you can get adobe photoshop at their homepage for a few days to try it it for free. if the test time is over you can still get another version of the program. so u could at least edit your pics for a few weeks

scorpio: couldn´t it be that your grip problem depends on your skin? then you could try it of course with grip aids, although this wouldn´t be the best solution. but as you already tried different hook variation, i can´t figure out what else might be the problem.
allegra: i struggeled a bit with this to, for me the easiest way to get into it is from the flatline scorpio. because in this way it´s easy to grip around you leg.
superman: when you pull up you should grip with one hand under yourself, so that you are in the "side v". then get as close to the pole with your booty as you can. another way to get into it is from the pike hip hold, just grip over your booty and lift you upper body.
i hope trying to get the tricks in another way can help you as it already helped me sometimes.
when i do the ckr i have my right leg at the top, but i think there´s no difference. but you should definitly try the other side, if you haven´t yet. maybe it´ll help.
furthermore i think it´s easier and safer so learn it from a handstand than from the polesit. in the handstand you can always hold yourself with the arms and change your leg position to find the right one, which will allow you to let your hands go without sliding down.
wish you good look with your tricks, i´m sure you´ll get them! you could also post videos, then it would be easier to see, what you could do different

i think if the protectors won´t work i´ll get the panel. if it last only one year $20 would be worth it!
@pennygirl: in the apartment i´m leaving, we have kind of pvc-floor. until now my heels didn´t make any scratches in it. it´s also good for dancing as it´s nor too slipperly neither too sticky and cold. but i think it doesn´t look really pretty ^^
-
it´s not a matter of the pressure with the foam mats, it´s just because of the shape… how expensive was the panel? i ordered now the special designed protectors for my heels as this might be the easiest solution, but i´m unsure wheather it´ll work

i just read in another forum something about a little piece of silicone to put over the heels which other dancers use to dance on parquet. does anyone know something about that?
-
@kobajo: love that idea. maybe my dad could do that for me. but i i don´t know how expensive that would be? i think i´ll first try the office mat as i can do this on my own and only cost about 10€ and i can cut it on my own. but for the future your idea would be more pretty =)
-
thanks for all the great suggestions!
@stevesgirl: this might work for others but i just love my stilleto heel too much ^^
@chemgoddess: i have those foam mats which were mentioned in one and once walked over them with heels and they couldn´t stand the pressure of the heel… they might get completely destroyed when i dance on them. but i liked the idea of just using a carpet which would be also cheap. i could cut a slot from the side to the hole in the middle and put it always away while the pole could stay.
@jessesgirl: this is my favourite idea so far as there are even clear once you nearle don´t see and they might be good to walk on with heels! do you know wheather they slip on the ground? because i would could them like the carpet so that it would be removable.
you all made my day! it was such a shock when my mother yesterday said to me " you know you can´t wear high heels in your new apartment on the parquet?"!
but now i can´t wait to pole there!

what great news!! congrats!
-
wooow, thats awsome and so kind of your husband! i wish i had the money to buy one, too! now you can start poling where you want, even outdoor as it´s already great sunny outside!
wish a lot of fun with your new pole!

encouraging is of course the most important thing. once she tried it and notices that nothing bad will happen, whe might get over her fear.
i once showed some girls at school some easy pole spins and there were some really scared, too. i don´t know if you use mats under the pole, i normally don´t, but for the scared ones i just put a mat on the ground and their fear was nearly gone. it just gave them a feeling of being saftey
do you know what exactly she is scared of (being to weak and falling, crashing into pole,…) ? this would be helpful.
-
i would love to have a stage for my pole, too, so that i could use it everywhere!
my dad made a outdoor pole for me one week ago, when i visited my parents. we just put a metall rod (about 2cm thick and between 0,5 and 1m long) in the ground, put the pole (which is normally part of a scaffolding and about 5m long) over it, hit it a few times with a big hammer, so that the pole was put a bit into the ground and fixed it with three ropes on the balcony (one to the left, on to the right side and one in the middle).
it only needed about 10min to prepair and was very solid! but of course you can´t put this up everywhere, so i can only use it when visiting my parents =)
you can see it on my newest pole vids, if you want

i started posting videos on youtube only a few weeks ago. i didn´t get any bad comments yet.
i decided not to upload the videos in which i only wear a bikini, just share them with my veeners =) and if you´re still scared, but want to get a bigger audience, you could also just upload trick videos which are maybe less sexy. I think you won´t get any bad comments then.
for me it was also a great possibility to show my friends my pole passion. some already knew that i´m poling but they never saw it and as i moved last year, i now still can show it them through my vids.
and of course you always have the freedom to remove your videos again as you said, if you start feeling uncomfortable with having them on youtube!
