Title says it all. the weight is good. easily adjustable to your height. the metal feels good. only complaint is that the rope moves inside the handholds. Might be on me to figure out how to stabilize that

I ordered a weighted jump rope from Backers start up. It was expensive(!) yet a good rope, except if you went too fast and missed a step it would whip my leg getting a burn. Thin ropes tend to do this but this rope I received today, is so easy to use, nice grip plus you won’t have that problem of rope burn. I’m so impressed and what a great value!

This is a great weighed rope for the money. There are better out there, but you’ll be paying a decent amount more.
Pros:
1). it comes with two ropes. One is braided nylon, the other is solid plastic.
2) the braided nylon rope has a movable silicone sleeve that protects the rope itself. This is great if, like me, you use this outside on concrete. It’s held up great so far. The concrete has eaten through many other ropes I ve had in no time at all.
3). The ropes are more than long enough for even the tallest person. I’m 6’3” and I had to shorten the rope a decent amount
Cons
1). If you shorten your rope you will have to trim the excess, so make sure it’s correct before you do
2). The handles feel a tad cumbersome. Not awful, just a tad awkward

Perfect jump rope

For the money this thing is great and the weight is fantastic for beginners and experienced users alike.
Easy to adjust (just need a box cutter or sharp scissors) – just make sure you don’t cut it too short.
The PVC rope and aluminum handles are nice and durable and the ball bearings definitely make the whole thing move much more smoothly than a cheap alternative.
It’s heavy enough to make learning new step patterns easy because you have good perception of where the rope is and it moves slower than a traditional lightweight rope.
On the other hand, it’s still light enough that you can get it moving quite fast once you’ve got your rhythm down – great for cardio and it’ll have your shoulders burning after a few rounds, excellent for boxers and martial artists.
I haven’t used the braided rope but it seems to be of equal quality and includes a rubber protector to stop it fraying if used on concrete.
If this ONLY included the PVC rope it would be worth the money, so I’m definitely pleased with the purchase.
Would definitely recommend – especially at this price.

One of the best rope I’ve purchased. The other ones are not strong enough

as a now avid jump roper, I can say that this is a decent beginner rope but far, far from an efficient one. Not to get scientific, but the fact that the rope is fabric/cotton means that it doesn’t fare particularly well against the air as you whirl it around. i only discovered this after switching it out for an all rubber rope of the same weight. the fabric meets so much drag from air resistance that it renders the exercise quite inefficient. the positive to this is that while inefficient, it doesn’t mean ineffective, since the inefficiency means that you’re forced to really work out your wrists, forearms and shoulders, which I suppose is a weird backwards silver lining to it. But having switched to good rubber weighted ropes, I gave this one away as a starter rope to a friend who’s just getting into jump roping, and even he after a few weeks has purchased better ropes for the same reason.

I’ve worn out 2 regular non-weighted jump ropes, and hit a plateau a few months ago. I just haven’t felt challenged, and largely stopped even breaking a sweat during my jump rope sessions, until now.
The weight of this rope definitely changes things up, and I feel my core and upper arms activating in ways a regular rope couldn’t touch even in the first 2 uses.
I can’t speak to the longevity or sturdiness as I just started using the weighted rope – but for the fun and feel of the challenge I’d say it’s worth it. 👍🏼
As a plus, adjusting the length was super easy and intuitive. Took seconds. Simple, stylish, and fun. 😊

Update: So after almost daily use since I received the purchase, the rope is literally burning through where it sits in the handle. I’ve loved many things about this jump rope, but am realizing I need a more durable jump rope for the frequency I use it. Loved the weight, loved the style, loved the ease of use and the thickness of the rope along with the durability of the handles. Don’t love that the rope is literally burning apart from the friction. If you want a stylish jump rope, with a durable handle, that you don’t intend to use daily then this jump rope may still be for you. 👍🏼

Started boxing a few months ago and wanted to start jump roping for cardio but the thin jump rope I had before this one was really hard for me to use. Bought this one and absolutely love how well it’s made and the added weight and size makes it easier for me to actually get the technique of jumping a lot better then the thinner one I had before. 10/10 quality and it comes with an additional plastic rope in case you don’t want to use the fabric one.
The only issue I have with this rope is that the handles allow you to adjust the rope by cutting it to length but then the handles can become loose and the caps will fall off. A little glue and that issue clears right up though. Happy jumping!

Jump rope has good weight to it, but still balanced. Handles are aluminum, so they’re easy to clean, they also unscrew and there is a slider inside that allows you to adjust the length of your jump rope. It has a guard in the mid-point of the rope, I use mine on concrete, after 2 months of use 3 days a week, still no visible wear. The handles have ball bearings which allows the rope to complete turns without having to move your arms as much.

This is the perfect jump rope for someone who needs a little extra. If you are tall 6ft+ its perfect for you and easy to adjust the length. It will give you a good sweat and work those arms. Just make sure you wear shoes unless you like having your feet in pain. 🙂
