  • Nice job!I talent hat off did u build it yourself?

  • @mightydizzy I did! Check out my other videos for the tutorial. And thank you!

  • if you make this permanent could you do handstands then??

  • @scheyenne87 Sure if you were to bolt the very bottom piece of plywood to your floor, it'd be no problem. The only handstand I can safely do on mine is this: (sorry, not familiar with the actual names of the moves, so bear with my description lol) Climb up the pole and "sit" on it; pole between crossed legs. Lean backwards, slide down until your elbows touch the floor. Reach behind your head, grab the base of the pole to hold it in place. Balance on elbows and release the grip with your legs.

  • I like your moves! I will be investing in one shortly, because I'm dying to learn how to pole dance. I saw one at Spencer's, but you have to piece it together. Do you think it will work just as good?

  • @CountryQueen59109 Thanks! If my memory serves correctly, the pole at Spencer's is spring-loaded. In other words, the only thing holding it between the ceiling and floor is tension. If you were to place all of your weight on one of those poles, the spring mechanism compresses, causing the pole to come loose from the ceiling, possibly causing injury. Just Google the pole you're looking into and find reviews on it. Check out my video on how to build my pole. It's fairly easy!

  • @sexyWVgal I'm honestly not sure... I'd have to see the exact setup you're working with to come to some sort of solution. You might be able to fashion something to the bottom of the pole like I did with mine and then set up the top with the flange and nipple. However, if the pole itself is spring-loaded (holds to the ceiling with tension), you can pretty much forget it cuz it won't hold your weight. just please be careful with whatever route you take! :)

  • Can you make this non-spinning or spinning? I love the spinning pole, but at dance clubs the poles usually don't spin and I'd like to be able to workout with both. :-)

  • wow, I had trouble putting together my ready-made pole and you actually did it all yourself. I wish I had your construction skills and patience!

  • Hey well done, u are amazing on it too x

  • That's pretty ingenious of you, I must say! But I don't think I could ever feel safe or secure dancing on a pole that thin. I have a 50 mm chrome x-pole myself, and I know some people complain that the 50 mm is too big, but I absolutely love it. It provides enough surface area for solid grip with both hands and legs. Your home made one is definitely hundreds of dollars cheaper though!! :)
