The Bearclaw Sunhoop brand fire hoop is a high grade hula hoop with small hybrid wicks attached to it on spines. All hoops are 1", high-heat, high density, plastic in 4 pieces with connectors allowing them to be broken down for shipping. A mild heat source and tape may be required for assembly. This intermediate model has 8 evenly spaced wicks on 9" spines.
Our original hoop design has fixed spines that cannot be unintentionally removed. There's no fear of the wicks or the hoop coming off the spines. However, because of overwhelming demand we are now offering models with removable spines. All the same safety once assembled, but the removable spines are built for rapid removal and re-assembly so you can take them off for dipping or storage. Plus you can use the hoop without the spines and put them on later.
Our standard, lightweight hoops ship with aluminum struts to save both weight and cost, but we offer several options for complete customization:
- Aluminum - At one third the weight of steel, aluminum is the lightest and cheapest offering (weight of Sunhoop 8 is just over 2 pounds), but it's also the lowest strength and hardness.
- Titanium - All the strength of stainless steel at half the weight, titanium is the most expensive option, but by far the favorite of those that use it.
- High Carbon Steel - About twice the strength of stainless steel, and slightly higher weight, this affordable option gives absolutely the best strength possible and adds some weight for those who favor a heavier hoop.
We break down each hoop into 4 pieces for shipping. The basic connectors are not intended for regular breakdown and reassembly. An alternative to the basic connectors are our quick-connects [see large image]. These one-button snaps allow you to break down your hoop in seconds, pack your hoop or easily store it in a car.
Connectors are positioned around the hoop for rotational stability. Internationally shipped hoops must be shipped in 3-4 pieces, so 2 basic connectors will be added to any 2 quick connect requests. To receive a hoop with 2 quick connects and no basic connectors, the hoop must be picked up at our facility.

*New* Now our hoops have shorter spines available, and new kevlar wicks. You can order spines in the old 9" length or you can now get 6" spines for a tighter spin and stiffer spines, even in aluminum. The new wicks are miniature versions of our Solaris wicks. The flame size is a little bit smaller than our hybrid wicks, but you can use any fuel you like on them.
