[@SarahMJordan]

Thanks Tomie, good luck!

Great, very thorough

[@DNkiduniya]

Your vedio is best. But Last your performance is so good. I like it

[@SarahMJordan]

thank you!

[@Padmaja5]

God bless you dear

[@triningpuyat7773]

Wow😍😍😍

[@TheBlackIris]

Thank you sooo much!! When browsing around, I was soo discouraged at even getting my own hoops, they can be so expensive! My eldest daughter, 5 years old, was sooo enthralled with your video! Shes never sat so still before! She wants to learn hooping as much as I do as a fun pass time outdoors, so knowing how to do this is so wonderful! Thank youuuu!!!

[@SarahMJordan]

Thanks, have a great day :)

[@TammyJewelry]

Awesome video ,, very detailed

[@SarahMJordan]

Thank you Tammy! sarahjart.com

[@tatted_gypsy5059]

I love your silent humor through out your video! (: "put it on like a condom" 😂😂

[@SarahMJordan]

He he thank you. Good to see someone with a great sense of humor. I got a lot of hate for this video, can you believe it?

[@souldivinevibes]

[@SarahMJordan]

Ha ha, glad you thought that was funny :)

[@digitalbreakthroughs]

Excellent instruction on making hula hoops. Thank you!

[@SarahMJordan]

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed my video. Have a great day :)

[@Padmaja5]

Wonderful

[@hoopsforhumanity163]

How important are the rubber O rings? What is their purpose? I've seen people make figure 8 hoops without them and they seem to work the same. Why do you suggest using them? Great video!

[@jeremyripton]

Thank you very much for the twistable hula hoop....it's exactly what I've been looking for. I don't hula but your advice might just help get my business going. I had to find a way of supporting fabric with as little structure as possible....and your clever advice is exactly what I needed. If this goes global I have you to thank in part. If it doesn't...well, thanks anyway. X

[@SarahMJordan]

My pleasure. Let me know how it works out for you :)

[@SarahMJordan]

You're welcome! Enjoy :)

[@elyshagagne6332]

[@souldivinevibes]

@@SarahMJordan thanks I will check it out!! Do you have a recommend for where else to find this tubings? The links are sold out on Amazon. I went to home depot but I'm not sure if was the same exact kind. And also the connectors. Looking to make 1.5 lb hoops

[@SarahMJordan]

@@souldivinevibes Hi there, yes you can buy this tubing at home depot...make sure it is 125 PSI or 150 PSI for heavier hoops or 100 PSI for lighter hoops. They have the connectors and supplies there too. Happy hooping!

[@souldivinevibes]

@@SarahMJordan ok. I saw a tubing but I think it was just plain pvc pipe because it looked more firmer than what you used. I couldn't find the connectors and no one at the store was much help lol. Thank you for further clarity!

[@SarahMJordan]

Hello, I saw your comment on TPT, please email me at hoopingbysarah @ gmail . com (no spaces) and I will get you your video ASAP

[@shirleyrobleszapien8763]

Excellent tutorial! What size pipe did you make the hoop you are dancing with at the end of the video?

[@leilaneum7062]

great explanation and you´re also very funny! kisses from brazil

[@SarahMJordan]

Muah! Thank you so much.

[@kimberlyscaliatine1120]

Great video! I guess the "new" way is to use rivets and push buttons. Do sellers still make hoops with this method? Also wondering about grip on this hoop. You didn't use grip tape (except near connectors). Is vinyl sufficient for gripping? Thanks

[@SarahMJordan]

Hey thanks for watching. I haven't bought or made any hoops in several years so I'm not sure about other sellers. Vinyl tape sticks to skin so yes.

[@Maeshia]

Cool.

[@raddecals3472]

fyi all you need to do is pre measure the hoop at your belly button before making the first cut. and another fyi, all you need to do is drop the ends of the hoop in some hot water for 20 seconds. this will make the plastic more forgiving to add the connector.

[@SarahMJordan]

Thanks, have a great day :)

[@CVamp3002]

Are you able to find all of these supplies at a local Home Depot or Lowe's? Thanks! And great video :)

[@SarahMJordan]

Yes, if you can't find it there you can definitely find it on amazon.com

[@NathAston]

Very nice! I just did a journey through Europe which was incredible! I put videos on my youtube but a camera just can't capture the moment!

[@IndecisivegurrlAlex]

At the end of the. Idea, what is the hula hoop you were using there made of? Was it made of 3/4 inch poly piping or pex?

[@SarahMJordan]

It's normal poly tubing.

[@rhaven50]

awesome, thanks

[@SarahMJordan]

Thanks, have a great day :)

[@marissaisabelledufour5869]

Thanks a lot! Nice video!

[@BicycleGrrl]

What thickness is recommended for a 3/4" ID O-Ring?

[@samanthaesquivel4226]

Where would I get the tubing? And the PVC cutters?

[@rosanella8]

Fabulous! What a great idea! Thank you :-)

[@MegaDarkbeauty]

wow you are amazing at making the hoops :)

[@SarahMJordan]

Awww thanks

[@MegaDarkbeauty]

i need to make one but don`t fancy buying lots of the hoop to make just one lol x

[@SarahMJordan]

eliana wylie Yeah can get small rolls of 25 feet. That will make you like 3 hoops. :)

[@richlaue]

A hint for those that might not have a hair dryer, then use a small pot with warm water and dip the end in.

[@runemesa]

Where do you find connectors that are smooth in the middle? I've gone to Lowe's and Home Depot, and each of those places' 3/4" connectors have little raised fins in the middle of them, that I can't see not getting in the way when it comes to joining the two ends of the tubing.

[@SarahMJordan]

Amazon.com 😀

[@tatted_gypsy5059]

Also! Where did you get your shirt!! Love it!!

[@SarahMJordan]

Thanks girl! Here's the link to a similar shirt: amzn.to/2AHEg7E Hoop Pretty made my giraffe shirt but they are no longer in business.

[@mariameyer1302]

Hello! Instead of the blowdrier can we use boiling water? Thanks

[@SarahMJordan]

Hello Maria, you can use boiling water at your own risk because it may release harmful plastic vapors.

[@mariameyer1302]

Also whats 3/4 inches mean in centimeters? I was converting 3inch to cm and it gave me 7 cm. Is that the diameter of the tube? Here we mesure the outside diameter of the tube...

[@rowekai]

Cool video and music. Do you know how to make a fire hoop?

[@SarahMJordan]

Circo Hoop thank you. My husband created the music for the videos. I don't know how to make a fire hoop. Fire and me do not get along :-)

[@ZoemeansLife524]

HELP!!! I'm trying to make my own hula hoops but the first two hoops I have made have been warped! In the coil the tubing comes in I let it expand for a couple of days then cut it off. While its in the coil its a perfect circle but once I put the connector in it gets warped. also how do you make sure the end with the connectors doesn't stay straight and make the hoop look weird. Help Please! Thank you!

[@CVamp3002]

Wow I just now noticed you listed where you can buy it xD but thanks! hahaa

[@zenbasta]

Hi, do you know the exact size and thickness of NAtive American Hoops?

[@Meee9541]

Where did you get that shirt? It's the cutest thing ever!

[@SarahMJordan]

Kara Parsons Thanks! It's from Hooppretty...they are no longer around sadly.

[@raddecals3472]

+Kara Parsons i can definitely make one for you!

[@megmon7244]

what's the best way to make them weighted?

[@SarahMJordan]

Buy heavier tubing.

[@brooksrimes]

I bought 3/4" tubing and a 3/4" connector from Home Depot, but it keeps coming apart. The fit doesn't seem anywhere as tight as shown in the video. Any suggestions appreciated.

[@saelem]

Was it plastic or pvc tubing?

[@nickolelevine3091]

can u just paint the hoop if u would like or does it have to be specificly tape

[@DeathSlayerKid]

+Nickole Levine paint would wear off, you could spray it and use fixative, it would still wear off but it would last longer. Although with tape you can make it just as colourful and it adds security to the structure.

[@sthalon1]

My connectors re to smll. Should they be the same size as the tubing or larger.

[@SarahMJordan]

If they are too small, use a hot glue gun and glue the hoop together with the connector inside. The glue will fill the space. I've done this before and it worked perfectly.

[@sthalon1]

Thank you for the suggestion Sarah.

[@TheLegendOfKyler]

D: oh no! I bought a coiled hoop last year and i kept it coiled up! I didn't know it could get ruined that way :'(

[@mschanandalrbong]

Why don't you recommend PEX? Any specific reason?

[@SarahMJordan]

Pex is very hard and the connectors do not fit in pex tubing.

[@MWingler]

Sarah M. Jordan I'm confused. In the listed materials it doesn't say to use PEX tubing but you recommend it later for beginners but then say the connectors won't fit? Am I misinterpreting?

[@SarahMJordan]

Correct, use hdpe instead.

[@MWingler]

Sarah M. Jordan Thanks for clarifying:-)

[@xgabyo]

"And all drunk people" lol

[@LDRDebari]

my 1st mistake..i used the wide duck tape to make my first hoop! :(

[@SarahMJordan]

selenia cuesta Oh no! Hope this tip works out for you!

[@LDRDebari]

Thanks! I'm going to buy other tape!

[@whitefox8868]

size matters with a wink ;)

[@SarahMJordan]

:)

[@estherlam4875]

Do you actually sell one?

[@SarahMJordan]

I used to sell hula hoops years ago. I recommend Hoop Mamas on Etsy.

[@estherlam4875]

Oh that’s awesome! I’ll check. Thanks!

[@SarahMJordan]

He he :)

[@SarahMJordan]

Without o rings there is a gap.

[@hoopsforhumanity163]

How does that affect the flexiness though? I tried making one without the ring and it seemed to work the same, but if the o ring would make it better, then I want to try. Just wanted to know the explanation. :)

[@SarahMJordan]

Angela Castrigno They are still flexible :) Just no gap when folding the hoop.

[@hassansarmadi1486]

m.jordan

[@hedgehogcity]

Haha the way u explain stuff sexually 😂😂😂

[@user-zn1qm9gq8d]

My tubing is not firm as yours and is kind of dangly :/

[@hearnjack]

I am glad I pre-watch videos before I let my young daughter sees them. A condom really ?

[@SarahMJordan]

I have no idea what you are talking about.

[@jazylou]

Great thanks so much :D easy to follow instructions and wonderful hoops moves at the end of this tutorial.

[@SarahMJordan]

Thanks Jasmyn! Glad you liked it
