 Works for me! June 9, 2008

I saw a few complaints about adjusting the length of this rope. However, I had no issues pulling the caps off the end of the handles and did so by hand. Then I measured the length I needed - to measure a jump rope correctly, stand on the middle of the rope with both feet. The ends should come up to your armpits. There were two extra crimp bands included, so I just cut off the extra length, used a pair of small pliers to crimp the new band in place, and put the cap back on. I recommend you use a rubber band wrapped around where you think you need the crimp band first, try jumping with it for a few rotations, then put the crimp band on where the rubber band was. Too easy.

I read some of the reviews about the valeo jump rope. I should say complaints, because of the difficulty to adjust and cut and pop the top or whatever. I don't know what these people were talking about. It was simple and easy to push the rope up through the handle to make the button on the top of the handle pop off. Then you measure the tube, cut and tie. And then of course jump rope. It's great exercise that you feel, and notice right away.

This is a good Jump Rope. Rubber, I think. It's nice and heavy and has a nice swing.
It's pretty easy to adjust the length. Just in case you need a Rule of Thumb for that:
Step on the rope and hold the handles in both hands, elbows close to your body. You have the right length if your lower arms are parallel to the ground and the rope is tight. I actually leave mine a little longer.
Excellent speed rope, no problems adjusting it December 25, 2008

Valeo must have changed the method of adjusting the length of the rope, now all I had to do was pop off the black plastic end cap, crimp the extra metal ring, and pop the cap back in. Took a knife and a pair of pliers, and took all of 5 minutes to get it all done.
great jump rope for price December 26, 2008

I bought this jump rope for my twin boys. They take a Tae Kwon Do class and wanted to learn how to jump rope. I bought this product mainly for the price, but I was a little bit concerned after reading all the reviews about length adjustment. I don't get it.... If you need to adjust the length (which I did have to), there is an extra crimping ring for each side. No need for knots. You simply cut off the excess rope and crimp the second ring at the length you want. No need to uncrimp the first ring. Just discard it with the excess rope. Very easy. Great price.
