Jump rope
A little flimsy and very thin.

Adjustability is a nightmare…
For the most part, I really like this jump rope. It’s lightweight, easy to use, and has a nice whip and turn.The two issues are that it coils/tangles way too easily when in use, which is dangerous, and adjusting the length is a nightmare.I’ll focus on the second issue. It’s reeeeeeeeeeeally long, and unless you need it super long, there’s no way to tuck the excess into the handle and still have the handle lock. The only way to adjust it is to cut the rope, but the problem is it’s military grade steel wire so you need not just any wire cutters but some seriously tough wire cutters. I went through three different types of wire cutters without success until I asked a neighbor for help. He had an industrial grade wire cutter, and even then he struggled to cut it but finally succeeded. So unless you’re excessively tall, jumping 2-3 people at one time, or have industrial grade wire cutters handy, this product is nearly useless because there’s no way to use it unless you can cut the impossible-to-cut wire.While I like the idea of it being “adjustable,” I’d rather it just come in different lengths for different heights because once it’s cut, there’s no un-cutting it for a longer length anyway, so what’s the point of it coming extra-long to begin with? Just coming in the right length to begin with would be great.Getting the length right is just part of the process, and once adjusted, it’s a good jump rope, so you never have to worry about the length again after that. A moment’s inconvenience. That said, it definitely knocked a star because I would have liked to pull this out of the box and use it. Instead it’s been a process of finding a tool capable of cutting it.

Cheap Feel (For a Cheap Price)
This jump rope is super lightweight. Like if there is one thing I can say about it, it is that it is incredibly lightweight. The handles are made from some sort of foam, which lends itself a bit to the “cheap” quality I mentioned in the title. (Caveat, I am by no means an experienced jump roper. If lightweight handles are a key indicator for jump rope this nails it.)The rope itself is like the cable for a swing set – sturdy, and just heavy enough to comfortably swing around. I was worried at first that it would be TOO light to actually swing, but the cord is indeed the heaviest part of this product.Inside the handles are adjustable stoppers. Basically (see the picture) the white part bites down on the cable (so you can shorten it as much as you’d like by permanently cutting the cable to the desired length). Then the silver piece rests on the white stopper. The black plastic cap screws onto the silver piece, and then the momentum of swinging is the only thing that keeps the cable from bunching up inside the handle. If you want, you can force a decent chunk (1 – 1.5 feet) of cable into the handle, but it won’t stay.This stopping apparatus feels cheap and clumsy. I think if this product breaks it’s going to be this single white stopper part, and if that happens the cord will slide out of the handles. You could probably put tape, or something in it to recreate the effect.If you don’t know your size, and have a small budget, I think this will work fine for casual use. If I were to do it again, I would google recommended lengths based on my height, and by a fixed length one of slightly higher quality, but I don’t regret my purchase as a beginner jump-roper.

Excellent jump rope! Not the best for beginners.
This jump rope is incredible. It is FAST! I recommend you start with a regular old nylon jump rope if you’re new to this. This rope is so thin that when it’s moving at speed you can’t even see it. You have to time your jumps based on the sound of the rope hitting the ground. Get your rhythm and technique down with a thicker, slower, more visible rope. Many reviews mention the ease of length adjustment. True, it’s easy to adjust but you cannot simply stash the slack in the handle. You have to cut it completely. If you jam the excess into the handle the rope won’t rotate in the ball bearing. It will jam up. Make sure the overall length of slack in the handle is less than the length of the handle. Overall this is a great rope!

A durabilidade e horrível

I have read the men’s health review that this skipping rope is the price seller. That is true! It’s really cheap. Everyone can afford 10-15 bucks for a rope.But if you want a rope for skipping you better skip this rope…A rope with a wired cable is absolut nonsense. It got stuck everywhere at my body.

I didnt like it because I thought it is kind a heavy duty jumping rope but it wasnt. If I could return them and have my money back…
