Sports reviews of Harbinger 9-Foot Adjustable Speed Jump Rope
Customer Review: Overrated!
Sport shop rating: 2 Stars
I'm really surprised at how highly rated this jump rope is. First of all, I think the claim that this rope is adjustable is a little misleading. To adjust it, you have to remove the caps and tie the ends in the appropriate spot. It would be nice if it came with clamps of some sort that you could clamp on in the right spot to adjust. My other complaint is that it gets far too twisted up! I store mine by hanging it up to reduce tangling, but the rope tends to twist up in the middle as I'm jumping, forcing me to stop jumping and fix the rope.Customer Review: Durable? I think not...
Sport shop rating: 1 Stars
I read every single review for every speed rope available on amazon.com. I thought that I would make an intelligent decision and buy this rope based on the positive reviews from others.
What they said was true. It is good for people 6'0 tall and it can be adjusted. It looks nice and has a nice rubber rope cover.
I put this rope to its test and was doing fast double jumps, tricks, etc...
At first I thought this rope was perfect. I was finishing up my casual warm up when the rope snaps in two and hits me on the face. Outside that black cover is an incredibly thin rope ( clever using cheap material inside? ) .
I am pissed of now because I need to continue my workout so I put duck tape over it, and will use it temporarily. Now I am going to order an everlast rope. I hope it doesn't suck as much as this one.
Customer Review: Keeps twisting up
Sport shop rating: 1 Stars
I used this rope for over two weeks hoping that the fact that it keeps twisting up on itself was just because it was new and needed to be broken in. After two weeks I gave up. It kept twisting up on itself and I would have to stop in the middle of jumping to unwind it. A few jumps later it would be all twisty again. I ended up buying a better quality jumprope that works beautifully.Customer Review: Dont bother
Sport shop rating: 1 Stars
If you are looking for a jump rope to work out with, dont bother with this one, it's a cheap rendition and you'd be better off with a piece of rope from a boating store. The plastic is so hard you really feel the misses and all the kinks have not worked themselves out.
if the shipping were cheaper than the cost of the product, I'd return it.
Customer Review: Junk
Sport shop rating: 1 Stars
Plastic junk. Tried it once. Wont try again. Just get a piece of rope and cut it to size. This thing is suppose to be adjustable. Only with difficulty of yanking it through the handle. The plastic rope does not turn properly so therefore it twists and kinks, leading you to trip over it. Just get a piece of rope.
