FutureHoop Designer
$449.00
The original FutureHoop Pro is a solid choice for most flow artists who want a beautiful, remote-controlled smart hoop with no configuration required. Designer is for hoopers who want the total control that comes with a programmable smart hoop.
Designer lets you upload custom patterns and unlock new features as we release them. You can plug it into any Mac/Windows/Linux computer with a USB port and it will show up like a flash drive so you can drag and drop patterns and updates onto it.

Tubing Options
We recommend HDPE tubing as the default option for LED hoops. Since LED hoops have batteries and weighted internals, the lightness of polypro is not as noticeable from an HDPE LED hoop made in the same size.
HDPE tubing is naturally a more flexible material and absorbs impacts well. Polypro tubing is stiffer, giving it a different kind of feedback during hoop play. However, polypro tubing is more brittle in comparison, and prone to cracking on impacts or when extremely flexed. The added weight of LEDs, batteries, weighted internals only increases the chance of the tubing cracking. Polypro is extra susceptible to cracking in cold temperatures.
Does the tubing color affect the lights?
When the hoop is in mid to high speed motion the tubing color difference is almost indistinguishable. When the hoop is moving slower 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.
5/8″ Lilac Polypro is temporarily out of stock.

Hoop Grip
The FutureHoop comes with bare tubing, but can be lightly sanded or have a layer of hoop wax added along the inner ring of the hoop for extra grip.
Included with your hoop is a MoodHoops Hoop Wax Heart, which offers a lightweight, removable and transparent alternative to sanding or taping your hoop. Extra hoop wax can be reapplied to keep up the grip. To use, rub vigorously along the inner ring of your hoop to create a textured surface.
What about grip tape? The FutureHoop uses sensors to be able to pick up the button press signals from the remote controls. It’s best not to use regular grip tape with this hoop, as the grip tape (whether in black or white) blocks the signal and shortens the signal distance.
Sanding and hoop wax is clear, doesn’t transfer to your clothes or skin, and is the best option for hoop grip that does not interrupt the remote control signal. Please make sure you want to keep the hoop before sanding the tubing.
Battery & Hoop Spec Comparison
It’s best to keep your batteries charged in between hooping sessions so you can pick up and play whenever you want. If you know you won't be using your hoop for many months it's ok to store at half charge. Don't leave lithium-ion batteries at near-zero charge for extended periods, and avoid storing them in hot places like a car or direct sunlight. Regardless of care, li-ion batteries will lose some capacity over time. It’s best to keep your battery in good shape to extend the glow time it can give back to you.
The run-times listed below depend heavily on brightness level, pattern selection, and hoop size.
Power Saving Tips
- Use the remote control to turn down the brightness.
- FutureHoop patterns that use more black space than color are powering fewer LEDs at once, which extends battery run-time. Simple, minimal patterns (like spirals and chasers) can last for many hours on a single charge.

Hoop Weights
*Hoop sizes are measured by the Outer Diameter (OD). This measurement is taken across the widest part of the hoop, including the width of the tubing.
Size |
Removable Battery |
Removable Battery |
Non-Removable Battery |
|---|---|---|---|
For HD hoops, add approx. 0.5 oz to the weight of the hoop.
For polypro hoops, subtract approx. 0.2 to 0.4 oz from the weight of the hoop.
