Bax Hoops to DangerMouse and Jemini “The Only One”

(2007) Jemini is a BAD ASS. So is Danger, but y’all already knew that. The song is “The Only One” off “Ghetto Pop Life…” The whole album kicks.

This video is one of the things that made me become a hooper. I still rotate this song in my practices because it get’s me so pumped up.

Ann – Summer Practice with Master Stevie Wonder

Here Ann goes again. This video is inspiring me to practice expressing more planes (and even the lack of a plane) in a shorter sequence of time. I’d swear Ann took Brecken’s workshop at Hoop Convergence on plane bridging as she’s definitely got it goin on.

Notice that she’s not rigorously aiming her performance toward the camera. If there were an audience around her, she would have aimed at almost everyone at some point. That’s easy enough to do by focusing toward one direction then the next sequentially but what I’m seeing evolve is style of moving that often aims in all directions. It gives a very different feel than the traditional sense of having a strict front and back.

For clarifications sake, everything I’m suggesting here applies predominantly to off body or angle hooping. It’s a little harder to fit on-body hooping into this planar model.
