I remember kids at school trying this on the playground, but it's quite a skill to turn the two ropes in different directions at the same time, let alone skipping in them.
I do remember the hours I spent skipping when I was a child, and there was always a big rope on the go at playtime at school. It's less popular now which is a shame as it kept us all fit.0 -
Bet you can't do it now Health and Safety When I was teaching I remember a couple of Dinner Ladies bringing ropes into school and the kids,boys and girls,having a whale of a time0

They encourage skipping at my daughters school as it is great exercise. Even my Son used to skip when he was at the school.
I like anything skillful like advanced skipping, cheer leading, acrobatics street dancing.

It's astonishing to watch, I remember seeing a group of girls from Harlem (USA) on Blue Peter, yonks ago! Wow, the complexity, the skill - it was breathtaking. I like watching boxers skip too - I only ever managed the standard rope over your head and jump through routine. :oops: DDHave you got the despatches? No, I always walk like this. Eddie Braben0
