Hooping - hoop dance and new trick practises

Started just dancing a bit, then did a move that reminded me there were other moves I wanted to practise, including front elbow pass (and attempted back pass to no avail), knee hooping up and down, and jumping out of the hoop. First song is Within Temptation "What Have You Done (acoustic), second is barely audible but it's Dust Brothers "Finding the Bomb", and last is Rilo Kiley "Paint's Peeling". Thanks for watching.

This is excellent! fluid!

you have a variety of tricks to apply! It looks great and smooth

How did you decide on the size? I am having trouble fining a very comfortable size ( i am making my own too). I read that somewhere btwn the belly button and chest is good...

do you have any thoughts? I ask because you look very comfortable with that hoop. thanks.

Hi! Thank you!

To be honest, this was the first hoop I bought. I got it from Hoopnotica, and simply chose the 'standard' size because I didn't know what size I would need. It was a great beginners hoop! It's 42" in diameter, which ended up being too big for me to do vertical tricks with easily. But that is because I am pretty short, at 5'.

A good size hoop usually falls between the belly button and the bottom of the ribcage when stood up next to you. The small the hoop is, the faster it goes, which is why bigger is better for learning. The slower the hoop rotates, the more time you have to do the trick!
