Troubleshooting

Hoop keeps falling down

Ensure you are starting with a good initial push. Experiment with a slightly wider stance and a forward-backward or side-to-side hip motion rather than a circular one. Practice in front of a mirror to observe your technique.

Difficulty maintaining rotation

Start with a slower spin and focus on consistent, controlled movements. Ensure the hoop is centered around your waist. It may take several practice sessions to build muscle memory.

Hoop feels too light or too heavy

The HOOP24 is a standard-weight hoop. If it feels too light, it might require faster movements. If it feels too heavy, ensure you are not using excessive force. Different hoop sizes and weights are available for varied preferences.
