This technique was inspired by the beautiful horizontal "tracing" (moving both hands along the hoop's arc) of Vivian Spiral, which is a cousin to the Hoop Path's "samurai" techniques. I've really gotten into exploring this on the vertical plane. Another very inspirational video was Rich (of Isopop)'s "Vulcan Tech Blog #4"
