I bought this jump rope to add some variety to my cardio workouts. The cord snapped on me the second week I had it. It has done this twice since then. Being rather tall this rope is almost too short to be usable now. I am not very impressed with this product. The bearings actually cut the cord...I don't recommend this jump rope if you are serious about using it regularly but it's probably fine if you are not going to use it a lot.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not much to say about a jump rope, October 27, 2009

Not much to say about a jump rope, the handles are weighted and can be adjusted, the end bearings are smooth and cord length can also be easily adjusted. Overall I'm satisfied with the product and for those who like to bring some of their own equipment to the gym, I recommend hanging the rope rather than folding it because it will kink.

3.0 out of 5 stars Rope twist too quickly, April 26, 2010

The ball bearings in the handles are supposed to prevent the rope from twisting, however, after very little time jumping the rope twist and makes it more difficult to keep jumping.

Handles are also kind of bulky!
