I am quite the opposite here. I can see why you would want to do tricks. What is the first thing EVERY poler wants to do when they get their pole??? GO UPSIDE DOWN. Not transitions till they are blue in the face. It may be just me, but I love tricks more than anything else. WHy do we have pole idols? All those tricks they put together so beautifully and transition so smoothly one after the other never touching the floor. That is what I want. Tht is why I am a trick natzi and always will be. For putting together a perfprmance for competition or showcase you need a little of both, but I see more tricks and that is what I want to watch. I get bored and go to the next video if there are no tricks. Just me. I will always feel this way though. Tricks are why I started pole and I dream to one day be able to string them all together like some of the best. I just watched Becca Buck's performance video from a showcase and I am inspired to get some of that. ANY of that!!! It is frustrating, sometimes you need to move on and come back, but it is worth it in the end when you nail that trick. End of my soap box. ( tucks tail and hides)

Good question!!!!

[luvlee]

Are they to big? I really do not know of tips to make the fit smaller. Now if they are tight, I know lots of tips for that.

[luvlee]

How long did they tell you? Did they say no pole at all?? I am recovering from skin cancer removal surgery. It is similar. I am just now able to pole again.

[luvlee]

I had over 300 views and still didn't get anything. I am not playing anymore. LOL!!!!!

[luvlee]

Nice, Loraine!!! I am still hoping to order. I got hit with major medical stuff and have not been able to, but maybe for Christmas! I need a romper and that lime green and Pink zebra print stuff!!! I want it so bad!!! I will check out your new sight!!

She did not let me put my pole up in her house when I first for it but now she cheers me on and encourages me. She sees how it is good physically and mentally.

This is odd but I actually gain weight when I pole. Muscle weight I guess but still. And my shirt sleeves and jeans get tighter around my thighs!!! I love pole though so I do not mind.

[luvlee]

I just ordered my costumes!! I may do a few for this challenge!!! I love this challenge because I can do it!!!! Lol!!!

[luvlee]

It is up. Please be kind. I understand my back leg is very bent. I just wanted to show a way into the 3rd pic;

[luvlee]

Yeah! I will do it tonight!!! I am telling you all though, it is not all pretty like hers. LOL!!!!!

[luvlee]

I am talking about the 3rd pic by the way. I have not tried the top variations. My back is straight and stiff as a board so it would never look just like that, but you have to make your own variations.

[luvlee]

My split is kinda flat but not and I can. My back leg has a ways to go before I am FLAT. It just doesn't look the same but I can do it.

[luvlee]

I can get into this. I did it last night. I know all of you can too!!!! My back leg is not straight at all yet though. I did it from a pole sit. You could do CKR or CAR too, I guess. I am sure there are many ways into this. That video Chem posted shows a nice smooth way into it also. It is just variations of a pole split.
