Will color polypro tubing affect the FutureHoop Lights?

Polypro tubing is known for being lighter and stiffer than HDPE, giving it a crisp, snappy feel and faster response time. This responsiveness makes it a favorite among many hoopers, especially for quick, technical flow.

However, the rigid structure of polypro tubing makes it more prone to cracking—particularly during aggressive hooping, sudden impacts with hard surfaces, and especially when used in colder temperatures. These considerations are important to keep in mind with LED hoops, as the added weight of internal components can increase stress on the tubing.

Despite these facts, polypro tubing remains a popular choice for its lightness and agility. We currently offer polypro tubing in clear and translucent color options: Lilac (purple), Blush (pink), Dew (green), and Aqua (blue).

Will the tubing color affect the lights?
In motion—especially at medium to high speeds—differences in tubing color become nearly invisible. When the hoop is moving more slowly, you can see that the tubing is different and may notice a slight tint.

The color difference will be the most notable when the hoop is on an all white setting.
