Am I the only one that didn’t know...

That when you see a stripper on stage doing amazing spins on the pole, that the damn pole is actually spinning?

Spent a bit of time last week at Bourbon Street in Phx and talked to numerous dancers. One, Jade, that is excellent on the pole, we discussed how hard some of them work up there. I told her that her moves are incredible. She was explaining about the pole spinning and some clubs don’t have poles that spin, they are stationary. Blew my mind. I mean, it makes sense, but I juts honestly never knew it or gave it much thought.

Happy Easter! :)

It’s very interesting to hear that. I thought the poles were stationary.

Is this some sort of strip club customer April fools joke?

Some poles spin, some don’t.

I didn't know either till I saw it mentioned in some reviews, I assume most don't.

I noticed for myself a few months ago when I was at a club where the pole had lights and one could tell it was spinning if.one looked closely enough,

Sheesh, don't any of you guys "talk shop" with your favorites? Next you'll be telling us you had no idea that lucite heels were an expensive necessity.

It would be nice to spin that smoothly and majestically on a stationary pole, but physics and science just don't allow that. Spinning poles always make tricks look more mesmerizing, but it's about a 50/50 split for the clubs that do have them and the ones that don't.

Actual pole fitness studios have a whole variety of poles that don't just offer moving and not moving too.

Just another thing adding to the illusion.

Even with a spinning pole, the moves some perform is really astonishing.

how would a stripper feel if a customer's pole had a unique way of spinning/rotating during a hj? would she scream?

I would have put money on it that BSC pole didnt move because one dancer named Kira who does amazing pole work has rough patches between her legs from spinning on that thing. I was shocked when I was touching her down there how calloused it was.

Maybe the most interesting thing about this thread, is how many tusclers didn't know the pole spins! (in some clubs)

In my defense - my go to club is low budget - and doesn’t have poles.

Maybe the most interesting thing about this thread, is how many tusclers fell for an obvious April Fool's joke.

Spinning poles...ridiculous

From a lot of the dances I've seen, one would think that the pole is stationary as well. I don't think it's possible to be able to spin like some of the dancers do without the pole itself being able to spin as well

I would have thought you were the only one until I read the responses.

Club Lust in Greenville SC has a spinning pole and a key dancers can use to lock it so that it doesn't rotate. I do not believe the little pole on the side stage spins though. The bouncers advise dancers not to climb up on it very much or it could fall as well. It's more for show than the one on the main stage.

Bourbon Street in PHX has a spinning pole. Just checked and I see it spinning.

Stop it, just stop it. When we talk about "spinners" on here, we're not talking about stripper poles.

Think about it, if the pole was spinning, what would happen if a dancer's grip slipped? We would have dancers being randomly flung across the room.

Interesting. I usually don't care much for stage shows though

Next time I go to a club (uh, that would be tomorrow), I'll watch for a spinner doing tricks on the spinning pole - spinning in stereo.

^ just go up on stage and check for yourself if the pole spins
