Sports reviews of Harbinger 9-Foot Adjustable Speed Jump Rope
Customer Review: Don't count on adjustability
Sport shop rating: 3 Stars
The ony thing I can say about this is that if you think you will be dependant on the adjustability you might want to pass this up. Luckily for me the length is still workable (im 5'6") but if you think you will need to shorten the rope for whatever reason do not count on it. To adjust it what you do is just push the some of the rope down into the handle and in my experience unless you continue to hold on to the rope directly while you jump it will simply expand back out to its full size.Customer Review: It's good, but wire is weak
Sport shop rating: 3 Stars

Customer Review: U could do better.
Sport shop rating: 3 Stars
okay jump rope but because it does not turn on ball bearings it twists and tangles horribly in 60-80 turns.Customer Review: satisfactory but a bit heavy
Sport shop rating: 3 Stars
Overall, it is quite satisfactory with several tries.
However, it is a bit heavier than I expected.
Customer Review: So so rope
Sport shop rating: 2 Stars
I saw this at the Vitamin Shoppe and since I'm always willing to try new jump ropes, I picked it up. I like these type of speed ropes, the ones with ball bearing and a rubber encasing over the rope. I find that it spins smoothly and fast and its easier to do tricks that a lightweight speed rope (although not as easy as the beaded ropes for trick but overall, I like the speed rope better). This rope is adequate if you just want to skip, do some crossovers and some double unders etc. But the rubber is too stiff thus it doesn't unkink all that well and turning action isn't that great even though it has bearings. I've also bought an Altus speed rope similar to this which was marginally better. Believe it or not, the Sports Authority brand of "professional" speed rope is far superior than either. The rubber is much softer and it turns a lot faster and smoother. Still, this is a servicable rope, I'm sure you can get a very good workout and if that's all you want, then I recommend it.
