 Works for me! June 9, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I saw a few complaints about adjusting the length of this rope. However, I had no issues pulling the caps off the end of the handles and did so by hand. Then I measured the length I needed - to measure a jump rope correctly, stand on the middle of the rope with both feet. The ends should come up to your armpits. There were two extra crimp bands included, so I just cut off the extra length, used a pair of small pliers to crimp the new band in place, and put the cap back on. I recommend you use a rubber band wrapped around where you think you need the crimp band first, try jumping with it for a few rotations, then put the crimp band on where the rubber band was. Too easy.
Does the job May 23, 2008
I needed to buy a new jump rope after my old leather one broke at the handle. I decided to go with a speed rope because I have a Valeo workout ball that has lasted the last couple years for me. The jump rope is a lot faster than a leather one, and the first couple times i used it my arms took a beating from the plastic rope. Once I got used to it though it greatly improved my cardio workout. I use it outside on my concrete patio and it's shown a little bit of wear at the point of contact with the ground, but for the price, I can deal with it.
 A little unsatisfactory May 23, 2008
It works, but is not an ideal jump rope. It is easily creased when folded, causing small kinks in the rope from being folded while packaged. It is not quite as heavy as it needs to be for the best jumping. I liked that it is adjustable.
Good deal May 20, 2008
There are better jump ropes with leather ropes and ball bearings in the handles but if your useing this as part of a regular exercise routine it's great and so isn't the price.
It's almost perfect April 27, 2008
I bought this product a few weeks ago. It's a bit too long for me, I'm 5'6' so I wrap a little bit of the rope on each side. It makes a loud wooshing sound, which was a bit of a downside for me because I prefer to exercise discreetly in my yard. It also leaves welts on your body wherever it hits. You learn not to make any mistakes lol.
But it's a fine product and almost perfect.
