    Default Pole Diameter

    I just got my homemade pole its sooo hard to do anything on it. Is it just me or is it the pole. I got a 2 1/2 inch diameter steel pole. What do you prefer??

    I think 2' is the best, but at my club the poles are 3'.. It took a while to get used to them, but I did, and some of the other girls can do awsome tricks on them. But I think 2' is the most comfortable because your hand can wrap around it perfectly, where if it's 2 1/2 or 3 inches, it's harder to get a grip on it.

    I have tried smaller, probably 1 1/2 inches and it is really hard to hang upside down since you really have to squeeze the narrow diameter tightly and my back was killing me the next day. I think 2 inches is the best, but I have never tried anything larger than 2".

    actually it's easier for me to grip on a fat pole. 3'

    strains my chest muscles less too.

    I prefer 2-2 1/2" diameter poles...anything smaller is not doable and anything larger prevents me from getting a good grip.

    It could be the fact that it's steel too. I own a powder coated pole, there's a bress pole on our main stage, and a steel pole in the bachelor party room. Out of all 3, the brass is the easiest and the steel is the SLIPPERIEST! (Slide right off when I try to do anything but twirl.)

    I like the 2-2 1/2 inch poles. The larger ones are too hard to grasp.

    O.K. I think i solved my problem. This time i went with my friend to home depot and i looked at the poles and i felt the 1 1/2 inch better from all of them. So we got that one and its so much better. Glad i changed it with the other one it felt like i was never gonna get it.
