ROPE COMPARISON GUIDE
WHY ROAR INTENSITY ROPES?
"Not all jump ropes are built the same".
While many generic ropes are designed to be inexpensive, Roar Intensity ropes are built with performance, durability, and consistency in mind. This guide breaks down the key differences so you can choose the rope that supports your training, not limits it.

HOW ROAR INTENSITY ROPES COMPARE
Not all jump ropes are built the same. Small differences in materials, construction, and design can significantly impact how a rope feels, performs, and maintains consistency over time. Roar Intensity ropes are engineered with performance, control, and durability in mind, providing a reliable training experience session after session.
Here’s what sets them apart:
- Low-stretch PVC: Provides consistent feedback and a reliable performance feel.
Balanced rope weight: Designed for speed, rhythm, and control not too heavy, not too light. - 4-way locking clip: Keeps the rope securely set and prevents unwanted movement during training.
- Durable handles: Solid ABS construction for a comfortable grip and long-term use.
The table below highlights these differences in detail compared to generic or lower-cost ropes, helping you understand why investing in a premium rope matters for your training.

WHY THIS MATTERS?
Small differences in rope construction can significantly affect how a rope feels during training.
- A low-stretch, well-balanced rope provides consistent feedback, helping maintain rhythm and control from session to session.
- Secure length adjustment prevents movement or slipping, allowing the rope to stay set once dialled in. Over time, thoughtful materials and construction help the rope retain its performance, rather than changing feel with use.
- RI Speed Ropes are built to last and made to improve performance even in those hard training session.
Choosing the right rope isn’t about price, it’s about consistency, control, and long-term training performance. For further questions please feel free to contact us directly at info@roarintensity.com.au
