Ballistyx Jump Rope - Premium Speed Jump Rope with 360 Degree Spin, Steel Handles, Silicone Grips and 2 x Adjustable Cables - for Crossfit, Gym & Home Fitness Workouts & More

Excellent! I'm super picky buying a new rope (I like to try fast and double unders etc) and this stood out. Steel rope and well priced. I've used it a while and it's perfect, I'm super pleased. I expected to end up paying a good amount more. I didn't realise it came with a power rope and a super speeding rope so that was a nice surprise. I'd have possibly paid more for that upgrade option if it wasn't already included. An excellent purist rope and unless you want jump counters and all that I can't imagine anyone being disappointed with it.

I love this jump rope. I am not new to jumping, but I’ve always used much thinner ropes. Even the speed rope in this set is bigger than what I’ve used in the past. I thought that’s where it was at, but after using this rope I cannot go back to my think rope. I love that I can feel some weight in my hands. I’m not sure the physics behind this, but I am able to jump much more efficiently with this rope (less stopping/mistakes) and my heart rate is definitely more elevated. When I lift this rope, the weight makes me want to continue jumping. My arms get more of a workout too. This isn’t considered a weighted rope, I believe those at are t at 1/2 a pound, this one is barely 1/4 pound, so it’s really not heavy, but my body certainly feels the difference. I can’t wait to jump again once done. I even use it to get steps in and elevate my heart rate when my watch tells me it’s time to stand or if I just need a quick pick me up. Quality-wise, the rope itself is solid and doesn’t keep links or bends, which also helps it be more efficient. The handle fees very high quality and doesn’t slip out of my hands when sweaty due to the material. Cutting to the appropriate length and fastening it in the handle was simple and easy and they also come with extra clips, which was nice, just in case. I wonder if you could order just the fasteners from epitome fitness if necessary though. Or maybe it’s free, that would be a bonus. But maybe I’ll never even need extras. If you’re looking for a rope that gets you a real full-body workout and motivates you to keep going, this is it! Some reviewers mention the handles coming loose, meh. Just don’t drop the damn thing on the door all the time because the fasteners aren’t that tight. But if you tighten before jumping and place it down with care in between sets or circuits etc., they stay in place. A slight inconvenience if you’re in the zone and rushing and don’t have softer surfaces or mats to drop it quickly, but that wouldn’t make me return it. Sometimes we require way too much convenience, it’s really not that big of a deal, probably adds 1 second to your workout time each time, and hey… use that time to be more mindful of the kick-ass workout you’re doing while taking care of your body.

This is a great rope. I like that it has the option of a weight rope (around 1 lb) or a speed rope. I also purchased a PVC mat to jump rope on. The rope turns smoothly thanks to the ball bearings in the handles and it takes very little effort to turn. I am able to get a great workout with this item in a minimal amount of time. I have not used the rope too much yet but durability seems good. That said, this will be affected by what surface you are jumping on. Concrete will wear out any rope eventually. I have only used this on a jump mat and it still looks brand new. I wanted to get this as an alternative to running in the winter and it should suit that purpose well. Highly recommended.

Well, where do I begin with this rope! I like to incorporate skipping into my workouts, and have done for approx 2 years now. Since the start of my skipping career I have bought and used 4/5 skipping ropes, and out of all of them this is the best one by far! And I’ll tell you for why: 1. The product comes with two cables, a ‘power’ cable and a ‘speed’ cable. Both of these cables do exactly what they say and each offer a different/great workout, they are also very easy to change over at any given time. 2. The handles are easy/comfortable to hold and the rotation mechanise within is smooth and robust. 3. The product as a whole is robust, well made and a pleasure to use. 4. The customer service provided by the seller is second to non! When contacting said seller and querying an issue, the seller was quick to respond and more than happy to help. All in all a great product, and It truly deserves 5 stars.

First impressions were to be highly impressed when this arrived, nicely packaged and lots of spare connectors should they be needed. This came with two ropes so perfect for variation in training. Really easy to assemble and I loved the fact that there is loads of cable which can easily be adjusted to a shorter length if needed. At 6ft tall this has been an issue for me in the past but not with this set. The non slip handles are nice and weighty but also doing get sticky when you have worked up a sweat. Wish I had this sooner when I was developing my skipping technique.
