Thanks my man. I have those things down (criss cross and double unders). I want to do what I see RJJ and PBF doing in their workout videos. I just don't know the name of the actual move to look it up.

when I was in 6th grade I joined the skipping club (think girls doing double dutch) and I learned sooo many different ways to jump rope, its really amazing how many different things you can do with a jump rope.

Are your criss crosses smooth? like could you do them every other jump?
I always screw them up because i dont cross the handles at the right spot and i'm not sure where in front of you you're supposed to cross them, it's hard as hell to test it too since you have a habbit of wanting to keep the handles straight
When do you start to cross them?

Hmmm...lol I've no problem doing them either but it's so hard to explain :redface:

Yeah, it took me a few days of practicing recently to get them smooth. You cross at the elbows. The best thing to do is to practice your swinging your arms as you would but without jumproping. Try it a few times to get the motion down and then add in the rope. It is much easier then it seems.

Skipping is great for footwork and cardio. I don't see why that's retarded. People have got to learn how to do things somehow.
