How to Do the Jump Rope Crossover (Crisscross) for Beginners

Описание: In this video, I will teach you how to do the jump rope crossover trick for beginners.

The most popular jump rope trick.

The crossover is a fun jump rope trick to do. It does not require a high level of experience to do and will make your workout so much funner.

In this video, we will cover 4 principles that will help you execute the criss-cross.

#1: The Rope You're Using (00:58)
I usually recommend starting using a freestyle rope whenever trying to do the crossover. A freestyle rope has longer handles then regular ropes which will give you extra reach for the tricks.

The jump rope I use is an EliteSRS Freestyle rope.

#2: How To Cross (02:09)
The best and most fluid way to cross is to keep your hands straight and to simply rotate your shoulders.
A good width for the cross is when your upper forearms touch. You should feel a slight flex to your chest when crossing correctly.

#3: When To Uncross (03:15)
A common reflex is to rush the uncross. Take your time... A good level to uncross is when the rope reaches eye level.

#4: Raise One Foot Crossing (03:45)
Raising one foot off the ground while crossing will give the rope more space to pass under you. This will reduce your chances of tangling.
Raising one foot while crossing might not feel very natural at first, but practice will make it feel better.
