These fire jump ropes are more versatile then they first appear. Along with the flaming version of school yard fun, they can be used as a special prop such as fire limbo, and fire breathing routines.
Our jump ropes are the best quality on the market. We use 5/8” Kevlar rope which will give you more fire and durability then the commonly used 1/2”rope. The ends of our rope have stainless steel fittings that will never rust and prevents any fraying. The grips are made of wood with ball bearings and a comfortable foam grip.
Determining proper the length for you jump rope.
To measure your proper length, stand on the middle of the rope. The tips of the handles should reach your armpits, and when jumping, the rope should just hit the ground as it approaches your feet. Use the following chart as a general guide line for rope length.

Warning: While jump ropes are a lot of fun, they can be very dangerous when on fire. These should never be used by anyone that is not a skilled rope jumper and fire performer. Wrapping a burning rope around your neck or any body part can cause severe burns. We highly recommend protective clothing and a fire resistant hood. Practice extensively before lighting up and be aware that the jump rope will behave differently when on fire. |
