You might also be able to make a large diameter hoop with polyethylene pipe that is used for natural gas lines and drinking water, too. (This type of pipe is made in a continuous length, rather than 10' lengths.) The pipe is small diameter (I think an inch or so). I've used it for a 6-foot hoop to support an oversized "hoop-skirt". I'm not certain if will work for a 14-foot diameter hoop, though. That is, I'm not sure if it will stay rigid enough to support the hoop shape.
