Hoola Hoop Tape Tips

natasha and her tape Tracey in Shawnee, Oklahoma, wrote in asking for tips on how to tape her hoop. Decorating your own hoop for the first time can be a challenge, so when you're done making your hoop, here's a video trio giving you the inside scoop on how it's done by two women who have it down. Natasha in Dayton, Ohio, delivers some excellent instructions on how she tapes her hoops and why, followed by two videos of Xta in Vancouver, British Columbia, wrapping herself a rainbow hoop while explaining the methods to her madness. So enjoy these visual guides on how to decorate your hoop and you'll be taping like a pro in no time.

Comments

I collected a number of the online resources you list here and put them all together in a site called "How to Make a Heavy Hoop."

I welcome additions and thank all the people who created the content that I used here.

I'd appreciate links to this site in tribe groups, discussion board and hooping blogs to help new hoopers learn how to make their own hoops.

Greetings! How many feet of tape does it take to wrap one hoop?

  Track of the Week

One of our favorite tracks from the new Future Disco Vol. 3 is by Ilija Rudman and it's "Call Me Tonight (Greg Wilson Version). We really get lost while hooping to this one and it gets better with every listen. It's on the Hoop Sounds iPod below and download it and more "Future Disco" for yourself on iTunes by clicking:

Then we're going Sub Swara with "Koli Stance" - the David Starfire Remix - from Sub Swara's Coup d'Yah, Vol. 3 (Remixes). We've uploaded it so listen on the iPod and download it on iTunes by clicking:
