"No, mainly because I haven't used up that big roll of 3/4 yet. The hoop I made tonight is about 36" 1/2 and think any smaller than that and maybe I should give 1/2 125 psi a whirl but definitely can't deal with something too bouncy.…"

"The "take a bow" move youre referring to was a main factor in my want to construct a new hoop. Im always hitting myself in the legs! I like your method of decreasing the diameter an inch at a time, so i will give that a try and let you…"

"I'd try 35-36" if I were you. I have a 1/2" hoop that size and I love it. Not sure if I'd want something smaller right now."

"I'm still in my first year of hooping and started out making a 43" (3/4" 160psi) hoop then I jumped to a 41" hoop. From there, too much of a size decrease was too much of a jolt. So I kept making smaller hoops decreasing no more…"

What size should my new hoop be?

Hello! I'm making a new hoop for myself for the first time and was wondering how big or small it should be. My current hoop has 3/4 tubing and I'm looking for something smaller that moves a little quicker. I bought 1/2 tubing and need to know if I should make the diameter of my new hoop smaller. I am 5'4" and my current book is 37" in diameter. So my question is, do I make my new hoop 37" as well or go smaller? Thanks for any feedback! Happy hooping to all:D

"Do it! I have the bikila style and they're amazing. But like many others have said, it would be in your best interest to try some on first to find the right size."
