 Works Well June 18, 2008

Jump rope is amazing and provides a good workout that is fun. I'm about 6 foot and the rope was a little too long. It was rather easy to alter the size. You just need to cut the rope at one of the ends and use pliers to re-lock the rope. You'll see what I mean when you order. I use every other day as a warm up before the gym. Its comfortable on the hands and is easy to use. I would recommend for beginners and experts.
 Good flow and rhythm June 13, 2008

But watch your skin, it hurts if the rope hits you as it is some plastic/vinly material that is pliable but strong.
Works for me! June 9, 2008

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.
