I want to learn to hoop.  I'm 57 years old and 5"10" tall.  I am looking at the basic hoop, light weight and 42" size.  Do you think this would be a good selection for me? 

Many beginners prefer a hoop that hits about 2 inches above the belly button. A 42 inch would probably be a good choice.  Since you are beginning you may consider a candy cane hoop instead, it is $5.00 more and has a grip tape layer that helps keep the hoop from slipping.
