Jump Rope Videos

Today I stumbled across this awesome jump rope video from German jumper Sebastian Deeg. Sebastian is an amazing single rope freestyle jumper. Some of these tricks are pretty sick. I really like some of the rope releases he does in combination with other tricks. There are several tricks in this video that I had never seen before, and you know me… I always like to see something new. The rope release, grab foot, jump over leg then catch rope was a nice surprise. I don’t know what it’s called, but it looks sweet. This video is packed with lots of other nice little surprises like that. You have to watch it a few times to catch them all. Keep up the good work Sebastian!

This is a pretty sweet jump rope demonstration at the Ritsumeikan University entrance ceremony in 2006. Ritsumeikan University is located in Kyoto, Japan. Once again, the Japanese Double Dutch teams demonstrate a very high level of excellence in their performance and production values. It’s very difficult to perform synchronized choreographed double dutch routines. It’s hard enough to do a single choreographed double dutch routine, but to have 3 sets of ropes and keep them perfectly synchronized is extremely difficult.

Here’s another great jump rope team show by the kids from Hong Kong.
