Hello girls! I just went looking for some info on Lil mynx poles. I want a pink spinner. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_bounce.gif I was wondering, is it ok to clean them w windex like I do my xpole? Also, are they really less sticky??? That could be a problem. Please let me know what you think if you have a colored rotator from them! Thanks Girls!!!!

Hey, Luvlee! I have a black rotator Lil Mynx, and I LOVE it! My friend has an xpole, and I have found that my lil mynx is actually stickier than her stainless steel xpole. In general, the powder colored poles are stickier than stainless steel poles. And, yes, you can clean it with Windex, per Lil Mynx! http://www.lilmynx.com/faq.php#13" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

thanks, ladies! Yeah, I didn’t think it was a normal occurrence. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif
Sissy, that would be so awesome of you to ask your doc!!! I actually don’t have any ins (times are hard), and I can’t afford to go to the doc right now.

I would love to go and watch the USPDF, I was trying to find out how to get tickets, like how much they are and where to get them but I couldn’t find any info, anyone know how to gets tickets, and roughly how much they cost??

I’ve been waiting for this info too! They were supposed to put up that info on their site on Nov 26th (for everyone who’s not a member), but then they changed it to December sometime unspecified. Blast! I want to go SO BAD, but i really need to know how much it’s going to cost so I can start preparing NOW! Eee gads! I hate waiting! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif

[spinnyfox]

I’ve been wanting the Art Of Pole set, as well. But, is it ALL on spinny mode? I’m not a huge fan of spinny mode, and I’d like to watch of walk through of advanced moves on static (or at least moves that translate the same on static mode). Anybody know this about the Art Of Pole set? https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif

[spinnyfox]

Wish I could go too, https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cry.gif
but I’ll be in Nashville on a business trip. Good luck, Karol! And all you ladies getting to go, I hope you have an absolute BLAST!!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

You wouldn’t by chance be going to a coating show would you?? I was supposed to go to Nashville that week also..but my plans changed for the better!!

Nope, no coating show, my husband and I are professional songwriters, and we have a meeting with a publishing company. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif
Wish we could reschedule, but we’ve already got sitters and everything all set up (which ain’t an easy thing to come by https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif). I’m so excited for all of you that are getting to go, I’d TOTALLY be going if I could!!!!!!!

Hallelajah! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif
That shipping tape on the bottom of your shoes REALLY WORKS! I gave it a try this morning, and I could barely keep my balance on my pirouettes, I was like grease lightnin’! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cool.gif
Not used to that, with my big fluffy carpet. Now I have to practice more to re-adjust to this new slippery phenomenon.

[spinnyfox]

HA HA HA!!!!! SUCCESS!!!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif
I tried a different hold (one hand at your bum, one hand behind your head like you’re doing a tricep dip) and I got it no problem on the first try! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif
Thanks SOO much for the help, ladies! Couldn’t have done it without you.
LUB ME SOME STUDIO VEENA!!!!!!!!!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_thumright.gif

[spinnyfox]

Man, thanks ladies!!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_compress.gif
I’ll let you know when I get back to my pole room to actually try all the wonderful tips you guys are giving (hopefully this evening)…such is the life of a mommy sometimes…sickness is being passed around my family, and between the kids and me being sick I haven’t been able to get back there and practice! I’m breaking out in pole withdrawal hives!!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_eek.gif

[spinnyfox]

I love my lil mynx as well!!! Alot of poeple I talk to dont like them becasue they think they are slippery, but I stick way better to mine than the stainless ones!! There is one thing, that you cant use alcohol to clean it (if you get the powder coated color ones) like many stainless, but I found that if you wipe it down with a wet wash cloth and dry it off with a dry one, you stick like glue!!!! I reccomend the lil mynx to any pole dancer!!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

I usually clean mine with a mixture of half vinegar half water and a microfiber cloth. Doesn’t smell fantastic, but it works great (and it’s eco-friendly https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif ).

[spinnyfox]

I also have a Lil Mynx, and I love it too. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif So easy to put up and take down, it literally takes me one minute to take it down and "hide" it under the couch if the need arises. It definitely has a better grip then the stainless steel poles, which is better for holds and tricks, but a little harder for spins. It’s a very sturdy pole, I’ve had mine for a year and a half with no problems.

[spinnyfox]

Thanks, Azriel!
It is the second scenario, it’s like my butt squashes my thumb when I’m trying to release down into the bow…I’ll try your tips! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_sunny.gif

[spinnyfox]

Hey! I’m in Statham, GA, which is on the other side of Atlanta…so about 2 hours from you. Yay for Georgia Polers! We need more! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_razz.gif

[spinnyfox]

I’m also wanting to get certified and scouring the net for all options…but I’m way down here in Athens GA! I’d love to do PCP, but does that mean I’d have to go to CA? And, I also checked out Pole Position Fitness, but the closest they come to me in the next couple of months is New York. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_thumbdown.gif
That leaves me feeling like my only option is the Vertical Fitness online course, though I really would like to find an ONLINE course that’s AFAA or ACE approved.
