Ballistyx Jump Rope - Premium Speed Jump Rope with 360 Degree Spin, Steel Handles, Silicone Grips and 2 x Adjustable Cables - for Crossfit, Gym & Home Fitness Workouts & More

This is a great rope. I like that it has the option of a weight rope (around 1 lb) or a speed rope. I also purchased a PVC mat to jump rope on. The rope turns smoothly thanks to the ball bearings in the handles and it takes very little effort to turn. I am able to get a great workout with this item in a minimal amount of time. I have not used the rope too much yet but durability seems good. That said, this will be affected by what surface you are jumping on. Concrete will wear out any rope eventually. I have only used this on a jump mat and it still looks brand new. I wanted to get this as an alternative to running in the winter and it should suit that purpose well. Highly recommended.

Well, where do I begin with this rope!I like to incorporate skipping into my workouts, and have done for approx 2 years now. Since the start of my skipping career I have bought and used 4/5 skipping ropes, and out of all of them this is the best one by far! And I’ll tell you for why:1. The product comes with two cables, a ‘power’ cable and a ‘speed’ cable. Both of these cables do exactly what they say and each offer a different/great workout, they are also very easy to change over at any given time.2. The handles are easy/comfortable to hold and the rotation mechanise within is smooth and robust.3. The product as a whole is robust, well made and a pleasure to use.4. The customer service provided by the seller is second to non! When contacting said seller and querying an issue, the seller was quick to respond and more than happy to help.All in all a great product, and It truly deserves 5 stars.

I love jump ropes. I keep at least one at work and one at home. This is a comparison of 2 of Epitomie’s ropes. This rope, the Ballistyx, is the black rope in the pic with the mostly black handles. The red one is their Sonic Boom 2.Both accommodate my 6’ height with probably 6” to spare. Both are adjustable, but the Sonic Boom 2 (SB2) is quicker to adjust. The Ballistyx (B) has a thicker plastic rope, the SB2 is a thinner plastic coated rope over a metal core. I feel I get a touch more speed out of the SB2, but can easily double under with both. I personally prefer the heft of the the B.Both handles are long and easily fit my large hands length-wise. However, the SB2 has a much smaller diameter and feels too small to me - sort of the diameter of old school plastic beaded jump ropes. The B is larger, but not too big - perhaps slightly smaller than some of the foam handled ones on the market. I think the B is a perfect fit. Both have a great silky feel and hold up well to sweat. Neither handles are weighted, but both have a solid, durable feel to them.Overall the SB2 is lighter, slightly quicker, and smaller handled. Personally, I prefer the Ballistyx with its slightly larger handles and thicker rope. Both are great speed ropes that are solidly built. I like them both and you can’t go wrong with either.

Excellent! I'm super picky buying a new rope (I like to try fast and double unders etc) and this stood out. Steel rope and well priced. I've used it a while and it's perfect, I'm super pleased. I expected to end up paying a good amount more. I didn't realise it came with a power rope and a super speeding rope so that was a nice surprise. I'd have possibly paid more for that upgrade option if it wasn't already included. An excellent purist rope and unless you want jump counters and all that I can't imagine anyone being disappointed with it.

Very good quality
