The Original Rx Jump Rope

Great for learning double unders! I’ve been doing CrossFit for three years and have not been able to string together double unders. Four unbroken was my PR, but even that was a bumpy ride on the struggle-bus. I’ve bought four or five different kinds of ropes, and watched hours of YouTube videos and have been putting in quality structured training 3-5 times on week on jump rope. And still every metcon I would scale down to single unders. This is my third day with this rope and I hit 18 unbroken reps. I’ve still got a long way to go but everything is starting to click. The handles are light and comfortable, the handles spin super smooth and the cable is heavy enough that I can finally feel the rhythm. I didn’t get the perfect fit. I’m 5’6” and I bought the 8’6” one which works okay but I have to hold my hands wide. But I live in South Korea and Amazon is the only way to get these ropes (the free shipping balances out the poor exchange rate) and I had to roll the dice with sizing. But I look at this as a beginner rope and hopefully by next year I’ll be able to graduate to a lighter speed rope. Amazing quality. Worth the price. Wish I had gotten a pair sooner and will buy from the company again in the future.

Absolutely love this rope! The handle design let's you find tune where your thumb sits, it's really helping me string together double under! Why did you pick this product vs others?: Because other reviews recommended it for double unders. Workout value: Double unders! Quality: High! Grip: Very granular, allows for a few different holds! Value for money: 100% Ease of use: Easy!

I invested in my RX rope because I got tired of fumbling through ropes at the boxing gym, trying to find the right length and weight each time. I've used the rope (beginner weight, FYI) for about a year and a half now, and love how it feels. It allows for cross-arms and doubles with dependable swing. HOWEVER, it didn't take long (app. fifty workouts) before jumping rope in the parking lot wore through the cable cover and even began to part the cable strands themselves. The original cable is still usable but now dangerous for bare hands -- those broken steel strands will cut you in an instant. So I recommend jumping on rubberized mats, flat cardboard, or something else that will protect your rope and your investment. And if your rope does wear out, replacement cables are relatively inexpensive (about $16).

This is THE rope if you want to do double unders. If you’re a pro, you can probably go for one of those speed ropes. But if you’re a beginner or medium, the weight on this rope will help tour timing. You can order lighter or heavier ropes from their website for $16. Not cheap, but not outrageous. Ropes will damage quickly depending on the surface you use on. Jumping on concrete will considerably shorten the life of the rope, but like I mentioned above, replacing it isn’t that bad

Decent rope, used it a lot and the grip tape started coming off in pieces. The rope plastic also started to deteriorate and the metal inside was shredding.

Okay, so let's talk about any jump rope over $30, because this is important to say out loud. If you're looking into this rope, this is arguably the best & most reasonably priced quality rope you're going to find. I'll explain why: the bearing/grip set up is a mixture of both a speed rope, and a boxing jump rope. This means you'll be able to both speed jump, and do tricks like double-unders, crossing arms & the like! If you search though the options & observe both price points & handle/bearing design, you'll find most ropes are just speed ropes, which are designed only to rotate quickly. Useful, but everything else becomes very difficult when you're only able to rotate forward/backward. Other jumpropes on-par with this one seem to double in price. This is a solid build with strong handles, solid metal bearings, and a well-coated twisted wire rope. Not overly branded, comes with a travel bag as well! This was a thought-out package & it shows! $50 well spent.

Love the handles and how easily the joints spin/turn, but the rope end up being a bit thin and 'whippy'. Very good for short bursts or intervals, but would get a heavier rope for extended workouts. Does seem very durable and will last.

I love this jump rope. I feel it’s easy to hold ,perfect weight , I don’t like any others because they are to soft and light I trip over them but this is my second one and i will not change it . Thank you

If you are serious about double unders I strongly recommend this rope. Fast and also provide a good feedback to you dur the heavy cable. Be careful about cable length, for me 9" is just perfect be aware that you can't short the cable but instead you can replace it be another one shorter or lighter as you come mor proficient in your double unders.
