Hoop Sizes available

• • 5/8 hoops: 33.5 in. OD to 24.5 in. OD

 

• • 3/4 hoops: 38.5 in. OD to 24.5 in. OD

*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.

5/8″ hoops are light, bouncy, and fun, but it’s good to think about what kind of hooping style you’d like to use with the hoop when choosing both the thickness and material of the tubing. 3/4″ hoops are made with thicker tubing that is slightly heavier, but also sturdier, and considerably less flexible than 5/8″ hoop tubing. If you like to hoop with a faster or more aggressive hooping style, the thicker 3/4″ tubing may be the best option to keep up with faster paced style.

Fast breaks and reversals in 5/8 can cause the shape of the hoop to become warped, or the tubing can become over extended and kink. If also in polypro, the tubing is likely to crack from the stress.

Kinked and cracked tubing is not covered by the warranty, so take extra care when selecting your hoop tubing options.

3/4″ HDPE and 5/8″ Lilac Polypro are temporarily out of stock.

Our standard LED hoops are typically made with 3/4" HDPE tubing, which offers excellent durability and flexibility. At the moment, 3/4" HDPE is temporarily out of stock, but 3/4" Polypro is still available in all colors. If you're looking for HDPE, our 5/8" HDPE option is still available and shipping as usual.

Polypro is lighter and stiffer than HDPE, offering a snappier feel and quicker response. While its rigid structure gives it a different kind of feedback during flow, polypro is more prone to cracking if bent too far, used for more fast-paced or aggressive hooping style, or if the tubing swiftly impacts a hard surface. This is especially true in colder temperatures, particularly with LED hoops due to the added weight of electronic components.

That said, many hoopers still enjoy polypro LED hoops for their crisp responsiveness and lightweight handling. Our current polypro options include clear and translucent colors: Lilac (purple), Blush (pink), Dew (green), and Aqua (blue).

Will 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.

The PixelHoop 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. Sanding and hoop wax is clear and doesn’t block the signal from the remote control. It’s best not to use regular grip tape with the PixelHoop, as grip tape (whether in black or white) can block the signal or shorten the signal distance from the remote control to the hoop. Please make sure you want to keep the hoop before sanding the tubing.
