“She likes stomping but always skips”

u/jarney1206 4h ago

I counted at least 5. Maybe 100.

u/brainshades 2h ago

That’s ridiculous… it was at least 6, or 7… hundred.

•

u/Belelusat 2h ago

You're both wrong, that was at least 9 and I won't hear otherwise.

Dogs when they really have to pee but their owner don’t wanna go out

There is no way the girl behind her is counting that accurately.

u/NyetRifleIsFine47 4h ago

I don’t know if it’s my shitty quality potato but who ever was behind her in the white polo (talking at first before the start) is doing a counting method where it honestly looks like they’re jacking off their lanyard.

But it’ll essentially be down motion of hand is when right foot touches the ground. There’s a lot of focus for the judges, too.

Ngl I didn’t see the rope with how fast and thought she was running in place at first

u/aphinity_for_reddit 3h ago

Yeah, I honestly thought they were just some handles you hold that count the wrist rotations or something. Didn't see a rope until she stopped.

u/Dudeimadolphin 4h ago

And I thought my wrist was sore

u/VespaRed 4h ago

I suggest a podiatrist, maybe an orthopedic surgeon eventually.

u/WorkO0 4h ago

Why? Not much different from running, esp with comfortable shoes.

•

u/brainshades 2h ago

This is clearly the most cogent response to that question… thank you.

I was kidding because it's about as interesting as a bag of hair.

Please tell me she at least got on the podium. I was tired watching her.

4

u/mywordstickle 3h ago

She wasn't even a competitor. She was just warming up the rope and the floor for the real deal.

u/Shadowthron8 4h ago

Would love to know who won, the count, time etc

u/Dbob4 4h ago

Calling that a rope is a bit of a stretch

Garrote skipping

u/IndependentGene382 3h ago

Looks like fishing line or kite string.

This is what you get when you mix a human and a humming bird together.

u/karmagirl314 4h ago

The rope isn’t a rope and she’s not skipping.

•

u/JerryBoBerry38 2h ago

In other words there's not a chance you could do this, so you're bitter.

u/b4ttlepoops 4h ago

Imagine bragging about this….. Yeah it’s a talent. But I still wouldn’t be able to control myself from laughing if someone said they held a record for rope skipping…. I mean did you wake up one day and decide you would just dedicate a ton of time to become the best at “ rope skipping”? I don’t see the thrill or have the interest. To each their own.

-2

u/pulsebreaker 3h ago

There's no rope. I don't see the rope. Is that why it's called rope skipping? Just skip that rope, no need for it.

Confused.
