FAQs
Is this rope suitable for beginners?
While designed for intermediate to advanced users, beginners can use it by removing the handle weights and focusing on basic skipping techniques. Adjusting to the weight can be done gradually.
How do I determine the correct rope length?
Stand on the middle of the rope with one foot. The handles should reach approximately your armpit level. Adjust by loosening the screw, sliding the cord, and re-tightening.
Can I use this rope outdoors?
It is best used indoors or on smooth surfaces like gym floors or mats. Rough outdoor surfaces can accelerate wear on the PVC cord.
What is the total weight of the skipping rope?
The total weight of the JUMPA 2 skipping rope is approximately 514g, with the majority of the weight coming from the handles.
How do I clean the handles?
Wipe the handles with a dry or slightly damp cloth after each use. Avoid submerging them in water.
Are the handle weights permanent?
No, the weights inside the handles are removable, allowing you to customize the rope's resistance level.
What materials is the rope made from?
The rope is made from PP (Polypropylene) and PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride).
Troubleshooting
Rope tangles frequently.
Ensure the rope length is correctly adjusted for your height. Check that the bearings are clean and spinning freely. Try performing jumps in a more open space.
Handles feel too heavy.
Remove the internal weights from the handles. Gradually reintroduce them as your strength and endurance improve.
Rope is not rotating smoothly.
Check the bearings inside the handles for dirt or debris. Clean them with a dry cloth or a small amount of lubricant if necessary. Ensure the cord is not twisted or caught within the handle mechanism.
Cord shows signs of wear or fraying.
Inspect the entire length of the cord, especially near the handles and any trimmed ends. If significant wear is present, it is recommended to replace the cord to ensure safety and performance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Unpack the JUMPA 2 skipping rope.
- If desired, unscrew the end caps of the handles to access and remove the internal weights. Ensure the weights are secured or removed according to your preference.
- Adjust the rope length: Loosen the screw on the handle, pull the cord to the desired length (ensure it reaches your armpit when standing on the middle of the rope), and re-tighten the screw. Trim any excess cord if necessary, securing the end to prevent fraying.
Compatibility:
- This rope is designed for general fitness use on various surfaces. However, for longevity, it is best used on smoother, indoor surfaces like gym floors or mats. Avoid rough outdoor surfaces like concrete or asphalt, which can damage the PVC cord.
Care:
- Wipe the handles with a dry or slightly damp cloth after use to remove sweat and dirt.
- Store the rope in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures, to prevent material degradation.
- Periodically check the bearings and cord for any signs of wear or damage. If the cord is frayed or the bearings are stiff, consider replacement.
