    November 28, 2011 at 9:03 pm in reply to: Sweaty to dry!!!

    I love and even use it on my hands. I like I-tac as well, but have to be careful as sometimes it makes my hands too tacky. I like pole physics, but I use it about 30 minutes before poling, if I use it the night before my skin is still too dry the next day. and yes all this stuff builds up on the pole in some manner or another so cleaning them off is good.

    I don't think my hands have EVER in all my years of poling sweat, even in Jamaica. In the winter they despite putting lotion on many times a day are so dry they crack and bleed. My legs are stupidly ashy.

    I ahve very dry skin, it has been an issue for me with pole since day 1 of poling.

     

    I like to use corn huskers lotion right before poling all over my legs and hands.

    multipiece are so much easier to deal with then a stage. I don't move my pole around in my house as I have vaulted ceilings in all rooms but the kids bedrooms. Those ceilings are only 7.5 high. The middle of the living room is 12. But I take mine down and take it with us when we travel and to other peoples house if they have a flat ceiling. Alethea Austin even danced on it at midwest pole jam showcase this past year 🙂 along with a bunch of other talented ladies such as Charley. I can't imagine buying a single piece pole unless I already had a multi piece, they are just too limiting for me. My next will be a stage pole for outside and performing.

    different finishes grip different for different people. I personally hate stainless. Other people love it. I have the driest skin on earth. Doesn't seem to mix well with stainless.

    it was a horrible fall, she broke tons of bones it was stated the Drs and bystanders are suprised she lived.

     

    Without her in it I have no reason on earth to see the MJ show as I dislike his music, it was bad enough that is what Lady Gaga played before she went on at the show here. I was ready to kill myself after the first 15 min.

    November 21, 2011 at 1:32 pm in reply to: What’s your favourite brand of pole shoe & why?

    for the most part I like Pleasers. I generally wear a 7.5 so an 8 pleaser usually fits great. I do have some ellies I like but I buy some of them in 7's or if I buy an 8 I have to add inserts.

    I agree Pam. Checked out Craigslist just for amusement the job section on ours seem to have little in the way of jobs other then nursing that pay aboove about 11 bucks an hour.

    Craigslist I think would depend on the type of job your looking for. Hubby is looking right now but is mainly going through linked in, the almuni association, and special job fairs the hold just for Veterans and military academy grads. If I was looking I would check all the on line resourses for job hunting this area has to offer. But I will openly admit I have only looked on Craigslist a few times for anything. I don't know whether it just isn't a big thing here or what but there is never much of anything on it.

  • I have an "I should have used Itac" photo. Tried to pole on a telescopic plastic flag pole. Epic fail. Hubby caught the picture as I was falling.

    I think from reading the OP she wants to make it thinner not shorter and I would say don't do it. The thickness of the fabric is what makes it safe to do drops and for it to hold weight.

    I'm a 50mm girl. If all there was in this world were 38's I would most likely give up pole because I would never feel safe with any leg grips. I don't feel secure doing most things on a 45 they are just too small for my bowed legs.

    November 3, 2011 at 6:39 am in reply to: instructors: do you have other jobs?

    I haven't really started teaching yet, we plan on opening a studio soon. We would be under way with it already but for my mom being in ICU for 17 days. I quit my retail job in July so I don't have that job but I do run a horse boardings stable and I'm an arbonne consultant and one for adryss as well. Plus I make and sell hoops and other things. Oh and I have a 9 year old and 7 year old. and a husband who thank goodness is the most loving supportive and wonderful man!

    October 30, 2011 at 9:23 am in reply to: JM 30 Day Shred

    my husband and I do the shred and ripped in 30. Great workouts that don't take a bunch of time to do. We have been doing them a year with sometimes taking a break for a week or so. We vary the workouts and if say he is feeling a bit tired and wants to do workout one, I will do that one with him but I use heavier weights and get deeper into the movements. For sure helped me lose a bunch of butt, thighs and hips.

    generally clicking in spin mode means it isn't sitting level.

     

    knock on wood my xpole has been a great pole for me, no issues with it at all.

    smooth ceiling shouldn't matter if it is put up correctly. Empy uses x poles in her studio and her ceiling is laminate flooring which is very smooth I have helped her with her pole set up a couple of times and love the attention to detail of how each pole is put up she uses.
