Usually I'm all for tities bouncing up and down, but this is just ridiculous.

It is the "Everyone is special" generations jump rope. They can't bare to fail and get the rope caught on their foot.

I don't get the concept... why are you trying to skip a rope that doesn't exist? Why not just do rhythmic jumping? or even just arhythmic jumping, aka jumping around.

Because you can't sell people a product for simply jumping around.

This product is everything that's wrong with the way the majority of this country tries to lose weight. Learning to jump rope isn't THAT hard and, what makes jumping rope really hard is keeping your rhythm and timing as you get progressively more tired. Your punishment for not keeping proper time is getting caught on the rope. This stupid gadget doesn't punish you at all.

It's pathetic that people fall for these gimmicky products all the time and, over their lifetime, probably spend more money with worse results than a gym membership.

lol, I would venture a guess that a big chunk of gym membership is just pure profit since people lose interest and never go again yet don't/can't cancel.

Yes, why do you even need this product? Why not use light weights, or something you can find in your house? Why bother holding anything at all?
