The Drag Rope
The Rx Drag rope brings us back to the old school days when jumping rope was really jumping rope.
Description
The Drag Rope has no swivel, no bearing and nothing to make life easier. It’s just two handles and a piece of polypropylene woven rope with an extremely high drag coefficient. The energy output to rotate the Drag rope is exponential to that of a wire speed rope. The result is one of the best workouts you’ll ever experience due to the constant air resistance.
Small - For height ranges 4'8" to 5'2"
Medium - For height ranges 5'3" to 5'8"
Large - For height ranges 5'9" to 6'2"
*Color of rope may vary as a result of the dying process.
*Rope can stretch upwards of 6 inches when in use.
*Tie a knot in the rope near the handle if needed.
Due to the size our heavy ropes does not include a bag. Shop Red Gear Bag or Backpack for easy carry & storage.
