Dunno about fit - after watching that I'm shattered!

Absolutely amazing, who would dream that skipping could be like that!

Oh I see they're doing the same routine as I do each morning before breakfast.

...seriously though, that was fantastic and great to see the crowd really getting into it too  ;D

We used to do quite interesting types of skipping at school.  But that group seem to have taken it to a different level altogether.  

They don't seem to do it in schools now.

No sign of childhood obesity in that lot! An incredible display. I shuddered to think what would have happened on occasion if they did't get the split-second timing right. No wonder those sailors were cheering!

yes we also did great tricks but nothing that awe inspiring :o.

my daughters school won't let them skip with the school's ropes if its wet, considering we are in Britain the chances of dry days are normally not in their favour ::) >:(. at least they won't take her rope off of her, so she uses it off and on to keep herself warm during recess and the lunch breaks in the winter (sometimes the other girls games are boring according to her ::)).
