| anything you can hold onto firmly without hurting your hands, and of course, can support your body weight. chairs are good. |

Might want to change the title to make it clear that you are looking for stuff to hold on to and not a debate topic on using the bar in DDR/ITG
A chair, preferably a heavy one/a sofa/couch really helps.

How about building a bar? If you make it out of PVC it should be pretty simple. If you don't want to do that, the best kind of DDR/ITG chairs tend to be wide...find one of those? |

Barraping is like controllering; it's not beneficial if you seek improvement.
But if all you want to do is beat hard songs, build a good detachable bar.

I disagree, I always use the bar, and I'm constantly improving. Then again I play on 9 - 11 footers. :\ |

I agree, halfway.
If it's a song you can't even come close to without the bar, it's better to play it with the bar.
But if you can AA something no problem no-bar and you barrape it anyway, your improvement will be minimal.
For instance, I'll use the bar on PSM, MaxX Unlimited, and Legend of Max when I'm at the arcade, and usually Max 300 too, because I don't consistantly clear them no-bar.
But I'll generally keep away from it on Cartoon Heros, Healing Vision ~Angelic Mix~, A, V, Across the Nightmare, Sakura, Daikenkai, etc, because I know that I can AA all of those no problem with the bar, and even though I might get a C or a B, it does wonders for my leg muscles and endurance.

well if i start a thread on it i care and i think playing wiht the bar is 100 times easier...its not like i cant play without the bar i just started like a day ago but i used it at the arcade cuz the middle part is bigger than my homepads so i thought maybe using the bar would help me keep my place...and the point of this forum is to help yuber figure out what he can use as a subsitute for a bar at home  |

anyone can play with the bar at the arcade, therefore technically it is not cheating. If one bar was detatched and one wasnt, i guess it might be cheating but guess what? ITS NOT!!
