Poi + Hoop = poi-style hooping Poop 
Fellow Bristolian and all round encyclopedia of miscellaneous manipulations Mr Bags sent us though his latest explorations with hoops.
Some idea’s for hoopers that are well worth a look.
Edited with Cinelerra on Ubuntu – open source rules! (Most of MoM are on Ubuntu).

Video made by Luminous Fractal (how cool is that. He should have been on stage!!)

Good stuff all around, some great manipulators on stage in this teaser clip from the 2010 Madskillz Gala show.

Helloooooooo Masha Terentieva from Canada! Rockin’ good hoop routine with all the classic tricks (and a few surprising ones).
Her lyra (aerial hoop) act is worth checking out as well…

This is mad new style hooping, of yes, awesome. Not quite sure of the name of the girl yet, apart from Jane, been trying to find out if she was supposed to be at the Sydney Juggling Convention.
Anyway, she does mad awesome hooping on a pole, so that you get the low space underneath you, she uses that to great effect, makes the pole do hoop, does pancakes and beautiful juggling transitions and owns some of the old style Bob Branson hoop rolling… Epic, watch it.
