The Original Lil' Mynx is a stationary removable dance pole. This pole does not spin. The Lil' Mynx "Rotator" is a combination spinning/stationary removable dance pole. The "Rotator" has a smart designed bearing assembly in the base that allows the pole to rotate freely. With the simple push of a button your Lil' Mynx can change from a static pole to rotating. It's like 2 poles in 1! Other than the bearing assembly and lockout button both poles share the same installation and quality features.
