Lightweight Stainless Steel Single Point Lyra

$168.00 USD Regular price $249.99 USD
Description

The Aerial Hoop, also known as Lyra, is a circus apparatus used to perform beautiful movements and shapes in the air.

These Uplift Active hoops are perfect for everyone from beginners to professionals - they are hollow stainless steel. Lightweight hoops can be easier to manipulate; they move with the performer and tend to bruise less.

What is an Aerial Hoop, or Lyra?

The Aerial Hoop, also known as “Lyra”, is a metal apparatus (made of hollow steel) that looks like a suspended hula-hoop. Aerial hoops are usually available in single-point and double-point configurations.

Which is better, a single-point or double-point hoop?

Whether you select a single or double-point hoop depends on how you are going to use your Lyra. Keep in mind:

- Single-point hoops tend to rotate a lot more, but they can be rigged in smaller spaces.
- The rotation of single-point hoops allows for additional moves
- Double-point hoops allow you to perform moves that tip forward and back with a smaller amount of lateral movement.
- Double-point hoops allow less overall movement. They also allow for an extra range of poses to be performed on the top bar. However, due to the method of rigging, they do take up more vertical space

Materials

Product Specifications

- Maximum User Weight/ Working Load Limit: 330lbs/150kg

Size

Available in two grip sizes:

The 24.3mm Grip is the aerial industry standard diameter of tubing. It is perfect for performances, tricks, and drops. Suitable for aerialists who are comfortable with the smaller handgrip.

The 34mm Grip is thicker than standard and provides a more comfortable grip for beginners or those transitioning from pole fitness.

This Aerial Hoop is perfect for performances, tricks, and drops.

Available in these sizes:

31 inch (800mm) diameter
33 inch (850mm) diameter
35 inch (900mm) diameter
37 inch (950mm) diameter
39 inch (1000mm) diameter
41 inch (1050mm) diameter

Measurements are taken from the inner diameter, which allows you to have the correct distance from your head to the upper bar. The millimeter measurement is the most accurate dimension.

What size is best for me?

We recommend measuring to make sure you get the right size hoop, but sizing on the hoops is a little flexible and up to personal preference. Bigger hoops are better for certain tricks and practice styles, and smaller hoops are better for others. Smaller hoops tend to be a little easier to work with, but most aerialists like the hoops to be big enough to sit in. To measure, you can sit in a chair and measure from your bottom to the top of your head and add two inches.

Measuring is important as people carry their height differently. But, as a general guideline, people under 5'0 will choose a 31 inch hoop, 5'1-5'3 may choose a 33 inch hoop, 5'3-5'5 may choose a 35 inch hoop, 5'5-5'7 may choose a 37 inch hoop, and 5'7-5'10 may choose a 39 inch hoop

Installation Instructions

This product must be professionally installed for user safety by an aerial rigger, experienced licensed contractor, or structural engineer.

Safety

Safety Tips for Aerial Fitness:

- Use a mat under your apparatus
- Always practice with a spotter for flips and harder moves
- Learn from a professional. Books, YouTube and videos are a great source, but we highly recommend attending an Aerial Class
- Always check your equipment before each use to make sure damage has not occurred at any time and that the rigging is secure
- We recommend that you tape your hoops for both hygiene issues and safety issues.

Im very excited

Finally its done .. the tape wasnt enough for the hoop .. good that i found extra one with a friend, the first couple of times i used it it was sticky on my hand!! I hope this will disappear soon

Hi Ghadeer,

We're so excited for you and happy that you're able to practice with your new Lyra!
The tape can be sticky at first, but that effect goes away after some use.

Thanks!
