Yippy!! I have done that before….now to make sure I haven’t over tightened my poles I always put the pole on spin and turn it with my hands…if its not smooth I know its too tight. I’m glad its all better https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

LOL guys don’t worry your not weird or anything…everyone will have a little different experience with the different metals. It all depend on skin type, climate where you live and your strength and pole experience. You’ll get use to it. This article might help if you haven’t already seen it. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_geek.gif https://stage.studioveena.com/info/2009/05/19/the-temperamental-pole/

The deathlay isn’t as scary as it sounds….you just need a good SM into pike hip hold (like your going into a superman) Keep the SM up as high as you can and use the back of…well EVERYTHING… https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif on your body to press against the ceiling. Please be SUPER careful if you do this on your X pole, I don’t really ever do it because the top piece on the X, is just not reliable to grab onto. Don’t use that top cover at all!!!

You should have called X pole……If the owner before over tightened them there is nothing you can do a stripped screw is a prob….you could see if replacing the little screws would fix it, if your lucky maybe the inside is still fine.
=( sadly, yeah still moving. Actually the most recent time I tried the one problematic screw finally gave way on tightening and now slips meaning its definitely stripped somewhere in there. It’s just a little give so I’m not worried about it being unsafe to practice on but I don’t like it one bit. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_evil.gif -

If you over tighten your pole this can https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif happen…..

Azriel is right, line it up with the X and make sure they’re in tight. This is not normal, if you still have troubles call X pole and explain it to them, they can give you some more tips and help you out. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif

First your not backwards, there are others that have started on spinny first. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif If you interested in learning how to gain momentum in your spins on static mode, I give you the proper technique for that in the online lessons here. It takes some getting use to, when you have started on spinny first, but you can do it. A lot of spinny hold have you turn your body into the pole and then hold the move…well on static you have to keep moving forward and learn to use your legs and whole body to send you flying. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

For the elbow stand, the majority of the pressure should be on the elbows/forearms, not the head. As with all moves engage your shoulders, so don’t slump into them, keep them strong and working. Try this move against a wall that way you wont miss the pole and fall on your back. I will be doing a lesson on this move too. There is a lesson now but I’ll be going into greater detail in the new one. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_sunny.gif

I NEVER do crunches…boring https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif so I’m with ya there, also only run if I’m being chased https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif Slowing things down its a really good way to gain strength, it takes a lot more effort to do things slowly that putting momentum into everything…like the invert. I don’t know how advanced you are so….try handstands, elbow stands and climbs are all great for strength too. https://stage.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_geek.gif
