What I gathered from your video was. 1. Depending on the rope length. We'll have to adjust the technique to adapt to the length. 2. The placement of the hand. Width, height, left- right balance or front / back affects how the rope hits the ground n under the feet. 3. The key is to practice to be consistent or adapt based on rope length. 4. So if I'm a beginner or want to stick to only a certain technique. I can either buy a cheaper rope n practice my technique first before I get my cross rope. Or I can just buy a longer cross rope. I tried today n paid attention to the form of my rope. And where it strikes the ground n how it cross under my feet. Keeping it consistent. It feels so much better. So much easier to keep going without getting tired. I used to think it's the rope problem or it's just too short. Causing the tripping. Your sizing video teaches more about jump type technique than many videos. I'll be getting my cross rope soon. Thank you.
You are great!...I have a problem: my left arm is weaker than the right, so my left wrist/hand stay lower when I jump.Besides that, I can not do CROSSOVER in a smooth way(I tried many times) and I think it is because the diffence of the wrists/hands...I do not know!!! How can I solve this?....I am worried about it because I have already knot the rope but it did not solve the problem.
Thank you for all of your videos, very helpful, and have also it's been helping to lower glucose on snap, by staring and developing time and control tremendous help with being prediabetic by lowering glucose.
Hello!! I just bought a brand new crossrope size Large. I am a beginner jumper and my height is 175cm. Is size large okay for my height or should I change it to Medium ? Thank you!!
Im 5'4 took Crossrope's advice and bought the small size rope..turned out to be a bit short for me...medium size is just right 👍🏻 As a general advice: if youre between sizes, always buy the longer rope..you can tie a knot in a long rope, but you cant make a short rope longer...learned that the hard way 🤷🏻♂️
I’m 5.8 and I should be getting the medium according to your chart but it’s out of stock in my country’s Amazon. Can I go with the large for my height?
This was so helpful I’m a beginner jumper with some past experience as a child but I think my hand placement has everything to do with the arch of my ropes
So exciting. i am considering buying the lean set. I am 175 cm and my current jump rope is 2.54m between handles which is quite comfortable for me. Should i buy the Medium size or Small? Thank you in advanced.
I wish you all did this vid with a few jumpers of different heights. But seeing you use the 8' rope let's me know I could do the same despite being in the the 8.5' recommended range. I do wonder if I could use the 7.5' rope though since I keep my hands low & tight. The return/exchange policy helps.
I am 5'11. What size would you recommend for me?? I have bought COSCO (Company) rope? Is it sufficient enough... Please suggest some beginner exercise...
wonderful video to explain what sizing would be best for me, thanks Dave. I'll be odering a medium size. Looking forward to my Crossrope addition to my home gym
@@roninwarrior216 It depends on two things: The heavier the rope, the louder it will be. However, the make or material of the surface you are jumping over can also reduce the noise (being more absorbant) or increase (hollow or thin surface).
Ahhhhhhh…..technique depends on rope length. Wider arms with a longer length rope. Closer to the body, hip length shorter rope! I’m a beginner and this sizing video was PERFECT! Thank you JRD
Hehe, I agree. It's a good video. Just wanted to point out that you said thanks "JRD", this video is from the owner of Crossrope himself, not the jump rope dudes who are sponsored by Crossrope :D
I am an experienced jumper I bought a size small 3 oz yellow in the replacement rope but I TIE A KNOT on one side of it ! now I need to replace the yellow 3 ounce rope again should I buy the extra small in the 3 oz since I tie a knot on one side of the 3 ounce rope size small ??? that is my problem! Confused! I am 5 “ 7
Hello, I just order the get lean rope set a while ago. I'm pretty new to jump rope. I have been jumping rope for a month now. I'm wondering if their would be a way to resize the rope myself. I'm only 158 cm. tall so I ordered the shortest rope (S). If in the future, I would like to make it shorter, will that be possible to do it on my own?
You can shorten the rope by tying a loose knot on one or both sides, as needed. 4/5 inches down from the handles. I did that with mine. It does make a difference & it won't hurt the rope. I have a cr set also. Hope that helps.
Very happy with my crossrope, but I have a question. I am 5'11''. I went with the chart and got the Large (6') Get Strong set. I find when I put a knot in the rope it shortens to 8' 2'' and I find it much easier and much more stable to jump (I am not a beginner). At full length, the 1lb rope is harder to control, I'm less stable and have to work hard to keep control. Is the full length a better work out because it is harder to control? Is shortening the rope just an easier way to go faster? You say that it is 'more efficient', which suggests you use less energy, or are their physical benefits to having a shorter rope? I'm wondering if I need the medium (8' 6'').
Med will be fine I am 5'11" and switched from large to Med. if I was trying for speed on double unders, I might even try small. Still a novice so I will stick with my mediums for now. Shorter ropes require good form. Longer ropes give more rope for crosses and other moves.
I'm really looking into getting a Crossrope set even if shipping to Germany adds 30 bucks to the bill. But I think a set of one light and one heavy rope would be the best way to go. Is there a reason for not offering a set like this? There was one with the first gen cross ropes, right?
Well let me ask you this if you order one of the crossrope jumping sets from the actual website aren't they one-size-fits-all generally speaking? Or are you required to give your particular height and weight measurements? If I order one of these damn things and it's too big or too small for me then what? LOL
I’m 5’5 and I got the medium. It’s slightly long but I rather have room to make less mistakes. I think the small would be a little too short. What size did you end up getting?
Hi, i was thinking to get a get lean infinity set but with an extra 1 lb rope. Can the get lean slim handles connect to a 1 lb rope? Or do i need to purchase a power rope for that?
GREAT VIDEO. I'm 71 years old a former competing athlete and Holistic Health Consultant. I love jumping rope. I'm a beginner and had to chill because of knee discomforts derived from sneakers that needed to be replaced. I'm starting again and ordering the 9ft rope because I'm 5' 11". Have you considered doing Senior Citizen discounts with age verification of course? I must lose about 15+ pounds and love being in shape. I'm easily mistaken for being 45 to 50 years old.
Came here after receiving my 1st order from Crossrope. Im 6'1" and the recommended (L) large 9ft rope is WAY too long. I haven't jumped rope in 20 years but already I can't approach anything close to good form with this length. Really wish I'd taken exact measurements rather than following the sizing range (which I was at the upper edge of already for L, bordering on XL!) and being disappointed after 2 weeks shipping wait.
I'm 1.89m tall (I'm from Italy) and I'm not that experienced at jumping rope, shuold I buy a large(1.77m-1.87m) or an extra large(1.88m-2.06m) jump rope?
I found this video very informative. Thanks. It seems a lot of people don’t like the idea of investing just over 13 mins in the concept of jump rump sizing and presumably after doing so they still don’t understand... if you are a beginner just starting out follow the size chart. As a general rule the more proficient you are the shorter your rope should be (a shorter rope is faster and more efficient however you have much less margin for error) so typically I’m 5.11-6FT tall and I use a size S for the heavier ropes DUs and fast speed sessions and a size M (1/4 Lb and 1/2 LB) for general fitness which would include some freestyle. I also have 9ft long handled 4mm PVC and 5mm short handled ropes which I use exclusively for freestyle. (I can tweek them by tying knots in them).  So like he says in the video there is no one size does all just depends what your doing with the rope and how proficient you are.
My rope was 8’6 but I found that I was over jumping. When recording myself jumping I saw that I was going about 5-6 in off the ground. Is this typical? I shortened to an 8 ft rope and found that I jump a lot closer to the ground under 3in.
less is more! get it to the general armpit/ upper chest level and then gradually shorten from there. test before cutting because you can't put it back together. note: there will be a new getting used to the new length period and more tripping will be expected. the shorter the rope the less room for error, but you will adjust with practice.
Hi I'm 5' 3.5" tall. Right on the line for the S that I ordered. Do I need to exchange it for the M? I've noticed that I'm tripping up and was wondering if it was because I needed to size up.
Hi Mate, can I cut the rope if I want to make adjustment? I'm 5"5 and will be buying M but incase I find it too long, can I shorten it and put the attachment back?
One question I have is the sizing chart when you order rope length at cross rope, alot of people are sending back for shorter, also putting knots in, which cannot be good for cables?
What it tells me is that I ordered the wrong size by using the chart on your Crossrope page. Based on your chart, as a 5'11" person, I ordered Large. Based on this video, I have now come to the realization that I should have ordered the medium. Now I have to wait for the package to arrive on Sunday, send it back while at the same time ordering the Medium length ropes. Such a waste of time.
I am the same height. I am not an experienced jumper. I just received my Crossropes today & I feel that the medium is to long. I will try some of his technique adjustments before returning.
Lola Manny Depends which rope you are referring to. There’s the Lean Set with 1/4 lbs (green) & 1/2 lbs (white) and Strong Set 1 lb (grey) & 2 lbs (black). All the info is at Crossrope.com
@@Crossrope maybe in the future you will offer that, otherwise, the other 1,2 companies which are very good too will take a lot of customers from crossropes...that's a thing I always hear, that crossrope is one of the best, but they are not so competative any more to everjump for example because of this problem...
I’m not sure that I’m skilled enough to answer, and I’m sure it depends on your personal form. But my crossrope arrived today and I got a chance to test it out this evening. I’m 5’9” so I ordered the large and it felt like it was a little too long for me. In the morning I’m going to measure it compared to the cheap one I’ve been using and see how it feels for my morning exercise. I have a feeling that I’ll end up exchanging the large for a medium.
Just an update, I was only 3 inches shorter with my speed rope than my cross rope. With a bit of practice, I’m comfortable with the large size. Either way, they have a 60 day money back guarantee so I’d pull the trigger on one and give it a week of practice before you make a decision about changing rope size. I think I could use the medium or large and I bet I’d be happy with either one. Honestly try it for a week and you will be amazed at how much better you feel. At this point, losing the weight will just be a bonus. Also, check out jump rope dudes on RUclips. They’re really great and I like their energy and simple strategies
Thanks for this information I am 5'7" and My rope is 7'4"I am an inexperienced jumper and kept tripping up after 2 to 5 spin, I was getting frustrated and was ready to give up, now thinking maybe an 8'6" inch or 9'0" will help me to move on and improve my jump rope skills.
SP FromNY914 at 6’2 they recommend I buy an xl rope, but I was concerned right off the bat that would be too long. Now after watching this video I m even debating on going down to the medium size. Sounds like if you have any jump rope experience or are a fast learner you probably want to shorten it up.
If,your new to jumping rope a very serious problem can occur. Your acillies tendon can can go out without tearing. Be mindful of the possibility because there's no initial pain. You just suddenly can't walk. Also just run a risk if you do calf raises and jump rope, you're placing an enormous amount of stress on the gastro and soleous. So pick one., this info is from kinesiology and PT's.
@Jump 15 - Jump Rope Fitness I’m 5’5”, do you think the Small is doable for my height? I’ve read other comments and most mentioned having wished to have ordered a size down.
@Lil Crazy Bullet Which size did you end up ordering? I’m having trouble deciding as well. Was leading towards the small for my 5’5” height reading the other comments.
@@MystiqueRoz I'm also 5'5" - cannot decide between small and medium. Did you end up buying a rope? I've been scrolling through to find someone of the same height who commented, but no luck yet! Thanks!! :)
@@deborahlee7975 but from comments on other videos I think the small would have worked for me since I don’t jump that high off the ground. Let me know which one you end up getting.
That's what I'm getting is the 9 ft ropes or large because I'm 5 ft 9 in tall myself that way you can hold the handles either way in close or out for better control !!
1.(i have only fat tigths problem)can i slim my tights and legs with ropejumping and don't built muscle ?.2. im 70 kg and doin 6000 jumps a day. May i burn 1kg a day with 6000 jumps? started only two days ago)
Hi, I'm from India, huge fan of your ropes, planning to buy the jump rope strong set can you ship to India, is there any other charges due upon delivery. I'm getting 10% discount on your site, if you have any more discount for me. Please let me know.
Hello Muni! Besides the shipping fees, there may be duty fees depending on your country's regulations. Please email us at support@crossrope.com for more information!
I'm 5'10 and I use a 10 foot jumprope (crossrope). I hate short jumpropes because when you try to do crossovers and other tricks the jumprope shortens. Don't listen to their recommendations they are too short IMO. Don't believe me? Go watch Mayweather jumprope and check out how long his rope is.
David from Cross rope pfft ! I have a cross ropes I would love to return to you! I’ve sent multiple emails tryed getting on your chat on the website! No ones on right now try again later. Monday to Sunday at all hrs. Jok ! Good luck to anyone returning any ropes you buy off theses C..TS !
hey crossrope im 6'2 and i was a boxer for 3 yrs so i feel like i am decently experienced in jumping rope and im still torn on which length i should get the 5'9-6'1.5 0r 6'2-6'9 HELP
Hey Jacob I’m 6’2 and jump rope with 5’9-6’1.5 (9ft) for boxing for over a year. I have the original set of agility 1/4 , Energy 1/2lb , Intensity 1lb and Fury 2lb.
I really didn't know jumping rope was so hard for some people. As a kid I had what was available too long too short never mattered I just jumped faster or slower depending on the length. I didnt even know you could change the length of a jump rope.
the audio of this video activated my fight or flight response.
LOL same
The teeth sucking did it for me.
WTF does he mean? Ohhhhh 😱🤣!
LOL... He heard the audio and straight up said, "I ain't reshooting this we're going with it"
Agreed, get to the point. This video is twice as long as it needs to be.
What I gathered from your video was.
1. Depending on the rope length. We'll have to adjust the technique to adapt to the length.
2. The placement of the hand. Width, height, left- right balance or front / back affects how the rope hits the ground n under the feet.
3. The key is to practice to be consistent or adapt based on rope length.
4. So if I'm a beginner or want to stick to only a certain technique. I can either buy a cheaper rope n practice my technique first before I get my cross rope. Or I can just buy a longer cross rope.
I tried today n paid attention to the form of my rope. And where it strikes the ground n how it cross under my feet. Keeping it consistent. It feels so much better. So much easier to keep going without getting tired. I used to think it's the rope problem or it's just too short. Causing the tripping.

God bless them for leaving that unexpected but glorious audio gold

The heavier the rope, the higher the clunk sound, yes. But if you jump on a mat it'll be fine I would think@@roninwarrior216

That's all fine and good, I have ordered lean set and went by your chart hope mine will be right

to a degree it will, but also throw in some back exercises like body weight rows, etc.

What should be the weight of rope for beginner having weight of 235 pounds focussing on weight loss?
try the get lean set! the 1/2 lb rope is great for beginners
do you have to buy the thicker handles for the heavier ropes? Or will the slim handles work just fine?
The Get Lean handles (thinner ones) Will only work for the 1/4 lbs & 1/2 lbs ropes. The thicker handles are for the 1 lbs & 2 lbs ropes.

Can I use the lean set handles with the power set?
The infinity handles are only compatible with the infinity ropes.

The ropes aren't adjustable
Tie a loose knot
I'm sitting in the dark and almost pissed my self at 4:24. Scared the shit outa me and now the lights are on. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hi Mate, can I cut the rope if I want to make adjustment? I'm 5"5 and will be buying M but incase I find it too long, can I shorten it and put the attachment back?
No, you cannot adjust these ropes. You should buy the correct size. If the rope is the wrong size you should exchange it for the correct size
Medium should be fine. I’m 5’5 as well and I feel medium is great, not too long, not too short
@mjojr jr I’m also 5’5” but from some of the comments I feel like I should get the S. Which size did you end up getting and how is it working for you?
@@MystiqueRoz hi, I ended up buying M and leave it as it is. Very Slightly longer but gives me more chance to do tricks... Hope that helps 😊
One question I have is the sizing chart when you order rope length at cross rope, alot of people are sending back for shorter, also putting knots in, which cannot be good for cables?
You can put knots in your ropes so long as you remove them after use. This should not cause any long term damage.
What it tells me is that I ordered the wrong size by using the chart on your Crossrope page.
Based on your chart, as a 5'11" person, I ordered Large. Based on this video, I have now come to the realization that I should have ordered the medium. Now I have to wait for the package to arrive on Sunday, send it back while at the same time ordering the Medium length ropes.
Such a waste of time.
Can’t decide what size to order as well.
I'm 5'11 too and I just got my large ropes today. I tried them once but they were way too long. I'm going to return them for the medium length
I’m 4’8 and yes I’m aware I’m short. The size 8 rope, it is big for me. What do I do?
We have smaller ropes available at crossrope.com/xxs
Crossrope Jump Ropes are these on the website? Because I’m not finding it on the website, online through the link
I'm 5'4.5" experienced, deciding between Small & Medium is a real task.
If you have good form, definitely get the small
I am the same height. I am not an experienced jumper. I just received my Crossropes today & I feel that the medium is to long. I will try some of his technique adjustments before returning.
@@kimshivonne Thank you so much for this, I'm definitely going for Small now
Hey, What’s the weight of the 8’ ripe? The one you’re using in this video
Each color has a different weight.
Ren Tro So what’s the weight?
Lola Manny Depends which rope you are referring to. There’s the Lean Set with 1/4 lbs (green) & 1/2 lbs (white) and Strong Set 1 lb (grey) & 2 lbs (black). All the info is at Crossrope.com
If you just buy a single rope and not the bundles, are handles included or do you have to buy them separately?
The handles come separately!
Can the length be adjusted on the 1lb or any of the ropes?
The rope length is not adjustable. We offer them in set lengths based on your height
@@Crossrope maybe in the future you will offer that, otherwise, the other 1,2 companies which are very good too will take a lot of customers from crossropes...that's a thing I always hear, that crossrope is one of the best, but they are not so competative any more to everjump for example because of this problem...
Im about 5'8, what do you think 🤔.
Sm Med or Lg.
Thanks.
I’m not sure that I’m skilled enough to answer, and I’m sure it depends on your personal form. But my crossrope arrived today and I got a chance to test it out this evening. I’m 5’9” so I ordered the large and it felt like it was a little too long for me. In the morning I’m going to measure it compared to the cheap one I’ve been using and see how it feels for my morning exercise. I have a feeling that I’ll end up exchanging the large for a medium.
Just an update, I was only 3 inches shorter with my speed rope than my cross rope. With a bit of practice, I’m comfortable with the large size. Either way, they have a 60 day money back guarantee so I’d pull the trigger on one and give it a week of practice before you make a decision about changing rope size. I think I could use the medium or large and I bet I’d be happy with either one. Honestly try it for a week and you will be amazed at how much better you feel. At this point, losing the weight will just be a bonus.
Also, check out jump rope dudes on RUclips. They’re really great and I like their energy and simple strategies
Thanks Seth.
Thanks for this information I am 5'7" and My rope is 7'4"I am an inexperienced jumper and kept tripping up after 2 to 5 spin, I was getting frustrated and was ready to give up, now thinking maybe an 8'6" inch or 9'0" will help me to move on and improve my jump rope skills.
Same
I ordered Large and I'm 5'11 and this thing is too big for me. On the website it said it was perfect
SP FromNY914 at 6’2 they recommend I buy an xl rope, but I was concerned right off the bat that would be too long. Now after watching this video I m even debating on going down to the medium size. Sounds like if you have any jump rope experience or are a fast learner you probably want to shorten it up.
Don't get the 9ft. You should be deciding between the medium (8ft6) or small (8ft)
@@prince_sach50 iv done the same I’m also 5ft 11” wishing I had ordered 8ft 6” long rope
If,your new to jumping rope a very serious problem can occur. Your acillies tendon can can go out without tearing. Be mindful of the possibility because there's no initial pain. You just suddenly can't walk. Also just run a risk if you do calf raises and jump rope, you're placing an enormous amount of stress on the gastro and soleous. So pick one., this info is from kinesiology and PT's.

Thank you!
Haha I came for he comments for this
5:00 lmao!! I'm 5'2" and was annoyed by the 8 foot rope tripping on it thinking it was short and here he goes at 6 feet 😓😯😯
Sounds like your troubles may have to do with form and technique.
@Jump 15 - Jump Rope Fitness I’m 5’5”, do you think the Small is doable for my height? I’ve read other comments and most mentioned having wished to have ordered a size down.
come to point, straight up
I bought the lean set and I am 5'1. I bought size small yet i feel its a bit long. How can I shorten it?
Per research the ropes are not adjustable.
Tie a knot in the rope.
I found out they come in XS. If you contact them you can ask for an exchange.
Okay, but how do I cut my crossrope to my liking?
I’m 6’4 and just bought the extra large size. Was that a mistake?
Was it ?
@@lennon7363 it wasn’t! Fits perfectly :))
I'm 5'10, what is the suggested size I should go for?
You should be good with a Large
@@Crossrope Thanks for the quick reply!! I'm ordering right now!
@@mrprivette How is the Large rope? Was it a good size or?
I am exactly 5’4 should I get small or medium
Can’t decide as well.
Do you guys sell cross rope on Amazon India
Unfortunately we only sell on Amazon US and on crossrope.com
@@Crossrope I am from India can I buy it from your site ,
Harry Arya , i see thanks
Anybody 5'9.5" and have the medium? Thoughts? I feel like if he has the small size and is 6' I should be fine right?
I sort of have the same question. I’m the same height. My old one was 8 feet. But I bought the medium yesterday. Did I make the right choice?
I'm 5'9 and got the large heavy ropes, only tries the 1 pound rope so far and seems fine, but feel I should have gone medium based on this video...
@@billnye5600 Hey, I'm the same height and want to order the medium. Do you like the medium length rope? Thanks.
Which size did you choose guys, small been alright?
I’m 6’5 but I use the large crossrope, I feel more control with it
I bought the XL and im 6"2
Ffs
@@michaelwensveen1243 was it too big?
Obrigado 👏👏👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Dang i did no check the size
Im 5.5" should i get size 9" or 8'6" jump rope?
I got the medium and I’m 5’5. Add about an inch with my ultra boost or puma RS-X on so I skipped the small
@Lil Crazy Bullet Which size did you end up ordering? I’m having trouble deciding as well. Was leading towards the small for my 5’5” height reading the other comments.
@@MystiqueRoz I'm also 5'5" - cannot decide between small and medium. Did you end up buying a rope? I've been scrolling through to find someone of the same height who commented, but no luck yet! Thanks!! :)
@@deborahlee7975 I ended up buying a weighted jump rope from Amazon instead.
@@deborahlee7975 but from comments on other videos I think the small would have worked for me since I don’t jump that high off the ground. Let me know which one you end up getting.
Is large good for 5'9"?
That's what I'm getting is the 9 ft ropes or large because I'm 5 ft 9 in tall myself that way you can hold the handles either way in close or out for better control !!
@@jeffreyelliott622 hm.. let me know how it goes! I want to know your opinion. ^_^
1.(i have only fat tigths problem)can i slim my tights and legs with ropejumping
and don't built muscle ?.2. im 70 kg and doin 6000 jumps a day. May i burn 1kg a day with 6000 jumps? started only two days ago)
Hi! Yes, jumping rope helps to burn overall fat.
Hi, I'm from India, huge fan of your ropes, planning to buy the jump rope strong set can you ship to India, is there any other charges due upon delivery. I'm getting 10% discount on your site, if you have any more discount for me. Please let me know.
Hello Muni! Besides the shipping fees, there may be duty fees depending on your country's regulations. Please email us at support@crossrope.com for more information!
Crossrope Jump Ropes Sure. I will email them. Thanks
I got mine today " Get Lean Set" Crossrope... And I'm proud I am a newbie. Practice Practice Practice and never give up.💪🏽👆🏽
2 years later I am a newbie. You got that right...practice!
How is it going?
I am 5’8 and i ordered my cross rope in a large size . I think its too long for me . What can i do ? Thanks
Get a medium instead
Whats up with he camera person. Get a tripod. HOLD STILL
the stupid gimbal he is using is making all of those unnecessary movements lol
It was shot at sea.
5:02 Wahoo your speed
your site makes it hard for a beginner 6"2 guy lol sizing is either gonna be barley enough or way too much
is the camera floating or what
I'm 5'10 and I use a 10 foot jumprope (crossrope). I hate short jumpropes because when you try to do crossovers and other tricks the jumprope shortens. Don't listen to their recommendations they are too short IMO. Don't believe me? Go watch Mayweather jumprope and check out how long his rope is.
is anyone else seeing this right leg or is it only me
David from Cross rope pfft !
I have a cross ropes I would love to return to you!
I’ve sent multiple emails tryed getting on your chat on the website!
No ones on right now try again later.

Good luck to anyone returning any ropes you buy off theses C..TS !
Hello. Apologies for the delay. Please process a return here: www.crossrope.com/exchange-and-return-policy
@MTyourPockets trying to decide on these rope. All reviews I’ve found are positive. Would like to get your opinion on these ropes.
hey crossrope im 6'2 and i was a boxer for 3 yrs so i feel like i am decently experienced in jumping rope and im still torn on which length i should get the 5'9-6'1.5 0r 6'2-6'9 HELP
Hey Jacob
I’m 6’2 and jump rope with 5’9-6’1.5 (9ft) for boxing for over a year. I have the original set of agility 1/4 , Energy 1/2lb , Intensity 1lb and Fury 2lb.
Adrian Dougherty appreciate it bro and I ended up get the 5’9-6’1 a month ago I just winged it and it was perfect 👌🏼
gonna quit in between
I really didn't know jumping rope was so hard for some people. As a kid I had what was available too long too short never mattered I just jumped faster or slower depending on the length. I didnt even know you could change the length of a jump rope.
Might want to re-record this. It sounds like a Charlie Brown special. Also it really hurts to listen to with headphones.
can you shorten these ropes? I just got mine... video should have been shorter smh, it didn't need to be 13 minutes long.
No. But some comments I’ve seen on other videos said that you can exchange your rope.
