RX Jump Rope: "Inferno" (Tactical Series) - My Jump Rope of Choice |
I never liked the jump ropes provided by my CrossFit
box. They have a heavy, thick plastic
rope and the handles are too large for my hands. Despite my distaste for them, I worked up to
stringing together maybe 5-8 double-unders (DUs) using these ropes, but always
wondered what the fancier ropes felt like that I saw everyone else was
using. At a local CrossFit competition I
went to soon after I was able to string a minimal amount of DUs together, I
visited the RX Jump Ropes booth and asked to try out a rope. Standing awkwardly on a grassy slope with a
thin rubber mat, I attempted and nailed 10 straight DUs on my first try! I was so shocked that I had hit 10 DUs that I
immediately stopped jumping and started talking purchase.
