Customer Reviews

I saw a few complaints about adjusting the length of this rope. However, I had no issues pulling the caps off the end of the handles and did so by hand. Then I measured the length I needed - to measure a jump rope correctly, stand on the middle of the rope with both feet. The ends should come up to your armpits. There were two extra crimp bands included, so I just cut off the extra length, used a pair of small pliers to crimp the new band in place, and put the cap back on. I recommend you use a rubber band wrapped around where you think you need the crimp band first, try jumping with it for a few rotations, then put the crimp band on where the rubber band was. Too easy.

I have to agree with the other reviewers here- it's a great speed rope, but it's not easily adjustable. You have to remove a cap, tie a knot around the ends, then slide it back in. Fortunately, I'm 6'1", so I didn't need to adjust the rope! Not long enough for people taller than 6'3" in my opinion.
