Still rusty but I WILL say, this is the slickest pole I’ve ever played on. I actually don’t like that about it at all because it’s harder to grip and stay up. I’m just playing around… every time I get on a pole I have to get reacquainted. I do miss having an actual space of my own JUST for pole. Always take advantage of one when I see it… even when it’s too slick 😉
