I haven't begun fire hooping yet - just the obsessive research that precedes. I know moves are limited while spinning fire but does anyone have advice on specific moves that should be avoided…

I've been doing a lot of research to prepare to start fire hooping and one thing Ive noticed is the use of safety words for the performer. Ive seen a lot of posts saying to use the term "you're on…

So I got my Helix the other day and spent a few hours making a guide for the modes/patterns since I haven't been able to find one online. It's nowhere near perfect but it's a start. I used the…

Craig (Proton Labs) replied to the discussion 'HELIX HELP!! Pushing buttons while spinning.'"Just to confirm what a few others have already said, we typically cover the buttons with a clear tape on our hoops and recommend the same. The design of the Helix was to allow the buttons to be covered to seal out dust or moisture if needed…"
"My helix does the same thing. Regular scotch tape takes care of it."
Taiti replied to the discussion 'HELIX HELP!! Pushing buttons while spinning.'"Thanks for the replies! I'm gonna put some tape on there asap. Of course as soon as I posted this I had a sesh with no accidental button pushes, ha. "

"the buttons already sit pretty flush with the tubing. i don't know what it is about them that is so easy to press when the hoop is in motion."
Susan replied to the discussion 'HELIX HELP!! Pushing buttons while spinning.'"Covering the buttons with clear packing tape should help a bit. I did this with mine and it's been better. "
Carly Roseanne replied to the discussion 'HELIX HELP!! Pushing buttons while spinning.'"I personally don't have a helix but I heard you can sand the button down so you don't bump it :-) "

Taiti posted a discussionHELIX HELP!! Pushing buttons while spinning.
I've had my Helix for a few months now. I love it besides the fact that I keep pushing the buttons while I'm hooping, causing it to turn off or change patterns. I've considered trying to cover them somehow to prevent this - maybe with a piece of thick paper and some tape - but have yet to try it. Has anyone tried anything similar or had any success preventing this? It's so frustrating :( See More
Taiti replied to the discussion 'Glow in the dark hoop help'"I havent tried it and don't know anyone that has one but I'm so curious. I read that review too - did you check out any videos? That thing is crazy!!! My first thought was bulletproof....good because I deflect so many bullets with my hoop,…"

"Well.. scissor switches are possible with a fire hoop I do them sometimes but I "cheat" by floating the hoop down with my hand and "placing" it between my legs instead of just knee hooping and then lifting one…"
