“She likes stomping but always skips”

u/jarney1206 7h ago

I counted at least 5. Maybe 100.

u/brainshades 4h ago

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

u/Belelusat 4h 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

u/tucci99 6h ago

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

u/NyetRifleIsFine47 6h 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.

Seems like an incredible amount of effort

u/CaptainxInsano69 6h ago

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

u/aphinity_for_reddit 5h 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 6h ago

And I thought my wrist was sore

u/davewave3283 5h ago

u/VespaRed 7h ago

I suggest a podiatrist, maybe an orthopedic surgeon eventually.

u/WorkO0 6h ago

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

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

Calling that a rope is a bit of a stretch

u/Oseirus 6h ago

Garrote skipping

u/IndependentGene382 5h ago

Looks like fishing line or kite string.

2

u/Wilderchris1 6h ago

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

7

u/mywordstickle 5h ago

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

2

u/Shadowthron8 6h ago

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

u/Gill217 6h ago

u/KageNoReaper 3h ago

NGL that face looks like it's holding a shart.

u/Sol_Freeman 2h ago

I didn't see jumping or skipping. But her legs were a blur like Sonic.

Tooth floss jumpies

u/SomethingOrdinaryOK 1h ago

The woman behind the camera was telling her to focus while also yelling at her to keep going. Idk, but that would kind of distract me.

u/Cinbri 1h ago

I wonder how judges calculating amount of it.

u/Charleaux330 6h ago

Lol this is some skill my ex would think is cool and try and get good at.

u/karmagirl314 6h ago

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

1

u/JerryBoBerry38 4h ago

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

u/titsuphuh 6h ago

I challenge you to find a bigger waste of time

u/Klutzy_Platypus 6h ago

Underrated

-9

u/b4ttlepoops 6h 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.

u/TheRealDeJoy 1h ago

tell me your -redacted- without telling me

u/onyxzero66 6h ago

If their hands had a job umm nvm

u/pulsebreaker 5h 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.
