Description
Overview
The Avaro Skipping Rope (Nylon Cord & Wooden Handle) is a 2.7 m rope aimed at schools and fitness sessions. The nylon cord is light and quick through the air, and the wooden handles are solid in the hand for repeated skipping. It is a general PE and playground rope rather than a competition speed rope.
Skipping is one of the cheapest fitness activities a school can run, so most buyers order several. The same length is also sold as the Skipping Rope 2.7m set of 6 when you need a class quantity in one line.
Key benefits
- Turns smoothly and quickly thanks to the light nylon cord.
- Firm grip from the wooden handles during long sessions.
- 2.7 m length gives room for most school-age skippers.
- Weighs about 0.18 kg, easy to store in a PE bag.
- Backed by the Avaro range, designed in NZ.
Who it's for
Suits PE teachers running fitness circuits, playground gear boxes and clubs warming up. Buy the single rope to top up a set or test the length before ordering more.
If 2.7 m is too long for younger children, the same range has a Skipping Rope 1.8m set of 6 and a Skipping Rope 2.4m set of 6. Long ropes for group skipping are covered by the 4.8 m set.
Sizing guide
Rope length should match the skipper's height: standing on the middle of the cord, the handles should reach roughly to the armpits. The 2.7 m rope covers most older primary and secondary students; choose a shorter sibling for small children and the 4.8 m rope for group skipping with turners at each end.
Care, safety and set-up
Hang the rope by its handles or coil it loosely so the nylon cord does not kink. Keep the wooden handles dry between sessions and wipe them down if they get grubby. Orders generally dispatch the same or next business day.
Frequently asked questions
Can I adjust the length?
The record does not list an adjustable cord, so buy the length you need. For odd lengths, the Cut-to-length Skipping Rope (Price/Per Metre) lets you choose exactly.
Is this sold singly or in sets?
This listing is a single rope. Sets of six are listed separately in the skipping ropes category.
Do schools get quantity pricing?
Yes. Quantity pricing applies on many lines, and you can request a quote for a full class set.
