    You are as much of a good sport for showing your fails to the world as you are persistent! I bet you can do all kinds of cool things by now and everyone watching this video knows you deserve it! It makes me a little sad that I never recorded my first steps with poi, although those fails are pretty monotonous: they either hit you square on the nose or in the groin.
    Time for you to shine! :-D

    BEST VIDEO I have seen in a long time
    Love it all the breaking glass, the letting strangers eat shit, locations, the little girl and the high five of success! Love the stick-to-itiveness that shows it not easy feet!
    On a side note, where did you get your cyr wheel?

    Good for you. I started inline skating at sixty and I know only too well the number of times I failed including dislocating a shoulder. However, I'm now quite good. It's really productive that you post struggles because it shows that achieving skills takes time and pain.

    As time progressed you could tell she was getting better because when she would fall she would fall more gracefully. I know that sounds odd but she was really starting to become one with the wheel. Then at the end and she did multiple spins it was like WOW! I was really happy for her. 🤩

    I was filled with enthusiasm to make my own failures in hooping after watching your video, thank you for posting what most would not want others to see. I have so many questions to ask like what are you training for? How did you get into the Cyr? What or where was the mass of people from at 1:34 in the video? What advice would you give yourself for beginning the Cyr? Thank you again for the video. Cheers!

    • @Hooplahoma

      You will want a wheel that is 3-8 inches taller than you, depending on how long your arms are. If you have a longer reach you will want a bigger wheel. Search "Cyr wheel for sale" to find some options, mine is from Anton on Etsy.
