I'm glad you rescued your LED hoop; those things are precious to their owners. I think people are so used to the toy store/kiddie hoops that they don't take into account the time, effort and money that goes into a custom hoop. They think it's just a toy, so they can play rough with it.

I have a couple of hoops with mirror tape on them that I'd prefer to keep in decent condition, but I've decided that getting people to hoop is more important to me, so I've reconciled myself to the idea that those hoops are going to get beat up. I wish that weren't the case, but I'd rather have a dinged up hoop and a new hooper than a pristine hoop and a turned-off nonhooper.

If I had an LED hoop, though, you better believe I'd be guarding it closely!
