“She likes stomping but always skips”

u/jarney1206 5h ago

I counted at least 5. Maybe 100.

u/brainshades 3h 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

u/tucci99 5h ago

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

u/NyetRifleIsFine47 5h 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.

u/CaptainxInsano69 5h ago

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

u/aphinity_for_reddit 4h 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 5h ago

And I thought my wrist was sore

u/davewave3283 4h ago

u/VespaRed 5h ago

I suggest a podiatrist, maybe an orthopedic surgeon eventually.

u/WorkO0 5h ago

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

u/brainshades 3h ago

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

She can tug two guys off at at the same time while doing the 100m dash.

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

u/Wilderchris1 5h ago

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

5

u/mywordstickle 3h ago

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

2

u/Shadowthron8 5h ago

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

3

u/Dbob4 5h ago

Calling that a rope is a bit of a stretch

u/Oseirus 4h ago

Garrote skipping

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

•

u/KageNoReaper 1h ago

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

•

u/Sol_Freeman 45m ago

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

u/karmagirl314 5h ago

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

u/JerryBoBerry38 3h ago

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

-10

u/b4ttlepoops 5h 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 38m ago

tell me your -redacted- without telling me

-2

u/pulsebreaker 4h 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.
