Jump Rope Videos

Now that the 2008 US National Jump Rope Championships are behind us, it’s time to get pumped for the World Championships. They will take place in less than a month in Cape Town, South Africa from July 22nd-30th. To help us all prepare… here’s a cool story about the development of the sport of Jump Rope in South Africa.

Good luck to all of the competitors from around the world!

Thanks for sharing Vienna. Your team has some great videos. This was my favorite because of the variety of jump rope styles that it demonstrates. Tell the team I said great job and keep up the good work spreading the word about the sport!

Zev Troxler sent me this sweet routine. Nice jumping Zev!

This is one of the best Fusion routines I’ve seen recently. This is from DOUBLE DUTCH CONTEST BELGIUM Vol.2. There are some great looking tricks in here. The leap frog front punch is pretty cool. And so is the two footed frog-180-high frog into a freeze headstand combination. Fun stuff. The jumpers and turners look super smooth throughout the whole routine.

Check it out…

Here is a great performance sent to us by the amazing Sebastian Deeg. The jumpers are Mathias De Jans (Belgium), Jonas Vermeulen (Belgium) and Sebastian (Germany).

The first time we did that Show was last year in December for a Tour in 9 different Cities in Germany and 1 in France! But we (Rope Skipping) been just a small part of a huge Show, with gymnasts, acrobatics and magicians. The video is from a Show 3 weeks ago (17th of may 2008) in Ludwigshafen (http://www.oneworld-twl.de). It was a big Show with lots of different variations of gymnasts, acrobatics and of course us Jump Rope.

The show is choreographed very well and they pull it off with no mistakes! Great job guys! Thanks for sharing Sebastian!
