If you’re referring to the lessons here the Cartwheel you’re head is moving forward and down towards the floor, feet kick back away from you.
Handspring your head is moving backwards and down feet kick towards your face.
Here’s a video I made a few yrs ago. https://www.studioveena.com/videos/view/5703c6a9-e2e8-4079-9b48-1a8eac110003

We rent our home and my husband (webmaster) made a stage for one room and we also installed a whole new floor on top of carpet in my studio space! If you have a room that is nice and even as in rectangle or square laying a floor over the whole room was great!
We layed large pieces of plywood over the carpet, making sure if fit tightly across the whole floor. Then we installed the lock together flooring and it’s been great!
I don’t know for sure how he constructed the stage, but for the floor it was also plywood and we layed stick down tile on that and it’s held up great too!

If you like the heels you have and find your toes get caught when you slide wear socks with them. Also you can try other sizes or brands that might fit the toes better.
Boots have more support so if you find you keep rolling your ankles try doing some conditioning work like these.

My weak points are my wrists and shoulders. Have you tried doing targeted conditioning work for them? I avoid wearing wrist supports unless I plan on doing a bunch of handstand or split grip work in one session.
There are tons of exercises you can incorporate into your warm ups or after pole sessions Starting with hand strength and then work your way down there are 7 total in the conditioning section. https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/b9b362ac-b880-11df-856f-001b214581be
Theses are great too https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/55fb40d9-2820-428d-b154-07990a9aa0eb
I have a routine in the works for next year!!!!

In my experience the newer xpoles flex more than the old. And the smaller the diameter the more flex you’ll get for sure. 40s flex more than 45 or 50 mm poles. You can post a video of it if you want use to be able to see how much flex it has.
