Full details
The Nike Fundamental Speed Rope is an ideal training companion for athletes, CrossFit enthusiasts, and boxers who need a lightweight, durable tool to boost endurance and agility.

FAQs
How do I determine the correct length for my height?
Stand on the middle of the rope with one foot. The handles should reach your armpits when pulled taut.
Can I use this rope on concrete surfaces?
While durable, it is best to use on rubber or wood gym flooring to prevent the cable from fraying on abrasive concrete.
Is this rope weighted?
No, this is a speed rope designed for lightness and rapid rotation rather than resistance training.
How do I clean the rope?
Simply wipe the handles and cable down with a damp cloth after use to keep them free of sweat and debris.
Does this rope come with spare parts?
The product includes the jump rope with adjustable handles as a complete unit; spare parts are generally not required for this design.
Is this suitable for double-unders?
Yes, the ball-bearing handles are specifically designed to facilitate the speed required for double-unders.
Troubleshooting
The rope feels too long or too short during use
Adjust the length at the handles by sliding the stopper to your required height and trimming the excess if necessary.
Handles are not rotating smoothly
Check the ball-bearing housing for debris or dust and wipe it clean with a dry cloth.
The cable has developed permanent kinks
Hang the rope vertically for 24 hours to let gravity straighten the cable, or gently warm it with a hair dryer on a low setting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your rope, determine the correct length by standing on the center of the rope and pulling the handles up; the ends of the handles should reach your armpits. Adjust the internal mechanism to your preferred length and secure it before use. Compatibility is universal, as the rope is designed for all fitness levels, from beginners learning the rhythm to pros focusing on speed. For care, simply wipe the rope and handles down with a damp cloth after each workout to remove sweat and dust, which helps ensure the handles continue to rotate smoothly.
