5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome speed rope!, May 9, 2010

This is the best jump rope I've ever used! The rope is light enough, yet dense enough for me to perform extremely high speed swings. (Yes, it also hurts a lot when I miss a jump and whip myself haha.) If you're looking to do more than just light cardio, then look no more. This rope is fast enough for you to continuously perform double unders; and if you can challenge yourself to a TRIPLE UNDER, this rope will make it possible.

I figured I'd go for a bargain with the Valeo Deluxe Speed Rope, but I'm a little disappointed with it because I really did get what I paid for. Its rubber is less dense and I have to exert a lot more force from my arms to perform the double unders and the triple under is just impossible. Unfortunately, this 9-ft rope will only fit certain sized frames--about 5'll" to 6'5". Or you'll have to tie a knot(s) down each side to have it fit you if you're shorter.

5.0 out of 5 stars Solid rope., April 15, 2010

I've been using this jump rope for a couple weeks now, and I'm pretty satisfied thus far. It's plenty long enough for my 6'3 frame, and spins as fast as I need it to. The bearings make it feel a little different than a rope without them, but I got used to this after one or two trips to the gym. Overall, a great rope for the price.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not for short people. Not adjustable., June 22, 2010

I only rate this 1 star for me personally. I'm sure if you are looking for a rope and you're of a normal stature you will most likely agree with the other reviews provided. I am 5'3" and need this shortened. I just wanted make it known that this rope is not adjustable.

I do understand there is no statement saying it is but I didn't figure that the rope's design would hinder you from doing so. I popped the handle end off, it will not lower down through the handle end for you to shorten the rope. This is because there is a metal piece crimped on the end of the rope in the handle and cannot be pushed past a narrowing point. You could tie knots before the rubber rope enters the ball bearing end of the handle but that is pretty ghetto and seems to me to throw off the rope a bit. I thought about cutting the rubber rope before it entered the handle then putting it back in but the metal piece would still be loose.

There are many ropes to choose from on Amazon. If you need to adjust your rope then this is not the one for you.
