only in lieu of engineering controls do you turn to PPE (personal protective equipment).

I have to admit that when I first saw the video on my tiny phone screen at first I thought it WAS Charley!

I have always called and talked directly to Kimara. When the studio I was working at got XStages I think I talked to her at least twice a week for over a month and asked a MILLION questions. I cannot vouch for any other rep but her. I also always called her extension or sent her emails directly.

Hence the reason you should just invest the money in a good pole to begin.

X Stage lite has a 4 inch raise and a 9'8" pole.
Original X Stage has a 12.5" raise and a 8'10" pole.
Both need 10 foot ceilings unless you purchase a shoter B pole or cut it down.
