Cirque de UCLA

Jump Ropers tend to be great performers. By the time most jumpers hit college, they have a lot of valuable experience under their belts from being in front of audiences and playing to the crowd. It’s no surprise that some jumpers gravitate to the performing arts, like Cirque du Soleil for example.

In this video, jumper Brian Singleton puts his performance experience to use at the 2006 UCLA Spring Sing. You can tell Brian is very comfortable hamming it up for the crowd. This is a very fun performance with a good sense of humor. The “glow rope” also adds a nice touch.

USA Jump Rope All Star Team Video

Here’s another amazing video of the USA Jump Rope All Star team. This looks like it was taken in 2006 at the world championships. This video has some of the coolest tricks in it, including a three-person double dutch trick called “Gears” and an unbelievable five-person double dutch trick called “Grand Central Station.” It’s so cool to see all of the tricks that have evolved from the original “Subway.”
