Nylon skipping ropes are a favourite as they tend to be more affordable and easy to clean. The lightness of the ropes makes them perfect for working on your speed, helping you to gain a lightness of foot in the ring that will give you a competitive edge over your competitors.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Leather skipping ropes are another popular choice. Leather is thicker and has a different consistency compared to other types of ropes, meaning that it is less likely to become twisted through use. It is also a durable material. This is a huge advantage when it comes to jump ropes, and you want to make sure your rope won’t break apart after continual contact with the ground. Leather boxing skipping ropes are easy to store in your kit bag and are the perfect option for boxers of all skill levels.</span></p>
