Jump Rope like you probably never saw before

 This is not your grandmother’s way of jumping rope

There is a video ‘out there’ on the net that was emailed to me by a friend that seems to be some kind of jump rope competition.

And wow!  These folks have taking this sport to a whole new level.

This is not the skip skip skip jumping rope routine that most of us did as kids.

And it is not even the fancier jumping that athletes such as ‘prize fighters’ do.

No, Toto, we are not in Kansas anymore.

You will NOT believe what you see.

And, you will notice, there are NO fat folks in the group.

For a noisy and very animated 7 minute 59 second video, HERE’S THE LINK 

And if, after seeing that video, you were ‘inspired’ to take up or resume your old jumping skills, for some instructions (or reminders) to get you started, HERE’S THE LINK.
