Rating: - An OK rope, but adjustable? Not easily.
As others have said, the big surprise was when I wanted to adjust it. If you don't have pliers, you're going to be stuck. I didn't get any extra crimp pieces with mine, so I had to use a metal pick (typically used for removing cotter pins) to bend one of the existing stops off the end of the rope. Then I cut to the appropriate length, and re-crimped the end with pliers. Was more effort involved than should have been since it's advertised as "adjustable."
The actual operation is pretty ... Read More

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.

Its comfortable on the hands and is easy to use. I would recommend for beginners and experts.

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 ... Read More
Rating: - Does the job
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 ... Read More
