What Aerial Hoop size do I need?

Hoop size is again a personal preference, depending on the tricks you enjoy practicing. The most popular sizes used are 90, 95 and 100 cm. A smaller hoop can be easier for beginners and children to maneuver, and a larger hoop is great for tricks that require more headroom.

How to find out your hoop size?

It´s super easy.

1. Sit straight on a chair and measure the distance from the seat to the top of your head. Then add 10 cm. Round up to nearest hoop size interval and that is your hoop size.

Hoops are available in 5 cm increments. Say you measured and got 83 + 10 = 93. You round up to 95 and that is your hoop size.

2. Measure the length of your feet. Lean forward to form a right angle and measure the distance from the floor to your waist. The number is the size of your hoop. Again, you have to round up to the nearest available hoop size.

This mostly means that for most children, 90 cm Aerial Hoops are a common choice. While if you are taller and have long legs, 100 cm can be a good fit.

Exceptions apply and you can always write us if you believe we can custom create 85 cm or 110 cm size hoops for you. We have delivered many custom orders and would be glad to help your aerial practice be perfect.
