    Ahh! I see! Thanks! My current one is a chrome one and I think it is 40mms. Why are there so many different sizes of poles? Btw! I fixed my ebay pole (non X-pole one). WD40 and a hammer work WONDERS!!! Omg!

     

    I have left my pole (the top black screw bit) to soak in WD40 atm. Hopefully it wont choke up again. This one also goes on an angle a lot when it is on carpet. Dodgy, dodgy but hey, 4 times cheaper and also still does the job 😛

     

    I definetely still will get an X-pole though (x-pert) because the ebay one I got keeps doing weird stuff that causes me to need to keep adjusting it and it is such a drag. Such is the renting life.

    Looks like I should stick with chrome!

    Thanks frenchhorndiva! I will try those, in fact I have been contemplating subscribing to veenas for a long time!

    I was watching the womens tennis competition that was on TV a few days ago but was so shocked at how bulky their arms were and wondered how they did it! Perhaps I need to take up tennis too haha

    Thanks for the advice!

    Yikes! That sounds painful. I have found that applying a bit of baby powder onto the area that will experience the most friction prior to doing the move helps immensely. I do not have any issues with sore skin anymore nor is the talcum powder overwhelming so as to limit my “stickiness” to the pole
