when i was learning the behind the back elbow pass, i found that the biggest problem was the hoop hitting my butt when i tried to switch elbows.  you kind of have to put your hips a little forward to tuck your butt in and keep it out of the path of the hoop.

That makes sense.  Before I attempted this trick someone mentioned this in a tutorial and make a conscious effort to keep my butt out of the way as well. :)  It's funny how sometimes it's something as simple as that that prevents one from executing a trick.

yeah, i understand that.  i have trouble with timing sometimes.  like with my one legged hooping, i can almost neverrrrr get my leg back into the hoop.  i've had to find ways to work around it while still being fluid.  i've been able to hoop on one leg since right after i started hooping, i just can't get the timing right for getting it back in.  :p  i've realized that probably the best thing for my expansion has been my ability to take it easy and not get frustrated when i can't get the hang of something immediately.  so take it easy, smile and laugh, and enjoy what you're doing with your hoop and before you know it, your flow will open up and new things will just start happening.  :)
