Further Notes[]
A wiki visitor (perhaps Burbrujo?) notes: "I have begun to wrap each section of my Travel Hoop while unassembled and attach each end with a zip (wire) tie. This way you do not have to re-wrap it everytime you reassemble it. (Note: Each wrap is approx one inch apart from the other)."
