My fave parts of crossropes are the weight in the ropes so I can actually feel the dang thing and know when to jump. Also, I really dig the smoothness of the handles. It's just a great system!
Nice video, I just started jump roping for 4 days and my jump rope broke right in the middle in mid air😂 just ordered this set with the 20% off can’t wait to get them even got 2 day shipping just because of the great discount code you gave😀
Just ordered the get lean set 2020 can’t wait to try em out . I’ve been jump roping for 4 years and can do criss cross , squat jumps, one foot and even jumping jacks 😁
Nice breakdown, Kyle. I appreciate it. They sent me a new set of Power Handles to replace the old ones. The old ones didn't quite make it to the two-year warranty. It was super cool of them to do that. Have you tried the WODPrep?
Nice! I love their customer service👍 I don't have the wod prep, but I have the LE Speed set which are the same thing plus another rope weight. They are made with a thicker cable and thinner pvc covering so they are smaller in diameter and faster, but will wear thru to the cable faster so stay on a mat. The main reason to go that route is wanting more speed.
@@Jump15official, thanks for the information. I just got the Speed LE as well and will release a review next Monday. It's good so far. The wide range in weights is the biggest advantage I see.
Excellent review! After years of just lifting weights, I'm making the transition to jumping rope as a primary form of staying fit. This review was informative and helped me in making a decision to go and get myself a crossfit rope... so thanks a ton for this! By the way, what's the background tune that's playing whilst you're testing the ropes in the gym? Seems like the perfect tune for jumping rope 😀
Thank you and thanks for the support! Make sure you snag that discount! I will have to review the video and get back to you on the song. That's been a while so I'll see if I can figure it out haha

The prices he stated aren't what Crossroad showed me the get lean previous set was $119 & the new handle set is $129! Boy, I wish I could get them at the cheaper prices!
nice video, I have been eyeballing the crossrope for a couple of years. I have limited experience with rope skipping as usually I was rope skipping in my in between days from running (but not something special). A question that you might been asked a lot, is it better to start with the light or the heavy set? I am thinking of buying both; but I am asking solely on the best way to start, thx
The get lean set ropes are the best to start with. This will help you build a solid base of form and technique before taking on the more challenging heavy ropes. Be sure to use my discount!🤙
Nice review man, just a quick one. Did you go with a small size for both, heavy and normal ropes? Does it make sense to go small on both if i am 5'9? Thx
Thanks bud. Yes I went small on both. I find people get away with shorter ropes on the heavy ropes, but you want your lighter ropes to be the length you want for high performance. What is the length of your current rope excluding the handles? I would match that as best as possible.
@@Jump15official May I ask how tall you are? And do you like the small now that you've had the ropes a while? I'm 5' 3 1/2" and a beginner. I'm only planning on very basic fitness jumping, nothing fancy. Thank you so much, I love your videos.
Hi, Is it possible to use the light ropes with power handles? I mean are they compatible or is it that I need to use only heavy ropes with power handle?
Hi! Great video as always! Does the price of the Crossrope Get Lean set vary in the US and EU? When I check from EU it says it costs $120 ($96 with 20% off). Or have they increased the price worldwide?
I bought my get lean set about the time you posted this, and I paid $98 (actually slightly less with a $10 discount and free shipping) in the US. If I had to take a guess it had to do with the logistics of shipping to the EU. Maybe see if they have any distributors over there that get a better price because they order in bulk?
Okay I got coming in the get lean set 1/4 lb and 1/2 lb with the lighter weight handles was my first order so I went back on my second order and getting the 1 lb rope along with the squared mat and the large carry bag !!!! Now I also wanna go ahead and get the 2,3,4 and 5 lb. ropes as soon as they are available should I also get the power handles along with those ropes or will the lighter weight handles work for all of the ropes ?
If you recently ordered you may want to try contacting Crossrope and see about updating your order to the get fit set. That will save you money and get you both sets of handles plus the 2 lb rope. You will want the power handles for the 2 lb and up ropes. They really help take stress off the wrists when you get those heavy ropes. I find The lighter handles work fine up to 1 lb, but I still prefer to use the power for 1 lb and up. Looks like you will be set! Appreciate the support Jeffrey🤘🤜

Can anyone help me out? I want a really reliable and durable rope. I’m having a tough time deciding between the Get Fit set which includes the Slim & Power handles + 1/4lb , 1/2lb, 1lb & 2lb ropes versus the HEAVY LE SET which has the Heavy LE handles + 3/4lb, 1 1/2lb & 3lb ropes. Any help is appreciated as they are very similar in value 💪🏾❤️ happy jumping friends. Edit: Im 6 foot 0.5 inches, size Large would be good right?

That's good. I don't think you can go wrong there👍 Worst case scenario your not out much and can save up for upgrade down the road if your happy with them.
What is the difference between the two types of handles? Do you need both? Also can you adjust the length of the rope? If anybody knows that would help me out thanks!
The slim handles (smaller ones) are better for speed and doing skill work. The power handles are better for use.with the heavy ropes (2 lb and up) as they help remove stress off the wrists. The slim handles can be used with 1/4 lb - 1 lb ropes). Crossrope's are not adjustable, but I do sometimes place a knot in one side to shorten up for speed work. Being interchangeable, there is no way to make them resizable without compromising the integrity of the design. We don't want heavy ropes coming loose in the middle of jumping. If you have a current rope length you like, measure it excluding the handles and go with the closest size.
I'm getting ropes for my birthday. I'm so excited! Thank you for everything, awesome video. I just subb'd to your channel too, you're doing a great job!
Okay I got the 1/4 , 1/2, 1 and 2 lb. ropes now I wanna get the 3,4 and 5 lb. ropes to complete my collection but they're all out at the website of everything so when they gonna bring back the heavy ropes ?
I think they will be doing the LE Heavy Set again this fall which is the 3/4 lb, 1.5 lb, and 3 lb ropes (you can just buy the 3 lb separately) and the ultra heavy set is the 4 & 5 lb ropes and I'm not sure when they are going to release those again. It may be late summer or fall/winter time frame.
No they function very differently. With the weight in the rope as it swings around you it pulls in all directions making your upper body work much harder. Ankle weights simply add a little weight to your feet.
I’m waiting for them to improve their jump rope handles to titanium or stainless steel. The current jumprope handles corrode over time, especially if you live in an environment that is humid.
So excited that I stumbled onto your channel. I’ve been debating getting the Crossrope system but just wasn’t ready to pull the trigger. Your video was clear and honest. Thanks so much. Also, the welcome20 code gave me a better discount than the current promotion crossrope is currently offering. Can’t wait for my new ropes to arrive and to stop fighting the ropes I’m using currently. Just subscribed to your channel. 👍
@@Jump15official I agree that's what wears the sheathing, and that cold temperature will reduce the flexibility of the vinyl. Increasing the probability of shock from the impact of normal usage, to cause the vinyl to crack. I've put a lot af vinyl siding on a lot of houses in all seasons and have a good feel for the behavior of vinyl. This is why I highly suspect that during a speedy side swipe, while the rope comes to a close parallel, the arc at the end of the rope becomes very small. The more speedy the side swipe is, the tighter the arc gets. Increasing the amount of stress in the center of the rope while impacting. Think about how much of the rope impacts the ground, and how much of the rope cracks and where. Now think about how and where the rope comes to a tight arc during a side swipe. The cracks tell the story more convincingly one way than the other.
I was thinking about purchasing this but I'm only 5'2. I saw that you're 5'10 and you use the small sized ropes. Do you think these would be too long for me?
I have worked down to a shorter rope than typical over time. If you have a current rope that you like, measure it excluding the handles. If you're experienced, you can ask Crossrope if they have any extra smalls in stock. They usually don't advertise those. Otherwise, go with the small. You can always put a knot in one side to get it a little shorter and just remove it after you're done. They have the 30 day guarantee as well. Hope this helps!
yes, they are noticeably lighter and shorter than the previous version. The elimination of the clip clicking against the handle was more noticeable once I used them. I had just become used to hearing it with the old ones. The grip is softer and a little tackier which is 👍. And yes, you can use the power handles with the lighter ropes if you prefer them.
Jump 15 - Jump Rope Fitness Thanks for the feedback! I currently use the rush athletic ropes and love them to death but I’ve had a few break on me. Also I want to add heavier ropes to my training and feel that this is the perfect time to get one
They are like the LE Speed set Crossrope launches every so often. They have a thinner coating and bigger cable to provide the weight so they are a little stiffer and a faster designed for CrossFit athletes doing lots of double and triple unders. Personally, I prefer the Get Lean over the wod prep set because they are more durable ropes so I can jump on concrete on occasion.
Thank you for the support Sammy, you will love the ropes and welcome to the channel! Getting started is so much fun. There can be struggles, but there is so much progress to be made. Be sure to check out my START HERE playlist on my homepage so you can build a solid foundation of the basics and if you have any questions, let me know. Happy Jumping!🤙
Medium If you have a current rope, measure it excluding the handles and match to the closest. But I think a medium would be good unless you currently use a shorter rope than 8.5'. All sizing charts err on the side of longer for beginners. For instance, I'm 5'11" and worked down to a size small and even extra small over time. Hope that helps and let me know if I can help further🤙
@@Jump15official the current rope I use is about 2.57m which is a M, but I have difficulty in doing crossovers consistently; so i bought both sets, I was thinking M for the get strong as I don’t do tricks in those! Would you say that is alright ?
@@jakylee buying a get lean and a get strong is more expensive than getting the get fit set. Doing skills comes down to technique and form. Having extra weight in the rope (even the 1/4lb will help you there. Remember you will have 30 days to exchange or return if sizing isn't working for you.
That lifetime warranty... my handles started to disintegrate, leaving black foam specs on my hands. I did a video and took pictures. My claim for a replacement was rejected... "it was decided that it was not an unreasonable amount of wear with the handle". I have no idea what a "reasonable" amount of wear is for handles that are a few months old, but their "lifetime warranty" isn't lifetime.
Sorry your dealing with that Michael. It would be interesting to see what happened because they don't have any foam on the handles and I haven't heard of this issue before. If you're willing, shoot me a photo to jumpintoabetterbody@gmail.com.
@@Jump15official Thank you again for taking the time to help me. Last week, I contacted customer service again. They got back to me today. The rep and her manager apologized for not recognizing that the handles had different versions. The only thing I'd be worried about is, they don't seem to be concerned if the handles break down, only if the bearing fails or if the clip doesn't open. Well, thanks again!!!
These ropes are not adjustable you have to know your size. You can change the size a bit by putting a knot on one or both sides, which I do when I ant more speed. If you have a current rope length you like, measure the length excluding the handles and get the closest size to that measurement.
Technically you can and I can jump fairly comfortably with the 1 lb rope on my slim handles, but prefer the power handles overall because it helps reduce wrist strain. I feel the 2 LBer is just to heavy for the slim handles and can't recommend doing that.
I broke my infinity handles... I ordered the new 2020 handles and I DONT like them... the handles are shorter than the infinity so it makes my rope shorter... disappointed
How did your handles break? Give it some time and practice. Small differences in length can throw you off a little but you will adjust and you very well may end up liking it even more. Remember you have 60 days and size exchange if nothing else.
@@Jump15official funny you mentioned adjusting because today I actually jumped for a longer period of time and I like them now LOL. so my mistake. and I kept throwing my rope to the ground a little too rough. so definitely my fault.
@@Jump15official thanks man! I ordered the Get Lean Medium a few days ago and I'm 5'8. I knew I should have ordered the small one too. My Get Strong medium one arrived and I have to fold my arms like an L to use it properly
Surely there must be other good brands of ropes besides Crossrope. Yes maybe they're the best but they cost a small fortune. Should I buy a new washing machine or crossropes?
Haha that's extreme. Honestly for how long they have lasted me the cost is pretty reasonable. The handles go forever and I've replaced my 1/4 lb rope only every 2 yrs or so. But I do understand. Elite SRS is my other go to brand. 🤙
@@Jump15official Thanx for replying. I'll check it out, but I forgot to mention that I live in South Africa and here they go for between R2000 and R6000. That's like a month's salary. Unfortunately I think that when American's make these vids, they forget that earth has other continents with people on it and that those people have access to youtube but not always to the products they do.
@@Jump15official I can only speak for South Africa. I don't know about the other countries in Africa, but in South Africa we don't have popular per say. Only affordable which translates to no name or made in China. But I'll do some homework and let you know. I personally bought a Reebok rope and it's okay but wearing out quickly.
All ropes wear faster on concrete, but Crossropes hold up the best from my experience. When I jump on concrete I always pick the smoothest surface possible. If concrete is your main option, I suggest grabbing a mat to jump on.
@@UliSwag Crossrope just released a new one. You can also look at gorilla mats - haven't used them but they have peaked my interest and I want to try them. Also, a rubber horse stall mat is what I have. Heavy and not portable, but works great.
They didn't change the rope attachment mechanism, so unless they do that they should be good for a long time. I'm not worried about that, they aren't a tech company. haha
Dude, use a lavalier mic, especially when filming in the gym. Nothing more irritating than watching a YT video and having the sound disappear in the next scene.
How about a review of inexpensive jump ropes. Not everyone can justify the expense of a CrossRope. There are plenty of inexpensive jump ropes on the market that seem to do just as well for training.
I wanted to love the crossrope, but the sizings are just all wrong. I'm just shy of 6 feet tall and the large rope is too short for me. They replaced with an XL rope and it was too long for me. I think if you are going to pay $80 for a jump rope, then they really ought to be adjustable. My 6 dollar plastic rope is far superior to the crossrope
I'm sorry you had trouble with the sizing. If you still have the xl you can try putting a knot in one side. Jump rope sizing has much more to do with skill level, form and technique than simply height. For example, I jump with ropes ranging from 8.5 ft to 7.5 ft in length. The reason Crossrope is not adjustable is because you can change rope weights. Adding a mechanism for length adjustment adds a potential weak point that is too risky when swinging heavier ropes. While I don't doubt that your $6 rope works well for you, it is simply no comparison to Crossrope. They are very different in their capabilities. But if the size doesn't work for you, it doesn't work. You did have the 30 day guarantee. Did you take advantage of that?
Gotta try it man. 60 day money back guarantee. If you jump for fitness it definitely beings a lot more to the table, but if it's not for you....it's not for you🤙
They are giving you a life time warranty because they rip you off with the rope you have to replace every few months, the app and the production cost of the handle is below 5$ 🤣 it’s all promo dude
My rope has lasted on avg well over a year with heavy use. Your speculation is wrong man. I used to work with Crossrope and Dave sources the best materials to make the highest quality product he can.
I understand where you're coming from. It really depends on how much you like to jump rope. If it makes up a good portion of your workouts, I believe it's totally worth it. If not, you may want to pass. Remember, if your in the U.S. you have a 60 day period to try it out and get your money back if you think it's not worth it. Have you tried weighted ropes before? They truly are a game changer. That's why I'm an affiliate for them. I believe in the product 100%. That being said, I know they aren't for everyone. No product is.
What is your favorite feature of the Crossrope System?
get lean 2020
The weighted ropes. And how simple it is to switch them out on the handles.

I agree that's what wears the sheathing, and that cold temperature will reduce the flexibility of the vinyl. Increasing the probability of shock from the impact of normal usage, to cause the vinyl to crack. I've put a lot af vinyl siding on a lot of houses in all seasons and have a good feel for the behavior of vinyl. This is why I highly suspect that during a speedy side swipe, while the rope comes to a close parallel, the arc at the end of the rope becomes very small. The more speedy the side swipe is, the tighter the arc gets. Increasing the amount of stress in the center of the rope while impacting.
Think about how much of the rope impacts the ground, and how much of the rope cracks and where. Now think about how and where the rope comes to a tight arc during a side swipe. The cracks tell the story more convincingly one way than the other.
how long is the crossrope rope?
They come in 4 or 5 different sizes.
I was thinking about purchasing this but I'm only 5'2. I saw that you're 5'10 and you use the small sized ropes. Do you think these would be too long for me?
I have worked down to a shorter rope than typical over time.
If you have a current rope that you like, measure it excluding the handles. If you're experienced, you can ask Crossrope if they have any extra smalls in stock. They usually don't advertise those. Otherwise, go with the small. You can always put a knot in one side to get it a little shorter and just remove it after you're done. They have the 30 day guarantee as well. Hope this helps!
I’m 5’2 and have three different sets of cross ropes and they are all in small and work great for my height.
Have you noticed a huge difference between the old and new handles?
yes, they are noticeably lighter and shorter than the previous version. The elimination of the clip clicking against the handle was more noticeable once I used them. I had just become used to hearing it with the old ones. The grip is softer and a little tackier which is 👍.
And yes, you can use the power handles with the lighter ropes if you prefer them.
Jump 15 - Jump Rope Fitness Thanks for the feedback! I currently use the rush athletic ropes and love them to death but I’ve had a few break on me. Also I want to add heavier ropes to my training and feel that this is the perfect time to get one
What do you think about the 2020 WODprep Jump Rope Set from Cross Rope?
They are like the LE Speed set Crossrope launches every so often. They have a thinner coating and bigger cable to provide the weight so they are a little stiffer and a faster designed for CrossFit athletes doing lots of double and triple unders.
Personally, I prefer the Get Lean over the wod prep set because they are more durable ropes so I can jump on concrete on occasion.
thanks for the review and welcome20 code! I used your link! I am on day3 of jumping!
Thank you for the support Sammy, you will love the ropes and welcome to the channel! Getting started is so much fun. There can be struggles, but there is so much progress to be made. Be sure to check out my START HERE playlist on my homepage so you can build a solid foundation of the basics and if you have any questions, let me know.
Happy Jumping!🤙
Thanks for the code, kk20 took off £17 off the Lean set!!
🤘Nice, glad it worked out for you!!!
I"m 5'11 would you recommend their sizing chart size? 9ft Large?
Medium
If you have a current rope, measure it excluding the handles and match to the closest. But I think a medium would be good unless you currently use a shorter rope than 8.5'.
All sizing charts err on the side of longer for beginners. For instance, I'm 5'11" and worked down to a size small and even extra small over time.
Hope that helps and let me know if I can help further🤙
@@Jump15official the current rope I use is about 2.57m which is a M, but I have difficulty in doing crossovers consistently; so i bought both sets, I was thinking M for the get strong as I don’t do tricks in those! Would you say that is alright ?
@@jakylee buying a get lean and a get strong is more expensive than getting the get fit set.
Doing skills comes down to technique and form. Having extra weight in the rope (even the 1/4lb will help you there.
Remember you will have 30 days to exchange or return if sizing isn't working for you.
That lifetime warranty... my handles started to disintegrate, leaving black foam specs on my hands. I did a video and took pictures. My claim for a replacement was rejected... "it was decided that it was not an unreasonable amount of wear with the handle".
I have no idea what a "reasonable" amount of wear is for handles that are a few months old, but their "lifetime warranty" isn't lifetime.
Sorry your dealing with that Michael. It would be interesting to see what happened because they don't have any foam on the handles and I haven't heard of this issue before. If you're willing, shoot me a photo to jumpintoabetterbody@gmail.com.
@@Jump15official Thank you again for taking the time to help me. Last week, I contacted customer service again. They got back to me today. The rep and her manager apologized for not recognizing that the handles had different versions.
The only thing I'd be worried about is, they don't seem to be concerned if the handles break down, only if the bearing fails or if the clip doesn't open.
Well, thanks again!!!
How you adjust the length of the rope ?
These ropes are not adjustable you have to know your size. You can change the size a bit by putting a knot on one or both sides, which I do when I ant more speed. If you have a current rope length you like, measure the length excluding the handles and get the closest size to that measurement.
Thnxxxx brother
Can we fit 1 and 2lb rope into lightweight handles ? I have been trying to figure out..
Technically you can and I can jump fairly comfortably with the 1 lb rope on my slim handles, but prefer the power handles overall because it helps reduce wrist strain. I feel the 2 LBer is just to heavy for the slim handles and can't recommend doing that.
Jump 15 - Jump Rope Fitness perfect thank u so much for replying.
I broke my infinity handles... I ordered the new 2020 handles and I DONT like them... the handles are shorter than the infinity so it makes my rope shorter... disappointed
How did your handles break?
Give it some time and practice. Small differences in length can throw you off a little but you will adjust and you very well may end up liking it even more. Remember you have 60 days and size exchange if nothing else.
@@Jump15official funny you mentioned adjusting because today I actually jumped for a longer period of time and I like them now LOL. so my mistake. and I kept throwing my rope to the ground a little too rough. so definitely my fault.
Yo! What’s your height and what size of rope did you get?
I'm 5'10" and use a small (8')
@@Jump15official thanks man! I ordered the Get Lean Medium a few days ago and I'm 5'8. I knew I should have ordered the small one too. My Get Strong medium one arrived and I have to fold my arms like an L to use it properly
Bummer. Remember that you can do a size exchange👍 sucks to be without the ropes but you will be happier long term for sure
Can these jump ropes be used on any surface!
I don't hesitate to use them outside, but I do always choose the smoothest surface possible.
Surely there must be other good brands of ropes besides Crossrope. Yes maybe they're the best but they cost a small fortune. Should I buy a new washing machine or crossropes?
Haha that's extreme. Honestly for how long they have lasted me the cost is pretty reasonable. The handles go forever and I've replaced my 1/4 lb rope only every 2 yrs or so.
But I do understand. Elite SRS is my other go to brand. 🤙
@@Jump15official Thanx for replying. I'll check it out, but I forgot to mention that I live in South Africa and here they go for between R2000 and R6000. That's like a month's salary. Unfortunately I think that when American's make these vids, they forget that earth has other continents with people on it and that those people have access to youtube but not always to the products they do.
@@fyreOwlTrue I feel you brother. Yes, the majority of my viewers are from the U.S.
What is a popular jump rope brand in Africa?
@@Jump15official I can only speak for South Africa. I don't know about the other countries in Africa, but in South Africa we don't have popular per say. Only affordable which translates to no name or made in China. But I'll do some homework and let you know. I personally bought a Reebok rope and it's okay but wearing out quickly.
Will the ropes last jumping on concrete?? Anyone know?
All ropes wear faster on concrete, but Crossropes hold up the best from my experience. When I jump on concrete I always pick the smoothest surface possible.
If concrete is your main option, I suggest grabbing a mat to jump on.
@@Jump15official any mat that you know of that u recommend ?
@@UliSwag Crossrope just released a new one. You can also look at gorilla mats - haven't used them but they have peaked my interest and I want to try them.
Also, a rubber horse stall mat is what I have. Heavy and not portable, but works great.
Oh wow looking at the website I thought they either gave you the black or white handles, I didn't realize they were both colors 🤣
Best of both worlds! Haha
How to order this crossrope from India?
Thru the website bud. I have heard shipping and customs can be rough. I don't have a solution for that unfortunately.
@@Jump15official Thanks for your reply
You'll have life time handles until they change the design again..
They didn't change the rope attachment mechanism, so unless they do that they should be good for a long time. I'm not worried about that, they aren't a tech company. haha
I have the first generation.. when i get to break all the ropes i bought they will be forever timeless ; )
Dude, use a lavalier mic, especially when filming in the gym. Nothing more irritating than watching a YT video and having the sound disappear in the next scene.
Thanks for the feedback.👍
They’ve already replaced the Infinity handles once.
ya, but they make them better every time. They make them to last and they still work with the ropes, you'll be good to go for a long time.
can i buy it also in germany ?!
Yes you can. Check the link in the description ⬆️
@@Jump15official I know, but it s with shipping from the US - I want to buy in germany, without taxes and shipping
I understand.

@@Jump15official ok, thanks a lot
How about a review of inexpensive jump ropes. Not everyone can justify the expense of a CrossRope. There are plenty of inexpensive jump ropes on the market that seem to do just as well for training.
I actually recommend a specific affordable option. ua-cam.com/video/R7_qMCNjN2w/v-deo.html
Jump 15 - Jump Rope Fitness Thank you!
I wanted to love the crossrope, but the sizings are just all wrong. I'm just shy of 6 feet tall and the large rope is too short for me. They replaced with an XL rope and it was too long for me.
I think if you are going to pay $80 for a jump rope, then they really ought to be adjustable. My 6 dollar plastic rope is far superior to the crossrope
I'm sorry you had trouble with the sizing. If you still have the xl you can try putting a knot in one side. Jump rope sizing has much more to do with skill level, form and technique than simply height. For example, I jump with ropes ranging from 8.5 ft to 7.5 ft in length. The reason Crossrope is not adjustable is because you can change rope weights. Adding a mechanism for length adjustment adds a potential weak point that is too risky when swinging heavier ropes.
While I don't doubt that your $6 rope works well for you, it is simply no comparison to Crossrope. They are very different in their capabilities. But if the size doesn't work for you, it doesn't work. You did have the 30 day guarantee. Did you take advantage of that?
Try bringing your hands in closer to your hips. I’m 6’1 and use small and mediums.
👍 it takes time to work down to a short rope, but it's worth dialing in that form and technique.
Great rope but... The price is just a deal breaker.
Gotta try it man. 60 day money back guarantee. If you jump for fitness it definitely beings a lot more to the table, but if it's not for you....it's not for you🤙
They are giving you a life time warranty because they rip you off with the rope you have to replace every few months, the app and the production cost of the handle is below 5$ 🤣 it’s all promo dude
My rope has lasted on avg well over a year with heavy use. Your speculation is wrong man. I used to work with Crossrope and Dave sources the best materials to make the highest quality product he can.
It's nice but so damn expensive.
I understand where you're coming from. It really depends on how much you like to jump rope. If it makes up a good portion of your workouts, I believe it's totally worth it. If not, you may want to pass.
Remember, if your in the U.S. you have a 60 day period to try it out and get your money back if you think it's not worth it.
Have you tried weighted ropes before? They truly are a game changer. That's why I'm an affiliate for them. I believe in the product 100%.
That being said, I know they aren't for everyone. No product is.
@@Jump15official It's pretty costly with shipping to India.
Oh yeah, that's a different story for sure.
only 18$ 😂😂 here in my country with 18$ u can buy more then 5 jumpropes
But how long do they last?😉
Whatever works for you as long as your out jumping! 👍
Of course you would recommend them.. it’s a sponsored video.
Not true bud
It’s $18 is a rope break/wear down ? Please do update review 2022!
I think the 1/4 lb rope replacement is now $25. Use my discount code to knock that price down a bit more😉🤙
