Thank you for the response! I actually ordered the hoopnotica one less than twenty minutes after commenting. I've been blown away by how quickly it gets easier. Been incorporating years of belly dancing into it and it feels amazing. Can't do it around my shoulders to save my life, but I'm hoping a lighter hoop will help. Again, thank you lady!
So helpful! Beginner hooper and I bought a 42in hoop and it came a couple inches above my belly button and I thought this was to big so I took a piece out and it reached my Belly button. But I could not keep it up at all. But after watching this I realized , since I'm a beginner, it was totes ok for it to be so big. I added the extra piece back on and i was able to keep it up for a bit on my first try! Thanks!
I'd have to disagree with not using one of those cheap hula hoops from the department stores. Yeah, of course, they suck. I'm not denying that by any means. But I started out with one of those crappy ones. Wrapped it up with tape to make it a bit heavier, and made it my own. I wouldn't reccomend going out and buying, either. But, if there's one around the house that your little sister never uses or can only spare a lil' bit of cash at that moment, go ahead. I've been hula hooping for the past 3 years, and have definitely upgraded with my hula hoops (I finally got an LED huly for Xmas). But I think everyone should know that there's nothing wrong with using those crappy ones. You can practice many different tricks with it still, even if it is "too big" or "too small" for you. It's too light, whatever. You can easily teach yourself isolations which is actually the first trick I learned how to do. But when you get the cash, splurge on a nice polypro...or make a huly yourself! : )
That's a really great tip! I want to start hulahoop but don't really have the money to buy a professional one, plus I don't even know if I'm going to take this hobbie seriously... after hearing in the video about the cheap ones I got quite upset 😓 so good to know that cheap ones can be useful too
Agreed. I got my first one that was "too small" from dollar tree ($1) with the beads inside (you might want to empty it then retape because the sound gets annoying IMO). I just wanted to test it out since I wasn't sure how much time I'd spend on getting better at this new hobby. I've been enjoying it a lot more after practicing isos and lassos on the small 27" hoop from DT so I went to Target for an "upgrade." Got a shiny multicolor 36ish inch hoop for $6.99 and have gotten a lot better at my isos. This hoop tubing isn't perfectly circular and has a bit of an oval shape which makes gripping it a little tricky in addition to the shiny, slippery tape that's on it. So you can definitely use them to try it out but I def look forward to my next upgrade whether it's a bigger cheaper hoop to try shoulder hooping or a hoop with a different more professional material
Thank you! I'm an absolute beginner and the most confusing part right now is picking my hoop. Your videos are wonderful, clearly expressed and easy to understand, thanks so much!
if you're 35" and it's an additional 1 or 2 inches for the beginner then I'd suggest a 36" or 37". You can try a 37". If you want a bigger hoop that you can also share with others later on then you can get a 38". I know the avg hoop ppl like is a 36" but since it's your 1st hoop it might be different for you. I think either is fine. Make sure it's PE material (beginners use it) unless you want a lighter hoop in which case get a PVC and 3/4 thick 100 PSI
Besides the fact that you are adorable - that info/video was amazing. Thank you for taking the time to explain all of that info. It's so crazy how much info you should really get straight before buying your first hoop. I was given a hand me down hoop in practically perfect shape that is probably an inch think and 42 inches in diameter and I thought it was way to big so I bought one on etsy for $29 at 37" diameter with 3/4 OD HDPE pipe. Now after seeing this I realize I have 2 great hoops to start with (and somewhere in between both is perfect for my 5 foot tall (slightly overweight body) and really all I need to do is just start flippin hooping. A zillion thumbs up to you.
I just brought the hoopnotica one and was worried that it was 44" and after watching your video and realising I can take a part out makes it the right size. Thank you, I nearly brought a 38" hoop so soon.
I got my hoop today; it's the same as yours. Haven't hulahooped for over 30 years... did it today for the first time since. 10 minutes non stop without it falling down. It's like riding a bicycle: once you know how, you'll never forget ;))
heavier hoops means slower rotation so you can pick up tricks faster if you have more time to prepare for the trick ( the slower rotation) but they might say lighter because it doesn't bruise since it's lighter. heavier is for learning basics tricks (waist, hips thighs,shoulders, chest, corckscrews, halo, weaving, lift up & down) which are extremely important to learn before anything else. i'd recommend the big one heavy one and then the lighter one for later on
if you can do the duck out (so hoop on your waist and then, at the right moment, bend down from the waist so the hoop goes off your body and towards ur hand so when you stand back up the hoop is off ur waist & outside for off body stuff) then you're ready for a ploy pro. poly pros are so light & fast that you have to know how to do a trick properly or else it could smack you in the face. I'd recommend a 100 36" PSI. i use that still to practice new tricks anyway. it's may 1 of my fav hoops too.
since hooping isn't as popular as yoga, they might not have classes in your area. I live in a pretty busy state and there aren't many classes (but i learned from youtube and hoopnotica DVDs anyway). there is a website called Meetup though. type in your city and look up classes through there. If nothing else, there should still be flow jams or workshops (so people with poi, hoops, juggling, flow wands, staffs, & S blades can attend and share with each other)
you can however you might find the hoop doesn't stay where you want it too for a long time. my first hoop was a non taped hoop but i realized the lack of grip made tricks hard to do so i put painters tape on it in the mean time just so i could practice
@atg07LOKA its probably because your natural direction is just eaiser to learn with and going the other way not only means you have to train your body to move unlike its use to but also because the hoop is simply smaller so you have to learn to adjust to the different feeling in the body a lot faster. A bigger hoop means you can adjust to reversing slower. the hoop in this video goes to a 32" too and i've used the 32" for reversing (practicing this week) and, 4 me, its harder for those reasons
Buying stuff today to make my first hoop and you just helped me out a BUNCH! You answered every question I had. Thank you!!! Also, thanks for the James Van Der Beek crying face. :)
I bought 160psi, given that I have literally tried to hoop my whole life and NEVER could. Got that bad boy home, lined her up and hauled it out in my first attempt. I giggled like a freakin school girl. No tricks given the cold outside, but once the weather warms up and I'm more confident, I'm going to try that Hoopnautica one you have. Love it. :)
depends on what your goal is. If it is to fire hoop, LED hoop, or get better no matter what hoop you use, get a normal 100PSI 3/4 hoop that is 36". That is an intermediate hoop. You can get away doing fast or double hooping with the light hoops so you can go to poly pro but you really need to practice with a light big normal hoop since it'll help prepare u for other hoop things you want to try. Water hoops are only good for so long.They don't work that well with body rolls & it's slower workout
i have a 36" 100 PSI hoop that was 3/4 inch thickness which was pretty light, lighter than my other hoops for reason. If you want to move faster then get a size smaller with PSI hoop. If you want to move more as in bigger movements then get a bigger hoop . If you what to go fast and get a good work out and move a lot (good cardio) then get a poly pro. They're very fast because they are light and so they react quickly meaning you're right into your next move in no time
it means pounds per square inch of water the type of tubing can hold. Tubing cames in many different types of plastic material (PP/poly pro, PE, PVC, , HDPE, LHDPE) so the PSI will feel different for each material but it's all the same concept
i have videos on how to waist hoop and also how to walk while hooping so you can always practice walking and hooping on the waist while it's cold. What also helped me become better at moving and my waist was "Hula Hoop Dance Tutorial: Warm Ups with Anah Reichenbach (Part One)". You can literally dance with your hoop without even touching it. It takes practice but it helps you control the hoop AND have fun. SO you can practice walking while hooping, changing currents, & Anah's video. It'll help
collapsible and non-collapsible are good either way. if you don't get collapsible then (if u have a soccer mom van like our family does) the hoops fit perfectly around the seat as if the chair is the stick in a ring toss game so even if its non collapsible it can still travel with you. 100 psi i recommend and if you are comfrotable with walking while hooping then you can get a 37 or a 36. i should've gotten a 40 but got a 38 and it was fine.
Very informative thanks! A friend of mine is supposed to make me a hoop. I have hula hooped before but it's been a long time and I wanna get back into it because it looks like fun and i'm trying to be more active.
as requested there is a hooping video of me with a glow in the dark hoop on my homepage now. the video was super dark and you couldn't see anything so i adjusted it so you at least see an outline of what I'm doing but unfortunately the hoop wasn't glowing as much. trust me though, when the glow tape is charged its is honestly a nightlight when u turn the lights out b/c its so bright. I live in a dorm now so the room lights are fluorescent but y can use sun or simply a bright light to charge it
i got mine from my local gardening store like Ace hardware & Osh. i know there are a few places you can buy tape online but double check on the shipping and how much you get because the shipping was more expensive than the tape when i wanted to order to if you want to get tape, make sure you get a lot so the shipping is worth it
What a lovely surprise! I had no idea you were a French speaker :) Thank you for the answer, it's pretty clear enough for me^^ Today I was shopping and I found a hoop but it was made in PVC and was only 32 inches (too small for me). Can't wait to get one!
how big is the hoop from the ground up? and how light is it? wave hoops can be confusing since they're heavy but at the same time they're not. If i were you, i'd get 1 somewhat beginner hoop so 38", 37". beginner is like 39"-42". That way you'll always have a practice hoop for a beginner. This will help you get more friends to start hooping on the beginner hoop. If you can control the weight & you realize you've already built muscle memory then you can get a beginner intermediate (36", 35", 34")
its probably b/c its 40". by the time most get a poly pro or a LED they've used regular tubing (which is heavier) and gradually gone down sizes. So it might be the size that is making it heavy, otherwise poly pros are one of the lightest hoop materials out there. Grip tape you can get online at various hooping sites, i usually buy hoops with tape already on there. & yep :D I've used the Hoopnotica DVDs. they're very helpful for beginner stuff.Good to have youtube AND a DVD w/ troubleshooting
This is the most informative video I've seen thank you so much! My questions have finally been answered and I'm comfortable picking my next hoop size :)
no worries. Its still better than water hoops, sanded hoops, or weighted hoops. Just watch the hair and if something comes apart & they don't accept returns then super glue it because aside from it yanking hair, rattling, & being wonky ( i personally didn't mind the last one) it's a decent hoop. this again is the hoopnotica travel hoops. I'm assuming they've changed the way they make it because they change it by the time i bought it a year ago. It's due for an upgrade :D
You give wonderful advice. I am 5' 1" and 110 pounds. I was looking into getting a 38" hoop (which is right above my belly button about an inch). You said you recommend 100 psi because 160 is quite heavy. I can hoop well around my waist and walk while hooping as well, I just want to begin tricks. Since you have been hooping for a while now, what brand/type (collapsible/non-collapsible/etc.) do you PERSONALLY recommend. Also, I am looking to dance hoop, not just around the waist hoop.
The water in the hoop will also cause to be off balance, you will probably notice that it seems fine and all of a sudden there is a sudden shift of weight as the water swishes around to the other side. This is the main problem with water hoops.
i think so. I don't realy exercise besides hooping everyday so that's probably it. i didn't get into hooping for exercise either so i don't remember how big i was before. i just did it cuz i love dance in general :D
u don't HAVE to but i recommend it because most people feel they dont have the right weight in their 1st or even 4th hoop so they go heavier or lighter, give up, or get an LED which is also a big no-no (at least in my opinion since most beginners tend to give up on the hard LEDs anyway). it also help you know what hoopers are like in person. thats the only thing i've been close to as far as hoopers learning in almost 2 years since there R no classes close by me either. but U can also live w/o it
Great! So, dumped the water out of one, and added a battery. The hoop was so light! It also seemed kind of unresponsive, but the uneven weight didn't really bother me. With 4 affixed, it went better, and 8 also went well. I kept one of my wave hoops with water in it, and compared as I added batteries. With 8 AA batteries on the hoop it was a little bit heavier then with the water in it, and no batteries. I noticed that the water filled hoop seemed more "flowing", and corkscrews were easier.
Hey! I live in Paris and I really enjoy watching your videos. I am about to buy my first hoop but I have to translate every measurement and equipment: is PER (polyethylene) the same as PE? And also, I was wondering if I can start using one and only hoop to work "body-on" and "body-off" (especially concerning the isolations) Thank you very much for your answer and sorry if my English isn't correct enough^^
@lesann620 someone gave me a LED site but it looks kinda pricy. Are the sites you got your LED ones from more expensive than $200? I know it depends on how many lights and circuits you have but I guess just overall
Hi, I love your tutorials I just got my frist hoop yesterday and I'm eager to learn tricks!!! I have a bit of a predicament so I was wondering if you could help me out! I have a 42 inch 3/4 PSI hoop. I got the hang of hooping really quickly and I want to learn isolations and off body tricks. I tried hand lasso tricks and isolations but the hoop is really wide and heavy and my hand is bruised just from rolling it across my hands. What type and size hoop do you recommend I get? Thanks SO MUCH!
great video, very informative, thank you!===== A little question though...grip tape, is it the one you would use for a tennis raquet, baseball bat or hockey tape kind of thing?
I'm 13, 5'2'' and weigh around 90 pounds. I've been hooping when I can for a little under a month. I can walk backwards/forwards and run while waist hooping, turn in both directions, do basic dance moves, and can do the corkscrew up and down. The hoop I have now is a Walmart Wave Hoop that has water in it. I know I need to get a real hoop, but I'm not sure whether or not I should get one for an intermediate hopper, or a beginner hooper. Any suggestions?
It's 34'' from the ground up, and doesn't come anywhere near my waist. It is super light and flexible. My first hoop (which was the same one) I actually ruined from doing too fast of a lasso. It warped itself out of shape! =0) I can do the same things with a hoop which is 26 1/2''. My Mom recently bought one off of Etsy that is 160 PSI, and 42 inches. It seems soo huge and slow! Thanks you so much for taking the time to reply, I just love your videos! Keep up the awesome hooping.
Wonderful informational video. How do you feel about your Hoopnotica hoop? I've read so many mixed reviews, but they tend to skew towards the negative.
Thank you so much for this video. I've been wondering what tips to follow for buying/making my own hula hoop. I think I'm going to buy my first one. Can't wait!
@gemgen101 Yeah. PSI hoops and Astral and a couple other places are pricey. If you're looking not to spend too much go straight on over to MoodHoops. They're amazingly priced (start at $69 before shipping) and they have some great designs. Plus they're quick since most designs are premade. I've got one and love it. My first one I got was custom and I had to wait like 7 or 8 weeks for it. My MoodHoop I got within about a week. Another I'd recommend for a basic hoop (one color) is SuperHooper.
Is it very necessary to go to a hooping class?, because where i live they are 2-3 hours away and my parents will not take me. i seriously would love how to do this. By the way you are amazing and i cant stop watching your videos
Do you recommend the one that you were holding in the video? It's 640 gram on the website that they are selling it, but there are also hoops that are 1.2 kg for beginners. So I don't know which one to take...
I bought a beginner hoop of 38 inch. I never made hoop before but I see so many girl with smaler hoop. I know this is because they are advanced but I wanted to know, how many time will I use my beginner hoop? Or how will it be too big for me? How long do you use a beginner hoop/so big hoop? Thanks a lot for your video and your answer too! Let the flow be with you!
@lwoodzz I saw your comment when you posted it and decided to make a video with all the answers. I show the web sites and even recommended youtubers as well as DVDs. It should be up in an hour or so (JUST finished it :D its loading), so check my channel later on to see it. I really hope you enjoy. ^_^
hi gemgen, question, I am 4'10" measured from floor to belly. I got 35" should I still get a 40 or should I go with a 38? Any help would be great. Thanks, love the tutorials.
Right now I have a 160 PSi hoop at 38" and I've found it to be both too large and too heavy for me. I actually began learning on one of the Walmart hoops and I was able to learn tricks like the Elevator, and Vortex on it. I then moved to the hoop I have now. But now I'd like to purchase another hoop, but far lighter and a bit smaller. I'm just worried about getting a hoop to small and light for my skill level. Would you recommend just moving to a 100 PSi 36" hoop or to a Poly-Pro hoop?
weighted will feel the same weight all around. I've seen people practice with water hoops but they have problems with certain tricks so they give up on the trick or continue to have problems with the trick and don't add as much style. So when they go to a normal hoop, it's faster and they feel lost. Try to invest in a hoop. ETSY has cheap hoops so for ur beginner get a naked hoop except for grip tape (get grip tape on it).
Thanks for making this video :) it was really helpful, I've been thinking about getting a hoop for a while and I've been wondering about size, because I'm actually quite short, but now I understand picking a large hoop is actually a good idea (and even thinking about the kind that scales down for the future).
but in the mean time, take the water out of your hoop ( they're only what, $8 so it's not a big loss) and then tape 1 battery to the hoop (like attaching a go pro) and see if you can handel tricks with the uneven weight. When you're comfortable with that then add 4-8 more batteries along the hoop to even the weight. If you can handel that then you can get a super light hoop and maybe even an LED. Try that OR just get another normal hoop ( you and ur friends will use it a lot if u get a hoop)
This video should have more views. Very useful. I'm thinking of making my own to start. I already know a few easy trick, but I use a 36'' hoop from the dollar store xD
I'm a begginer and want to buy a really good hoop because I've been using a kids toys r us hoop. I'm thinking of buying one from hipsterhoops. would that be good? Or should I go with hoop nautica or something else completely?
where can you buy grip tape locally ? And what size should I get on a 3/4" tube ? Also is the 3/4" for beginners a O.D. or I.D ? And I seen one girl have the grip tape only on this inside ..do you suggest that ?
I have a whole video about it. These are just A FEW of the many I mention in there. unityhoops, trinitystarr (met him in person, he's really down to earth and his hoops are great), and on the etsy website there are shops like featherhoops, citivacreationz, hoopmamas, innercirclehoops, harmonichoops, dance hoops and tons more as long as you search hoops. there's more on my video but just dont buy a hoop from toysrus , walmart, target, or anything like that
i have a video all about where to buy hoops. You can also search a lot more sites that sell hoops ad tapes, its just a matter of internet research but a great start is to check out my video on where to get hoops, DVDs, and youtube video & channel recommendations. it's in my hule hoop playlist
Good tip! I'll be making my own hoop after this I think then at least I know I'm getting what I payed for lol. Just thought this one was handy because you can take it apart and make it smaller/bigger with the extra piece. I ordered mine from another website because I'm in Europe but I think it's the same brand! Ok fingers crossed, can't wait till tomorrow haha.Thanks for your reactions!
@gemgen101 Oooh, what kind are you looking at? I have a custom LED from Cosmic Hooper and a Candy from MoodHoops. I'll probably get one or two more MoodHoops at some point so I can multihoop with hoops that are the same size/weight, as well as some LED minis from them, but eventually I want to invest in a Phoenix Hoop from Hoop Daddy or an Atomic Hoop from Astral. They're $300-$350 but they're amazing.
not a poly pro. I mean sure, if you have the money then get it but you'll be wasiting your money if you don't know what size you work best in and if you don't know how to work with the lightness. For sure, get a 100 PSI and try a 37. the weight change and size change will help a lot. a 36 100 psi is pretty light as well which is why it's the 2nd hoop i use the most (first is poly pro) but i guess that's because i like how light it is and i can handle it. Whatever you think your ready for really
So it's better to have a heavier hoop i'm a beginner? Cus i've been looking at hoops online, and i can't really decide between two hoops. They're basically the same, only one is 1.2 kg, and the other is 1.5 kg. But it says that the heavier hoop is for level two hoopers, and the lighter one is for beginners. What should i do now?
i have a video all about where to buy them and the websites and stores. there are no physical places to buy hoops unless they sell them @ your local hooping class thus most hoops will be online. Unityhoops is a good place and the website Etsy is good as well. Some shops to look for on etsy that I can remember are hoopmamas, featherhoops, & citivacreations. Don't recommend hoops from hoopnotica though. & DO NOT get LED hoops. They're not designed for beginners despite coming in "beginner sizes"
I'm 5'5 and plus size (size 18-20) and I want to try hooping. I'm a total beginner, except for being able to do basic waist hooping in middle school with a large hoop (I remember it had water in it or something and was fairly heavy) for 10 plus minutes. I feel like having a little weight to it will make it easier, but not too heavy. What is the best hoop that I should buy? Or where should I look to purchase one online?
I found this shop on Etsy, called "DanceHoops" that makes hoops you can shrink, kind of like Hoopnotica Breakaways, only they don't have the push buttons. So maybe I could get a hoop that is a beginner size, that shrinks to 36''. That way my friends can use it in the beginner size. Now just ONE more question! How much grip tape? She makes hoops that have all grip tape, some with just one strip, and some with 2 or more. How much is too much?
i'm so confused as to what psi means i'm looking into diying my hoop and i figured the only thing that mattered when doing that is the height and thickness of the hoop along with the tape.
psi means "pounds per square inch". The tubing used for hoops is actually tubing that is normally used for hoses carrying liquids or gases under pressure. PSI is a measure of how much pressure per unit of area a material can withstand. The place you would normally see this measure in an everyday situation is in your car, i.e. the pressure you pump your car tires up to. Car tires are basically just tubes. The higher the PSI, the stronger the material has to be to withstand the pressure, so the thicker the wall of the tubing will be and the heavier the tubing gets. Therefore, if you are diying, it is important to know the psi (or in other therms, the wall thickness) of the tubing because it definitely affects the overall weight of the hoop.
I'm confused with the psi too. Hoops I'm looking to buy are stating their weight in grams :/ what is 100 psi in grams does anyone know please? I can't find a conversion calculator on line for this.
For PSI explanation I wrote one under Milica Trajkovic's question. The psi is relative to the material as well, as the same outer diameter , inner diameter tube will handle different psi depending on if it's vinyl, pvc, rubber.....
What was your experience with the hoopnotica breakaways? I got it two days ago and the first day one of the segments broke. Is it a good hoop to start off with?
Confused by "PSI" for weight. All the hoops I am looking at online mention pounds, from 1 to 5 pounds, and not one mentions PSI. Please clarify. I'm just starting out, though I learned to hula hoop in the 80's with an old-fashioned hoop that was weighted with crunchy material. I a man of about 5'9" and 195 pounds.
Hi! I bought a 35 in 3/4 HDPE as my first hoop and I am beginner. I was wondering if that is fine because I have a small frame and I am very short (5 ft exactly) and I have practically no torso and long legs. Help?? And I was also very worried about weight and bruising because (unfortunately) I'm a pretty weak and easily bruised person. Tips?
Hey, it's me again (from France^^) I couldn't answer earlier thant now but I have a question. Actually I don't get it: I thought you said PVC was too light for hooping and PE was way better for many reasons. But in your previous comment, you mention PVC as the best for a beginner :/ I allow myself to ask the question because you wrote it in French so I thought maybe I didn't get the correct idea. Well anyway, thank you for taking the time to answer. Cheers from Paris!
i actually don't recommend it because the screws com eloose and pull your hair out unexpectedly. But if you don't mind that then at least it's a light enough hoop where it wont scare you away from hooping over all. & who knows, they probably changed the way they made the hoops so maybe it also doesn't rattle anymore. But at the time i got it and with how they made it, i wouldn't recommend it.
oui, PER=PE/Polyethylene Si cette traduction du français n'a pas de sens, laissez-moi savoir et je vais écrire en anglais. PARIS! Beautiful! Aimer Paris! Oui, vous pouvez utiliser 1 hula hoop pour hors corps et 1 cerceau pour le corps. Je recommande que réellement. Off corps hula hoop peut être utilisé plus tard pour le corps quand le corps le hula hoop est trop lourd ou trop grand pour pratiquer rapidement. essayer d'obtenir PP pour le corps off. Vous allez adorer
I have a question ... Its that I learnt to hula hoop through your video for beginners .. But my hoop is very light and when I hula hoop it it stays for 10-20 seconds and then it becomes slow and falls of
Moksha Pathan Get a weighted hula hoop and one that has a diameter that comes up to your mid section. My wife got one and I'd thought I'd never be able to do it but was surprised how easy it was once you get the rhythm right.
I was thinking exact the same thing but I ordered it anyway, I saw someone asking for a refund on the selling website when she had a defect hoop so hopefully I can count on that if mine is like that. I'll get it by Tuesday, will keep you updated! :) It better be good for that price lol.
Thank you for the response! I actually ordered the hoopnotica one less than twenty minutes after commenting. I've been blown away by how quickly it gets easier. Been incorporating years of belly dancing into it and it feels amazing. Can't do it around my shoulders to save my life, but I'm hoping a lighter hoop will help. Again, thank you lady!
So helpful! Beginner hooper and I bought a 42in hoop and it came a couple inches above my belly button and I thought this was to big so I took a piece out and it reached my Belly button. But I could not keep it up at all. But after watching this I realized , since I'm a beginner, it was totes ok for it to be so big. I added the extra piece back on and i was able to keep it up for a bit on my first try! Thanks!
I'd have to disagree with not using one of those cheap hula hoops from the department stores. Yeah, of course, they suck. I'm not denying that by any means. But I started out with one of those crappy ones. Wrapped it up with tape to make it a bit heavier, and made it my own. I wouldn't reccomend going out and buying, either. But, if there's one around the house that your little sister never uses or can only spare a lil' bit of cash at that moment, go ahead. I've been hula hooping for the past 3 years, and have definitely upgraded with my hula hoops (I finally got an LED huly for Xmas). But I think everyone should know that there's nothing wrong with using those crappy ones. You can practice many different tricks with it still, even if it is "too big" or "too small" for you. It's too light, whatever. You can easily teach yourself isolations which is actually the first trick I learned how to do. But when you get the cash, splurge on a nice polypro...or make a huly yourself! : )
i started with a water filled one from Walmart until i had the money for an actual hoop. :)
That's a really great tip! I want to start hulahoop but don't really have the money to buy a professional one, plus I don't even know if I'm going to take this hobbie seriously... after hearing in the video about the cheap ones I got quite upset 😓 so good to know that cheap ones can be useful too
Agreed. I got my first one that was "too small" from dollar tree ($1) with the beads inside (you might want to empty it then retape because the sound gets annoying IMO). I just wanted to test it out since I wasn't sure how much time I'd spend on getting better at this new hobby. I've been enjoying it a lot more after practicing isos and lassos on the small 27" hoop from DT so I went to Target for an "upgrade." Got a shiny multicolor 36ish inch hoop for $6.99 and have gotten a lot better at my isos. This hoop tubing isn't perfectly circular and has a bit of an oval shape which makes gripping it a little tricky in addition to the shiny, slippery tape that's on it. So you can definitely use them to try it out but I def look forward to my next upgrade whether it's a bigger cheaper hoop to try shoulder hooping or a hoop with a different more professional material
Thank you! I'm an absolute beginner and the most confusing part right now is picking my hoop. Your videos are wonderful, clearly expressed and easy to understand, thanks so much!
if you're 35" and it's an additional 1 or 2 inches for the beginner then I'd suggest a 36" or 37". You can try a 37". If you want a bigger hoop that you can also share with others later on then you can get a 38". I know the avg hoop ppl like is a 36" but since it's your 1st hoop it might be different for you. I think either is fine. Make sure it's PE material (beginners use it) unless you want a lighter hoop in which case get a PVC and 3/4 thick 100 PSI
Besides the fact that you are adorable - that info/video was amazing. Thank you for taking the time to explain all of that info. It's so crazy how much info you should really get straight before buying your first hoop. I was given a hand me down hoop in practically perfect shape that is probably an inch think and 42 inches in diameter and I thought it was way to big so I bought one on etsy for $29 at 37" diameter with 3/4 OD HDPE pipe. Now after seeing this I realize I have 2 great hoops to start with (and somewhere in between both is perfect for my 5 foot tall (slightly overweight body) and really all I need to do is just start flippin hooping. A zillion thumbs up to you.
I just brought the hoopnotica one and was worried that it was 44" and after watching your video and realising I can take a part out makes it the right size. Thank you, I nearly brought a 38" hoop so soon.
I got my hoop today; it's the same as yours. Haven't hulahooped for over 30 years... did it today for the first time since. 10 minutes non stop without it falling down. It's like riding a bicycle: once you know how, you'll never forget ;))
heavier hoops means slower rotation so you can pick up tricks faster if you have more time to prepare for the trick ( the slower rotation) but they might say lighter because it doesn't bruise since it's lighter. heavier is for learning basics tricks (waist, hips thighs,shoulders, chest, corckscrews, halo, weaving, lift up & down) which are extremely important to learn before anything else. i'd recommend the big one heavy one and then the lighter one for later on
if you can do the duck out (so hoop on your waist and then, at the right moment, bend down from the waist so the hoop goes off your body and towards ur hand so when you stand back up the hoop is off ur waist & outside for off body stuff) then you're ready for a ploy pro. poly pros are so light & fast that you have to know how to do a trick properly or else it could smack you in the face. I'd recommend a 100 36" PSI. i use that still to practice new tricks anyway. it's may 1 of my fav hoops too.
Thanks for all the helpful information! I didn't even know about let alone where to start about the diameter and psi numbers!
since hooping isn't as popular as yoga, they might not have classes in your area. I live in a pretty busy state and there aren't many classes (but i learned from youtube and hoopnotica DVDs anyway). there is a website called Meetup though. type in your city and look up classes through there. If nothing else, there should still be flow jams or workshops (so people with poi, hoops, juggling, flow wands, staffs, & S blades can attend and share with each other)
you can however you might find the hoop doesn't stay where you want it too for a long time. my first hoop was a non taped hoop but i realized the lack of grip made tricks hard to do so i put painters tape on it in the mean time just so i could practice
@atg07LOKA its probably because your natural direction is just eaiser to learn with and going the other way not only means you have to train your body to move unlike its use to but also because the hoop is simply smaller so you have to learn to adjust to the different feeling in the body a lot faster. A bigger hoop means you can adjust to reversing slower. the hoop in this video goes to a 32" too and i've used the 32" for reversing (practicing this week) and, 4 me, its harder for those reasons
Buying stuff today to make my first hoop and you just helped me out a BUNCH! You answered every question I had. Thank you!!! Also, thanks for the James Van Der Beek crying face. :)
I bought 160psi, given that I have literally tried to hoop my whole life and NEVER could. Got that bad boy home, lined her up and hauled it out in my first attempt. I giggled like a freakin school girl. No tricks given the cold outside, but once the weather warms up and I'm more confident, I'm going to try that Hoopnautica one you have. Love it. :)
depends on what your goal is. If it is to fire hoop, LED hoop, or get better no matter what hoop you use, get a normal 100PSI 3/4 hoop that is 36". That is an intermediate hoop. You can get away doing fast or double hooping with the light hoops so you can go to poly pro but you really need to practice with a light big normal hoop since it'll help prepare u for other hoop things you want to try. Water hoops are only good for so long.They don't work that well with body rolls & it's slower workout
i have a 36" 100 PSI hoop that was 3/4 inch thickness which was pretty light, lighter than my other hoops for reason. If you want to move faster then get a size smaller with PSI hoop. If you want to move more as in bigger movements then get a bigger hoop . If you what to go fast and get a good work out and move a lot (good cardio) then get a poly pro. They're very fast because they are light and so they react quickly meaning you're right into your next move in no time
it means pounds per square inch of water the type of tubing can hold. Tubing cames in many different types of plastic material (PP/poly pro, PE, PVC, , HDPE, LHDPE) so the PSI will feel different for each material but it's all the same concept
i have videos on how to waist hoop and also how to walk while hooping so you can always practice walking and hooping on the waist while it's cold. What also helped me become better at moving and my waist was "Hula Hoop Dance Tutorial: Warm Ups with Anah Reichenbach (Part One)". You can literally dance with your hoop without even touching it. It takes practice but it helps you control the hoop AND have fun. SO you can practice walking while hooping, changing currents, & Anah's video. It'll help
yes you can make your own hoop, there are a few web sites that show you how and materials that you need
collapsible and non-collapsible are good either way. if you don't get collapsible then (if u have a soccer mom van like our family does) the hoops fit perfectly around the seat as if the chair is the stick in a ring toss game so even if its non collapsible it can still travel with you. 100 psi i recommend and if you are comfrotable with walking while hooping then you can get a 37 or a 36. i should've gotten a 40 but got a 38 and it was fine.
Very informative thanks! A friend of mine is supposed to make me a hoop. I have hula hooped before but it's been a long time and I wanna get back into it because it looks like fun and i'm trying to be more active.
as requested there is a hooping video of me with a glow in the dark hoop on my homepage now. the video was super dark and you couldn't see anything so i adjusted it so you at least see an outline of what I'm doing but unfortunately the hoop wasn't glowing as much. trust me though, when the glow tape is charged its is honestly a nightlight when u turn the lights out b/c its so bright. I live in a dorm now so the room lights are fluorescent but y can use sun or simply a bright light to charge it
i got mine from my local gardening store like Ace hardware & Osh. i know there are a few places you can buy tape online but double check on the shipping and how much you get because the shipping was more expensive than the tape when i wanted to order to if you want to get tape, make sure you get a lot so the shipping is worth it
What a lovely surprise! I had no idea you were a French speaker :) Thank you for the answer, it's pretty clear enough for me^^ Today I was shopping and I found a hoop but it was made in PVC and was only 32 inches (too small for me). Can't wait to get one!
how big is the hoop from the ground up? and how light is it? wave hoops can be confusing since they're heavy but at the same time they're not. If i were you, i'd get 1 somewhat beginner hoop so 38", 37". beginner is like 39"-42". That way you'll always have a practice hoop for a beginner. This will help you get more friends to start hooping on the beginner hoop. If you can control the weight & you realize you've already built muscle memory then you can get a beginner intermediate (36", 35", 34")
You can get everything you need at the hardware store to make your own❤️ I wrap mine in gaffer tape because it helps the hoop stick to the body more
its probably b/c its 40". by the time most get a poly pro or a LED they've used regular tubing (which is heavier) and gradually gone down sizes. So it might be the size that is making it heavy, otherwise poly pros are one of the lightest hoop materials out there. Grip tape you can get online at various hooping sites, i usually buy hoops with tape already on there. & yep :D I've used the Hoopnotica DVDs. they're very helpful for beginner stuff.Good to have youtube AND a DVD w/ troubleshooting
Very helpful! Especially the part about the tape- was considering vinyl for a hot second!
Ok this has been the most informative and helpful video yet, so thank you!!!!!
This is the most informative video I've seen thank you so much! My questions have finally been answered and I'm comfortable picking my next hoop size :)
no worries. Its still better than water hoops, sanded hoops, or weighted hoops. Just watch the hair and if something comes apart & they don't accept returns then super glue it because aside from it yanking hair, rattling, & being wonky ( i personally didn't mind the last one) it's a decent hoop. this again is the hoopnotica travel hoops. I'm assuming they've changed the way they make it because they change it by the time i bought it a year ago. It's due for an upgrade :D
super helpful video! i didn't understand all the measurement stuff when i was looking to buy my own hoop, but this helped a lot! thank you!!!
You give wonderful advice. I am 5' 1" and 110 pounds. I was looking into getting a 38" hoop (which is right above my belly button about an inch). You said you recommend 100 psi because 160 is quite heavy. I can hoop well around my waist and walk while hooping as well, I just want to begin tricks. Since you have been hooping for a while now, what brand/type (collapsible/non-collapsible/etc.) do you PERSONALLY recommend. Also, I am looking to dance hoop, not just around the waist hoop.
The water in the hoop will also cause to be off balance, you will probably notice that it seems fine and all of a sudden there is a sudden shift of weight as the water swishes around to the other side. This is the main problem with water hoops.
i think so. I don't realy exercise besides hooping everyday so that's probably it. i didn't get into hooping for exercise either so i don't remember how big i was before. i just did it cuz i love dance in general :D
u don't HAVE to but i recommend it because most people feel they dont have the right weight in their 1st or even 4th hoop so they go heavier or lighter, give up, or get an LED which is also a big no-no (at least in my opinion since most beginners tend to give up on the hard LEDs anyway). it also help you know what hoopers are like in person. thats the only thing i've been close to as far as hoopers learning in almost 2 years since there R no classes close by me either. but U can also live w/o it
Great! So, dumped the water out of one, and added a battery. The hoop was so light! It also seemed kind of unresponsive, but the uneven weight didn't really bother me. With 4 affixed, it went better, and 8 also went well. I kept one of my wave hoops with water in it, and compared as I added batteries. With 8 AA batteries on the hoop it was a little bit heavier then with the water in it, and no batteries. I noticed that the water filled hoop seemed more "flowing", and corkscrews were easier.
Hey! I live in Paris and I really enjoy watching your videos. I am about to buy my first hoop but I have to translate every measurement and equipment: is PER (polyethylene) the same as PE? And also, I was wondering if I can start using one and only hoop to work "body-on" and "body-off" (especially concerning the isolations) Thank you very much for your answer and sorry if my English isn't correct enough^^
@lesann620 someone gave me a LED site but it looks kinda pricy. Are the sites you got your LED ones from more expensive than $200? I know it depends on how many lights and circuits you have but I guess just overall
Hi, I love your tutorials I just got my frist hoop yesterday and I'm eager to learn tricks!!! I have a bit of a predicament so I was wondering if you could help me out! I have a 42 inch 3/4 PSI hoop. I got the hang of hooping really quickly and I want to learn isolations and off body tricks. I tried hand lasso tricks and isolations but the hoop is really wide and heavy and my hand is bruised just from rolling it across my hands. What type and size hoop do you recommend I get? Thanks SO MUCH!
great video, very informative, thank you!===== A little question though...grip tape, is it the one you would use for a tennis raquet, baseball bat or hockey tape kind of thing?
I'm 13, 5'2'' and weigh around 90 pounds. I've been hooping when I can for a little under a month. I can walk backwards/forwards and run while waist hooping, turn in both directions, do basic dance moves, and can do the corkscrew up and down. The hoop I have now is a Walmart Wave Hoop that has water in it. I know I need to get a real hoop, but I'm not sure whether or not I should get one for an intermediate hopper, or a beginner hooper. Any suggestions?
It's 34'' from the ground up, and doesn't come anywhere near my waist. It is super light and flexible. My first hoop (which was the same one) I actually ruined from doing too fast of a lasso. It warped itself out of shape! =0) I can do the same things with a hoop which is 26 1/2''. My Mom recently bought one off of Etsy that is 160 PSI, and 42 inches. It seems soo huge and slow!
Thanks you so much for taking the time to reply, I just love your videos! Keep up the awesome hooping.
Wonderful informational video. How do you feel about your Hoopnotica hoop? I've read so many mixed reviews, but they tend to skew towards the negative.
Thank you so much for this video. I've been wondering what tips to follow for buying/making my own hula hoop. I think I'm going to buy my first one. Can't wait!
@gemgen101 Yeah. PSI hoops and Astral and a couple other places are pricey. If you're looking not to spend too much go straight on over to MoodHoops. They're amazingly priced (start at $69 before shipping) and they have some great designs. Plus they're quick since most designs are premade. I've got one and love it. My first one I got was custom and I had to wait like 7 or 8 weeks for it. My MoodHoop I got within about a week. Another I'd recommend for a basic hoop (one color) is SuperHooper.
Does hula hooping help you be in "shape"? Like help you have a flatter stomach, waist...? Great and helpful video by the way :) thnx for this
Is it very necessary to go to a hooping class?, because where i live they are 2-3 hours away and my parents will not take me. i seriously would love how to do this. By the way you are amazing and i cant stop watching your videos
This was very informative. Just what I needed as I'm just starting. Subscribed.
Do you recommend the one that you were holding in the video? It's 640 gram on the website that they are selling it, but there are also hoops that are 1.2 kg for beginners. So I don't know which one to take...
I bought a beginner hoop of 38 inch. I never made hoop before but I see so many girl with smaler hoop. I know this is because they are advanced but I wanted to know, how many time will I use my beginner hoop? Or how will it be too big for me? How long do you use a beginner hoop/so big hoop?
Thanks a lot for your video and your answer too!
Let the flow be with you!
@lwoodzz I saw your comment when you posted it and decided to make a video with all the answers. I show the web sites and even recommended youtubers as well as DVDs. It should be up in an hour or so (JUST finished it :D its loading), so check my channel later on to see it. I really hope you enjoy. ^_^
hi gemgen, question, I am 4'10" measured from floor to belly. I got 35" should I still get a 40 or should I go with a 38? Any help would be great. Thanks, love the tutorials.
Where did you get the adjustable hoop that you can take a section out to go from beginner to intermediate size?
I just bought my hoop!!! ^-^ I'm so excited!
Right now I have a 160 PSi hoop at 38" and I've found it to be both too large and too heavy for me. I actually began learning on one of the Walmart hoops and I was able to learn tricks like the Elevator, and Vortex on it. I then moved to the hoop I have now. But now I'd like to purchase another hoop, but far lighter and a bit smaller. I'm just worried about getting a hoop to small and light for my skill level. Would you recommend just moving to a 100 PSi 36" hoop or to a Poly-Pro hoop?
weighted will feel the same weight all around. I've seen people practice with water hoops but they have problems with certain tricks so they give up on the trick or continue to have problems with the trick and don't add as much style. So when they go to a normal hoop, it's faster and they feel lost. Try to invest in a hoop. ETSY has cheap hoops so for ur beginner get a naked hoop except for grip tape (get grip tape on it).
you have so many videos, can you point to the one where you purchase them? I am a beginnner and want to buy one, thanks inadvance
This is helpful I went to meijer and got a water hoop works as well as the weighted ones and it is only like six bucks
Are weighted hoops the same as water filled hoops? I have a water filled one and am wondering if thats not a good one to practice with
Thanks for making this video :) it was really helpful, I've been thinking about getting a hoop for a while and I've been wondering about size, because I'm actually quite short, but now I understand picking a large hoop is actually a good idea (and even thinking about the kind that scales down for the future).
but in the mean time, take the water out of your hoop ( they're only what, $8 so it's not a big loss) and then tape 1 battery to the hoop (like attaching a go pro) and see if you can handel tricks with the uneven weight. When you're comfortable with that then add 4-8 more batteries along the hoop to even the weight. If you can handel that then you can get a super light hoop and maybe even an LED. Try that OR just get another normal hoop ( you and ur friends will use it a lot if u get a hoop)
This video should have more views. Very useful. I'm thinking of making my own to start. I already know a few easy trick, but I use a 36'' hoop from the dollar store xD
I'm a begginer and want to buy a really good hoop because I've been using a kids toys r us hoop. I'm thinking of buying one from hipsterhoops. would that be good? Or should I go with hoop nautica or something else completely?
where can you buy grip tape locally ? And what size should I get on a 3/4" tube ? Also is the 3/4" for beginners a O.D. or I.D ? And I seen one girl have the grip tape only on this inside ..do you suggest that ?
I'm 5'2 1/2, so where am I? you have under 5'2'' and 5'3'' and up. would I be better off with 38 or 40 inches?
I have a whole video about it. These are just A FEW of the many I mention in there. unityhoops, trinitystarr (met him in person, he's really down to earth and his hoops are great), and on the etsy website there are shops like featherhoops, citivacreationz, hoopmamas, innercirclehoops, harmonichoops, dance hoops and tons more as long as you search hoops.
there's more on my video but just dont buy a hoop from toysrus , walmart, target, or anything like that
You mentioned you use a Hoopnotica travel hoop- this is a weighted hoop, correct? Is this the right hoop for hoopdancing or just fitness?
You explained the guidelines very well, thanks for all the information, you helped me buy my perfect first hoop :)
Hi, do you know the exact size and thickness of NAtive American Hoops?
i have a video all about where to buy hoops. You can also search a lot more sites that sell hoops ad tapes, its just a matter of internet research but a great start is to check out my video on where to get hoops, DVDs, and youtube video & channel recommendations. it's in my hule hoop playlist
Good tip! I'll be making my own hoop after this I think then at least I know I'm getting what I payed for lol. Just thought this one was handy because you can take it apart and make it smaller/bigger with the extra piece. I ordered mine from another website because I'm in Europe but I think it's the same brand! Ok fingers crossed, can't wait till tomorrow haha.Thanks for your reactions!
What are some good brands that you recommend for beginners?
@gemgen101 Oooh, what kind are you looking at? I have a custom LED from Cosmic Hooper and a Candy from MoodHoops. I'll probably get one or two more MoodHoops at some point so I can multihoop with hoops that are the same size/weight, as well as some LED minis from them, but eventually I want to invest in a Phoenix Hoop from Hoop Daddy or an Atomic Hoop from Astral. They're $300-$350 but they're amazing.
not a poly pro. I mean sure, if you have the money then get it but you'll be wasiting your money if you don't know what size you work best in and if you don't know how to work with the lightness.
For sure, get a 100 PSI and try a 37. the weight change and size change will help a lot. a 36 100 psi is pretty light as well which is why it's the 2nd hoop i use the most (first is poly pro) but i guess that's because i like how light it is and i can handle it. Whatever you think your ready for really
So it's better to have a heavier hoop i'm a beginner? Cus i've been looking at hoops online, and i can't really decide between two hoops.
They're basically the same, only one is 1.2 kg, and the other is 1.5 kg. But it says that the heavier hoop is for level two hoopers, and the lighter one is for beginners. What should i do now?
I am a beginner hula hooper... The hoop I am looking at is 3/4" tubing and 1lb. Is this one a good idea to get?
i have a video all about where to buy them and the websites and stores.
there are no physical places to buy hoops unless they sell them @ your local hooping class thus most hoops will be online. Unityhoops is a good place and the website Etsy is good as well. Some shops to look for on etsy that I can remember are hoopmamas, featherhoops, & citivacreations. Don't recommend hoops from hoopnotica though. & DO NOT get LED hoops. They're not designed for beginners despite coming in "beginner sizes"
Thank you SO MUCH for this video! You told me exactly what I needed to know that I couldn't even really find via google. Awesome.
Thank you! Excellent video with lots of information.
Where would you recommend buying a hoop offline?
I'm 5'5 and plus size (size 18-20) and I want to try hooping. I'm a total beginner, except for being able to do basic waist hooping in middle school with a large hoop (I remember it had water in it or something and was fairly heavy) for 10 plus minutes. I feel like having a little weight to it will make it easier, but not too heavy. What is the best hoop that I should buy? Or where should I look to purchase one online?
I found this shop on Etsy, called "DanceHoops" that makes hoops you can shrink, kind of like Hoopnotica Breakaways, only they don't have the push buttons. So maybe I could get a hoop that is a beginner size, that shrinks to 36''. That way my friends can use it in the beginner size. Now just ONE more question! How much grip tape? She makes hoops that have all grip tape, some with just one strip, and some with 2 or more. How much is too much?
i'm so confused as to what psi means
i'm looking into diying my hoop and i figured the only thing that mattered when doing that is the height and thickness of the hoop along with the tape.
psi means "pounds per square inch". The tubing used for hoops is actually tubing that is normally used for hoses carrying liquids or gases under pressure. PSI is a measure of how much pressure per unit of area a material can withstand. The place you would normally see this measure in an everyday situation is in your car, i.e. the pressure you pump your car tires up to. Car tires are basically just tubes. The higher the PSI, the stronger the material has to be to withstand the pressure, so the thicker the wall of the tubing will be and the heavier the tubing gets. Therefore, if you are diying, it is important to know the psi (or in other therms, the wall thickness) of the tubing because it definitely affects the overall weight of the hoop.
I'm confused with the psi too. Hoops I'm looking to buy are stating their weight in grams :/ what is 100 psi in grams does anyone know please? I can't find a conversion calculator on line for this.
CharlieBee psi is presure per square inch so like im not sure how a collapsible hoops could hold air so idk
For PSI explanation I wrote one under Milica Trajkovic's question. The psi is relative to the material as well, as the same outer diameter , inner diameter tube will handle different psi depending on if it's vinyl, pvc, rubber.....
What was your experience with the hoopnotica breakaways? I got it two days ago and the first day one of the segments broke. Is it a good hoop to start off with?
Confused by "PSI" for weight. All the hoops I am looking at online mention pounds, from 1 to 5 pounds, and not one mentions PSI. Please clarify. I'm just starting out, though I learned to hula hoop in the 80's with an old-fashioned hoop that was weighted with crunchy material. I a man of about 5'9" and 195 pounds.
Hi,
Where did you your hoops?
Thanks
Hi! I bought a 35 in 3/4 HDPE as my first hoop and I am beginner. I was wondering if that is fine because I have a small frame and I am very short (5 ft exactly) and I have practically no torso and long legs. Help?? And I was also very worried about weight and bruising because (unfortunately) I'm a pretty weak and easily bruised person. Tips?
What website do you get your hula hoops from?
Hey, it's me again (from France^^) I couldn't answer earlier thant now but I have a question. Actually I don't get it: I thought you said PVC was too light for hooping and PE was way better for many reasons. But in your previous comment, you mention PVC as the best for a beginner :/ I allow myself to ask the question because you wrote it in French so I thought maybe I didn't get the correct idea. Well anyway, thank you for taking the time to answer. Cheers from Paris!
Stupid question: are the sizes a measurement of radius or a measurement of circumference?
i actually don't recommend it because the screws com eloose and pull your hair out unexpectedly. But if you don't mind that then at least it's a light enough hoop where it wont scare you away from hooping over all. & who knows, they probably changed the way they made the hoops so maybe it also doesn't rattle anymore. But at the time i got it and with how they made it, i wouldn't recommend it.
oui, PER=PE/Polyethylene
Si cette traduction du français n'a pas de sens, laissez-moi savoir et je vais écrire en anglais.
PARIS! Beautiful! Aimer Paris!
Oui, vous pouvez utiliser 1 hula hoop pour hors corps et 1 cerceau pour le corps. Je recommande que réellement. Off corps hula hoop peut être utilisé plus tard pour le corps quand le corps le hula hoop est trop lourd ou trop grand pour pratiquer rapidement. essayer d'obtenir PP pour le corps off. Vous allez adorer
Hi ,
Please can you tell me of the hoop that 100psi in Kg?
Thank you
I have a question ... Its that I learnt to hula hoop through your video for beginners .. But my hoop is very light and when I hula hoop it it stays for 10-20 seconds and then it becomes slow and falls of
Moksha Pathan Get a weighted hula hoop and one that has a diameter that comes up to your mid section. My wife got one and I'd thought I'd never be able to do it but was surprised how easy it was once you get the rhythm right.
Thank you ..I'll buy heavy one parttroll1
I was thinking exact the same thing but I ordered it anyway, I saw someone asking for a refund on the selling website when she had a defect hoop so hopefully I can count on that if mine is like that. I'll get it by Tuesday, will keep you updated! :) It better be good for that price lol.
Hey :)
when did you get your first polypro?
