Maintenance and Care
Surface Usage: For the longest lifespan, these ropes should be used on rubber flooring or a jump rope mat. While the 3.2mm PVC cable is more durable than standard speed cables, use on abrasive surfaces like concrete will eventually cause the coating to wear and the steel core to break.
Cleaning: The nylon handles and PVC coating are non-absorbent. Clean with standard gym wipes or a damp cloth.
Storage: We recommend using the Rogue Wall Mount Jump Rope Hanger to prevent kinking and keep sizes organized.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can I adjust the length of these ropes?
A: No. These ropes are fixed to specific lengths for simplicity and durability. If you need an adjustable version, please see the Rogue SR series.
Q: Are these ropes good for double-unders?
A: Yes! The 3.2mm cable is slightly heavier than a standard speed cable, which provides better feedback, helping beginners and intermediates time their double-unders more effectively.
Q: Why are they sold in sets (Alpha, Bravo, Charlie)?
A: These sets are designed for CrossFit affiliates and school programs to provide a balanced variety of sizes for entire classes at a discounted rate.
Q: What is the difference between a bushing and a bearing rope?
A: Bearing ropes (like the SR-1) are designed for maximum speed and "freewheeling" spin. Bushing ropes (like these) are designed for durability and a more consistent, controlled rotation that is less susceptible to dust and debris.
