Hoop (rhythmic gymnastics)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hoop (Rhythmic Gymnastics) may be made of plastic or wood, provided that it retains its shape during the routine. The interior diameter is from 80 to 90 cm, and the hoop must weigh a minimum of 300g. The hoop may be of a natural colour or be partially of fully covered by one or several colours, and it may be covered with adhesive tape (not fluorescent) either of the same or different colour as the hoop.
Fundamental requirements of a hoop routine include rotation around the hand or body and rolling. Swings, circles, throws, passes through and over the hoop.
