Hooptacular!

jakob, you should take a video of the trick that you invented today! i think that it's really neat!

that's cool! you're talented, girl! :-)

The isolation move is way cool. I must learn that move so I can be cool too.

Practise makes perfect, and when you look at her graceful, obviously toned body you can see that she spends plenty of time working out this way. Really fun to watch.

i used to be able to hoop when i was a kid... not anymore! She's great!

Wow Kat!
You should compete.
Maybe I will challenge you over the spring?

Oh yeah, well I can do that thing where you roll the hoop on the ground and it comes back to you. Been doing it since like elementary school.

I can never get the hoop to stay up, I always end up gyrating my hips like a complete idiot.

This girl has MAD skills.

wow, thanks everyone! i'm glad to hear that you think (hula) hooping is rad! everyone should try it! if you think that you can't, you're most likely just trying the wrong way: it's a back and forth motion. not a gyration.

pomerac, i will have a competition if you like. something like this: http://www.vimeo.com/clip=47871?
or a different type of competition? whatever you want to do!

wow. that is a finely-honed skill. i hear hooping is a huge subculture now, and that the secret is homemade hoops out of tubing. can't wait to see more. i swear i'm on the verge of heading out to home depot tomorrow.

that is AMAZING. i am so jealous of her hoopability.

dag yo.

so is this the first video in the new "learn with lodwick" series.

you totally gotta book the t-shirt folding girl for the next one.

or maybe the pen flippin guys at Haduri

never knew they were cool-
hula hoops that is.

OH WOW!!! What a delightful breakdown for isolation! The only way I've ever ben able to do it is with one hand, which is pretty difficult to attain that perfection you so beautifully demonstrated... Nicely done! You have a killer knack for teaching this stuff! I have no idea how to explain it to people, which is frustrating! You should bang out a few more of these, and I'll give the question-askers your links! YOU ROCK!!

The last part makes me feel like my eyes are playing tricks on me.
