Rope seems overpriced at $24.99. Similar Rope is $4.99 at Walmart.
The following review is my experience which may differ from yours. This rope seems to be vinyl and comes severely kinked since it is packaged very tightly. Even after a few hours of use it still manages to tangle. I have hung it over night hoping it will lose it memory but the next morning it still tangles. It's definitely not worth the $24.99 but more like $5. What seems to be bearings in the handle don't allow the rope to move freely preventing tangles. Not the quality I expected at a premium price. Edit: After using the jump rope for a few more hours it has begun to sort of work and doesn't tangle as much. I had to lubricate the bearings in the handles also. But I did do some more research and found that Walmart sells a very similar Jump Rope (you be the judge) under the Golds Gym Brand for $4.99. I am adding the picture of a side by side comparison. I have found very little difference between the two. They are nearly identical. So I was correct saying the Pulse Rope was not worth $24.99 since the Golds Gym Jump Rope at Walmart is $4.99. Edit: The Pulse Rope finally performs like I would expect but it took quite a while to work out and the Walmart Jump Rope performs just as well. I have done a little more comparing and added a photo of what is inside the handles of both Jump Ropes. The rope itself seems to be the same thickness and the feel of the handles seems to be the same also in my opinion. Is the Pulse Jump Rope worth $24.99 compared to the nearly identical Golds Gym Jump Rope at $4.99 at Walmart? I'll leave that up to you to decide.
