Cool yes please let us know if it works!!

But i remember my dad (who does live in the US with joist ceilings) telling me that if i were to put the pole on a joisted ceiling, that it would be better to place it in the middle of one joist, rather than in between two (just in case the joists are too far apart- then the ceiling piece won’t be steady if it’s right in the space between them, without being under them at all)
Yes Yes your right in the US our joist are farther apart then the UK where x pole was developed and so the base will only baaaarrrely touch both beams. Use ONE joist. I can’t believe I forgot to say that…thanks aziel. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

I wish X pole sent more info with the pole ….When you take the pole down its easiest to loosen all the poles first like Kerrierou mentioned then disassemble the pole…Always start with the smaller pieces first this has seemed to work the best for me.
Again if the poles are stuck brut force wont work well use the shock https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_eek.gif method. Works like a charm.
One more thing make sure you have cleaned all the oily gunk off the threads BEFORE you put your pole up. If there and oil left of the treads it tends to make them stick. Having the WD40 on the treads will make it much easier to take apart.

Glad your alright…I had my PERMANENT pole come down while I was at the top once!!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_eek.gif Luckly I too landed on my feet…maybe I’m part cat too. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cat.gif I trust the knock method more than the stud finder because a stud finder will not work on plaster. Like others have said make sure you have installed it properly and account for any soft carpet and also be sure to check your pole every time before you jump on it after you have left it for a long period of time….temperature changes can cause the pole to become loose as your home expands and retracts.This was the problem I had with my permanent pole that fell. The carpet was soft and the weather was changing from warm to cold a lot out side. There are some tips for your X pole in the Articles section I would check them out. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cat.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cat.gif Be safe you only have nine lives. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif

Sometimes you can have a problem with feeling too sticky and end up with too much friction if the humidity level is high….but on the flip side if you tend to sweat more and its humid you will slip from the sweat. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_thumbdown.gif Sometimes it can also be a matter of learning how tightly to hold the pole. Once a person is more comfortable with a move you tend to loosen your grip. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

The list: Olympic gymnast Shawn Johnson, country singer Chuck Wicks, model/actor Gilles Marini, Denise Richards (ughhhh), mogul Steve Wozniak, 80s pop star Belinda Carlisle (win win win), rodeo star Ty Murray, singer Jewel, comedian David Alan Grier, rapper Lil Kim, Lawrence Taylor, Jackass star Steve-O, and Access Hollywood
correspondent Nancy O’Dell. Jewel adn Nancy O’Dell had injuries and had to drop out. So The bachelor lady the one who was turned down..can’t remember her name took one spot and Holly the playboy lady took the other spot. -
How are you doing on all your other one handed spins??? Having a good strong shoulder is a must…remember ALWAYS hold your shoulders back and down while you spin. Are you taking the online lessons? If you are then I would refer you to that vid and I could talk you though it more. If your not then I kind of have an example for you. I did a video about the chair spin…and its the chair spin that you can use to start yourself off with to get into the reverse grab. Here…

Here is a great exercise to strengthen and protect your shoulders.
