ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for providing rotation to a portion of a loop of rope by which an individual can jump rope alone, and without holding the rope, and in which the rope loops near the ground so that a jumper may jump over it, then rotate over the head of the jumper for another passage close to the ground, wherein a feature is a method for adjusting small weights on the rope to alter the characteristics of the loop; and safety provisions are made so that the rope will not become entangled with the user and cause injury. The apparatus comprises a stand with a fixed swivel arrangement to hold one end of a rope and a rotating device for the other end of the rope to cause the rotating motion of the loop and an adjustment can be made to accommodate different configurations of the loop as it passes beneath the jumpers feet and over the jumpers head.
