Leather Skipping
What kind of Skipping Rope is good?
I want to start skipping to improve my endurance whilst playing badminton, but Im guessing thats the same principle as in boxing, so like skipping properly anywhere from 15 – 45 mins. I’m not sure what kind of skipping rope to get as to me they all look pretty much the same.
Theres speed ropes which I don’t really know how good they are, as 1) they’re just pvc rubber, 2) all the different brands look the same so how would I know which one to get
Also there are convential leather roped, skipping ropes; but are these better or worse for training with?
I did see the Reebok speed rope for only £2.85 including delivery, but a part of me thinks this will turn out really cheap and break easily.

Any recommendations on the exact products/ brands to get as Im looking at quality ropes, at the moment Im interested in Gold’s Gym Speed Rope, or would the speed rope pro be better in the long run as its got a better quality.
Speed roping is an INCREDIBLY intensive workout. Unless you’re in really good shape, you would be better off with a regular rope- You will be able to use it at a slower pace.
If you are working out inside, then a leather rope would be your best bet- it’s a little heavier than plastic or nylon, so its easier to keep a steady rhythm. If you’ll be jumping outside, a beaded rope will last longer.
For the best quality, look for boxing brands like Everlast. Also, if you play badminton, you should take a look at ropes with weighted handles. They will increase wrist and forearm strength and improve your game.
