Unlike some other jump ropes, the Blast Fat! Speed Jump Rope is made from quality materials and, if treated with care, should last for years. (retailing for $14.99 on amazon.)  Not only is the rope fast and efficient, but it is also stylish and feels great in your hands. With its high-speed and durable design, the rope is perfect for any cross-fit athlete looking for that extra edge when competing. While beginners may need some time getting used to the pace of the rope, most advanced athletes should find the rope easy to use and should notice immediate improvements.
