BENEFITS OF LED HULA HOOPS

Due to their circular form and multiple pixels of light, LED hula hoops are excellent tools for creating light show performances. They’re light-weight compared to other flow toys, like LED poi, and are more familiar to use as many people have tried a hula hoop as a child. The UltraHoop Shuffle does not have any tiny buttons, switches or complex menus, it only has a ON or OFF state for the LEDs, which automatically cycle through colors modes and strobe patterns, making it especially simple to control.

Newcomers to Flow Arts should find the UltraHoop Shuffle easy to grasp, although certain moves may require a basic familiarity with hula hooping. Still, beginners can achieve attractive light trails with the LED hula hoop right out of the box. Mastering those advanced hooping techniques, however, will take a lot longer, and experts will know how to augment their Flow by using multiple, different sized hoops to perform more complex spins.

Although using the UltraHoop as a beginner can be easy to get started due to basic familiarity with Hula Hoops, the skill ceiling can still be quite high if you learn advanced technical on body and off body hooping tricks. You could say this particular glow hoop is easy to pick up and play, but difficult to master, and if you’re pursuing mastery, you’ll want to consider some upgrades. By altering certain aspects of the UltraHoop Shuffle LED hula hoop, such as its size, the material it’s made from, and by adding a counter weight, you can fine tune your hoop(s) to meet your performance needs.

THE BEST LED HULA HOOP UPGRADES

UltraHoops are available in lots of different sizes, materials, and finishes, giving you plenty of options to alter them for your specific performance needs. Choosing the right size, material, and finish for your LED hula hoops can enhance your ability to perform complex moves. The result is a customized Flow Art Prop that fits perfectly with Hoopers style and body type.

The standard UltraHoop Shuffle package from UltraPoi comes with 1x UltraHoop LED Shuffle Hula Hoop (36”, ⅝ HDPE, bare finish), 1x rechargeable battery, and 1x battery charger. This set is great for beginners who don’t need much to get started, but if you’re a more advanced hooper, you should consider the following upgrades.

UPGRADE 1: HOOP SIZE

The sizes of our UltraHoops range from 36” all the way down to 18” and include every number in between. The smaller hoops (18”-23”) are considered “mini”.

Here's a tip on choosing size, big hoops are easier to hoop with since they can spin more slowly around your body. And the opposite is true for smaller hoops since they need to be spun faster to keep them going. As a hooper advances in skill they will get more comfortable with smaller hoop sizes. Recommended size ranges: 36”-33” Beginner Sizes, 34”-31” Intermediate Sizes, 31”-26” Advanced Sizes.

There may be one size that appeals to you most for on body waist hooping type tricks, and a different size that you like for off body or juggling techniques. Depending on how you like to perform and how much space you have to work with you can decide what size hoop will fit you best. Once you’ve chosen the size for your UltraHoop for a specific style you can consider other creative options. For example, an advanced hooper might want to spin a particular hoop size around their waist and utilize a pair of mini hoops in their hands or around their arms. Get creative!

UPGRADE 2: HOOP MATERIAL

For the material of your UltraHoop, you can choose between high density polyethylene (HDPE) and polypropylene (PolyPro) plastic. HDPE flow hoops are more durable and rigid, whereas PolyPro hoops are more flexible and brittle. Some people prefer one material over the other, but beginners likely won’t notice much of a difference between using HDPE and PolyPro hoops. We recommend HDPE for beginners and PolyPro for advanced users. Also note that PolyPro can become brittle and crack in very cold temperatures so hoopers in cold climates should take note.

In addition to choosing the type of material, you can also choose the thickness of your UltraHoop to fit your style or hand size. We will list some of the pros and cons that come along with choosing thickness. The 5/8“ tubing may be smaller, lighter and more comfortable in your hand but it comes with a AAA size battery with less power capacity. The 3/4“ tubing is larger, heavier but comes with a AA size battery with twice the life span. One of our favorite sizes is the 11/16“ since it's in between the previous two sizes and is actually the most durable due to a thicker interior wall. Here are the sizes for both materials:

  • 5/8 HDPE
  • 3/4 HDPE
  • 5/8 PolyPro
  • 11/16 PolyPro
  • 3/4 PolyPro

UPGRADE 3: HOOP FINISH

Besides the standard bare finish of the UltraHoop, UltraPoi offers hoops with sanded finishes and 3m grip tape. Each finish differs in how easy they are to grip. The bare finish provides a neutral grip for various performance needs, while the sanded finish is more sleek, allowing it to easily slide through your hands. The 3m grip tape provides the firmest grip for precise spins, and flips. Your choice of finish won’t necessarily prevent you from achieving any common spins, but they can enhance your ability to perform specific moves. So, think about what moves you like to perform most and choose your hoop’s finish accordingly.

UPGRADE 4: BATTERIES AND COUNTER WEIGHT

In the “Hoop Extras” tab beneath the product title, you’ll find both battery and counter weight upgrades for your LED hula hoop.

Each UltraHoop requires a 1x custom rechargeable 3.7 volt Li-ion type battery to power the electronics. This is a specific type of battery and normal energizer or duracell type batteries will not work. Please only use the batteries we sell on our site for your UltraHoop and also note that you should only insert 1 battery at time.

You can upgrade to multiple batteries which is great so you will always have a charged battery backup so you can continue hooping uninterrupted. Conveniently, the charger for said batteries is included with every UltraHoop set, so if even if you want to buy more rechargeable batteries separately, you’ll already have a charger for them.

Although the UltraHoop is very well balanced, you can additionally add a counter weight to your order which will be installed internally opposite the battery for more exact hoop balance. If you plan on doing any type of balancing tricks or off body type stalls, we recommend adding a counter weight to your UltraHoop.

In the Hoop Extras section you can choose to add a Counter Weight, 2x Batteries, 2x Batteries & Counter Weight or 3x Extra Batteries. We recommend getting the 2x Batteries & Counter Weight so that you will have great balance and plenty of power to keep hooping all night long.

HOW TO USE THE ULTRAHOOP SHUFFLE

So much fun!

My husband bought this hoop for me for my birthday, absolutely 10/10 recommend to anyone looking to buy this! We went with the counter weight, grip tape, & extra batteries which was a super plus. Plenty of charge to enjoy for hours on end.

Awesome hoop

Love this lightweight hoop! I’m just beginning & it’s perfect. Love the random patterns it shuffles through. Easy to use, and transport. Was a hit at Electric Forest!

Too light

Why am I the only one that thinks this? I’m a beginner to hooping but consider myself good at just the standard waist hula hooping, I have such a hard time keeping this hoop up. It’s too light and it makes tricks harder as a result.

I do love the LED lights and think the shuffle is fine. A remote one would be cool but the lights shuffling is not bad. I feel like if I had a remote for it, it would be difficult to change the lights while hopping anyway. I suppose people could just pick one light for their routine but I like how it just shuffles.
