“Aerial Hoop” or “Lyra” is a hoop suspended on a rope made of
very strong material (usually steel or aluminum) and can be
hollow or solid inside. Aerial acrobatics on a hoop combines
strength, elegance and flexibility. Aerial hoop strengthens the
whole body, especially the upper and middle parts, improves
balance, range and grace of movement.
Selecting an Aerial Hoop
our measurements are taken from the inner diameter instead of outer, which enables you to have the correct distance you need from your head to the upper bar.
Properly sizing an aerial hoop or Lyra comes down to personal preference, and what you are comfortable with.
A method of selecting an aerial hoop is to sit in a chair, measure from the seat of the chair to the top of the head, and add 2 inches.
The number of points your aerial hoop has will depend on how you are going to use it, what effect you are after and what you are comfortable with.
The following is a list of just a few things you might want to take into account when choosing your aerial hoop:
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.
Single point hoops tend to rotate a lot more, however they allow for you to rig in smaller spaced areas.
Double point hoops allow you to perform moves that tip forward and back with a smaller amount of lateral movement.
Single point allows the hoop to rotate so additional moves can be performed.

Other than the fast shipping it was easy to install and get ready for classes. It’s very light weight and durable. The parts that came with it are very high quality. I own a gymnastics center that has aerial silks and my kids loved it.

I’m pretty sure this is the Lyra I bought a few years back. I had it in my trunk two days ago and got hit by a semi when he didn’t see traffic slowing down. It must’ve taken some of the impact or something because I lived. The car wrapped around the Lyra and it’s completely unbent and undamaged. If you’re going for durability, this thing went up against a semi and won. I love it.

I got the single point lyra in 33" (though when I measured the inside it is actually 34"). I am mostly happy with everything, the only thing that I didn't like was the metal thickness. It is thicker than the lyras I am used to using and this causes my hands to fatigue much faster. Grips are a littler harder as well and any type of leg hang is more challenging with the thickness. The metal thickness measurement was not in the product description so this was something I didn't know beforehand and it was a surprise. For anyone who doesn't have a thickness preference or maybe wants thicker metal in their hands this will be great! All the equipment that came with the hoop is super good quality too.

Hoop was brand spanking new, no dings or scratches. Came with all the hanging attachments with are also of a high quality. Couldn't be happier with it.
