{"product_id":"adjustable-steel-wire-skipping-rope-with-bearings","title":"Adjustable Steel Cable Skipping Rope with Bearings and Optional Handle Weights","description":"\u003ch2\u003eThe cable finds its rhythm somewhere around the thirtieth turn\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe first minute is always clumsy. You are too far from the wall, the cable catches your heel, you start again. Then the arc settles and the handles stop fighting you, and what you hear is the cable ticking the floor at the same point every revolution. The bearing at each handle end is why: the cable pivots instead of winding up against the grip, so the rope keeps its shape while your wrists barely move.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat you get is a dark coated steel cable, 2.8 m of it, running out of a metal eyelet at the top of each handle. The handle body carries a moulded EVA foam sleeve ringed in the accent colour of your pair, closed at both ends with faceted hard caps. Black with red, black with blue, black with green, or plain black. Pick the weighted version and each handle takes a slim chrome metal bar that slides in and back out again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eA bearing in each handle\u003c\/strong\u003e The cable turns on a ball bearing rather than a fixed eyelet, so it keeps rotating through the top of the arc instead of stalling and twisting.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2.8 m of adjustable cable\u003c\/strong\u003e Long enough for tall jumpers out of the packet, and shortened at the handle for anyone else.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoated steel cable\u003c\/strong\u003e A steel core under a dark coating, thin enough to move quickly and heavy enough to hang straight rather than flop.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMoulded EVA foam sleeves\u003c\/strong\u003e The grip is foam over the handle body, not bare plastic, and it is ringed in the accent colour of your pair.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRemovable handle weights on the weighted version\u003c\/strong\u003e Two chrome metal bars slide into the handles and slide back out, so the same rope works light or loaded.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFour colourways\u003c\/strong\u003e Black with red, black with blue, black with green, or plain black, in standard or weighted.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBest for:\u003c\/strong\u003e anyone skipping on concrete, tarmac or a gym floor who has worn out a plastic beaded rope and wants the cable to hold its arc, and who would rather adjust the length once than live with a rope that is nearly right.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy It Works\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA skipping rope is one moving part and one joint. Get the joint wrong and the rope twists after twenty turns; get it right and the rope stops being something you think about. The ball bearing is that joint here, and it is a real bearing race rather than a hole in the plastic. The cable is the second half of the answer: steel keeps its line under speed where a light plastic cord starts to wander. The two together are why this rope rewards going faster, and why the weighted bars are a genuine second setting rather than a gimmick, since the mass sits in your hands and not in the arc.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQuick Product Facts:\u003c\/strong\u003e speed skipping rope; coated steel cable, 2.8 m, adjustable at the handle; ball bearing at each handle end; moulded EVA foam grip sleeves; faceted hard end caps; metal cable eyelet; colourways black with red, black with blue, black with green, plain black; standard version or weighted version with two removable chrome metal bars; packing list is one skipping rope.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow It Fits Your Routine\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDay one is the fitting. Stand on the middle of the cable, pull the handles up, and the ends should reach roughly your armpits. Trim the excess through the handle and jump ten easy turns to check. Most people take out more than they expect on the first go and put a little back on the second.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter that it is a warm up you can do in a doorway or a car park. Two minutes of steady singles before weights, or thirty seconds fast against thirty seconds rest when the rope is the whole session. The coated cable copes with concrete and tarmac, which is where a bare wire would fray first.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe weighted bars change the session without changing the rope. Slide them in when you want the handles to feel loaded, slide them out when you want speed back. When you are done, coil the cable loosely rather than folding it, since a sharp kink stays in a steel cable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the weighted version come with the bars?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes. The weighted colourways ship with two chrome metal bars that slide into the handles. The standard versions are the same rope without them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow heavy are the handle weights?\u003c\/strong\u003e The maker prints a figure that is not physically possible for bars of this size, so we do not quote a weight for them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I shorten the cable?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes.
