A hoop to hoop with, I really wanted to have it in the old days. It was a whole craze, and at school all the girls were hoopping, with the prettiest hoops.. If you didn't have a hoop, you didn't belong (almost) anymore! Luckily I was finally allowed to buy one too, so together with my mother went to the mall. I got to pick one, that was pretty hard to pick.! Eventually I chose a beautiful pink with lots of cheerful glitter colors. I was super happy, I remember that very well. And the shopkeeper, too, because he sold them like hot sandwiches.


Make your own hoola hope!

Did you know that you can easily make a hoop yourself? In the old days, they simply made a hoop from a long piece of PVC pipe. You can buy that cheaply in the DIY business. The hoop should have a cross section of 1 meter, so the pipe should be 3.2 meters long. You might also be able to have it cut to size in the store? They roll it up for you so you can easily take it with you.

I used to have such pink with those glitters. I wasn't as good at it as my sister. It was super good at it, around the waist, neck. It was all the rage, indeed.
Ik heb ook gehoepeld. Ik had een zware, een heel goede ! De meisjes die zo'n lichte hadden, konden hem niet op houden.
Vroeger veel ja.
Ik heb lang geprobeerd het te doen, maar het was niet mogelijk om te leren
