I´ve written something on boobs and bras that you might want to read: http://www.hoopcity.ca/forum/topics/almost-everything-about-bras
I know it´s not about vertical hooping, but wearing the correct size make a big, big difference. And 90% of you ladies aren´t wearing the right size, even if you got professionally fitted. (That´s because a store will fit you with whatever sizes they are carrying, which is usually is just band 75-85, cups A-D. Bras range from 60-130, AAA-K, and there are several onlines stores that carry lots of pretty and affordable bras in these sizes)


And, there is NOT SUCH THING as an A or DD cup. Cup size is always relative to band size.
I have small breasts, and I wear a 28DD (60E in Eur). If I were wearing a 32 band, that would be a B cup, and if I wore a 34 that would be an A cup.

Both the cups here are DD... but as you can see they are not the same !
DD cups are big in the NZ band size 18 (UK 40) and quite small in NZ 8 (UK 30)

I've thought the same thing, 34DD here. Getting it from below my breasts to above my breasts takes an extra effort I have to really forward bump and throw it over the girls in one big jump. Once I'm in the sweet spot above my breasts and below my neck it's OK.

I have to exact opposite problem! I have a small chest and cannot figure out chest hooping for the life of me. I have watched all the tutorials and it always always either slides up to my neck or tumbles down to my waist after a few revolutions. I wondered at first if it was because I didn't have that "shelf" advantage of a larger chest, but now I know we all have issues. What is the secret to chest hooping?

How long do you try to chesthoop? I started not long ago (maybe two days) and am making some very small progress.
I can roll it twice now befor it goes back to the waist and if I hoop to the right (I feel more confortable to the left normaly) I can hoop some more on the chest ;) I guess my body has to get used to the movement first.

It must just be hard to do! I specifically searched chest hooping and bust because I was curious if anyone was having the same problem as me. And I have a small chest.
Guess we all just need to keep practicing!
Good Luck Everyone!

I commented on this thread in October of 2010....I can chest hoop now without problems. It just took a lot of practice.
As for tips...
its all about pushing with your chest and your back. Back and forth but ALSO that shoulder shrug.
I think it was in Safire's chest hooping video where she mentions the shoulder shrug and that really helped me :)

I think this is just a matter of practice! I'm a size 30G/H (UK) and I can chest hoop without problems (and I can even shimmy up the hoop without arms).  Get professionally fitted, wear a good sports bra and practice, practice, practice :)

 

(BTW: This video really helped me to understand the shoulder movement)
