Classic Thai rope
I am 5"11 and didn't find this rope too long. Most ropes like it, typically found in Muay Thai gyms, are more or less the same length. By holding the handles farther from your torso it hits your shoulders and traps, which is the intention of a heavy rope anyways! It has great speed-to-weight balance, which gives you creativity with skip patterns, speed, etc. Highly recommended.

Exactly what I was looking for
I spent some time online trying to find a good, highly rated, Muay Thai jump rope and this it it. Well constructed, bearings in handles spin easily, and priced fairly. The rope is adjustable following the instructions posted by another user. I'm 5'11" and this rope was long for me so I removed about 7" using the aforementioned technique.
This rope will definitely provide you with a great workout and keep your heart rate elevated. I use it prior to working out and before Muay Thai classes.
I would definitely purchase again. The only reason I rated 4 stars instead of 5 is because the manufacturer didn't make the rope easily adjustable.

Too long, but adjustable
I saw some other reviews saying this was too long and that it is fused to the handles. It is a very tight fit in the bearings and I almost gave up. Looking at it I thought some heat would help stretch and soften the rope so I could pull it through the bearing, that is all that was needed. I only took off about 3-4 inches.
To adjust the length: Unscrew handle and pull out white plastic and bearing together. Carefully heat the rope next to bearing using a hair dryer for less than 1 minute. Using a pair of pliers grab the short end of the rope and pull while holding the white plastic and bearing, suggest to use gloves or towel to not burn hands. Should not be too hot but will be very warm to the touch. Heat and pull only short lengths at a time and recheck correct length by putting back together and using jump rope. Repeat until proper adjustment is set. Cut end of rope about 1 inch from bearing when done.

Nice Old School Rope
If you're used to wire thin, high spin, dbl under ropes , this one will get your attention.
Handles spin better than expected.
Tape contact area if you want it to last.

Nice compromise between a speed and heavy rope
I like the weight of this rope. It has enough substance to spin with authority on each revolution, but not so much weight that it becomes effectively a strange weight training exercise.
I was expecting it to be much heavier based on the reviews. But it falls pretty much in the mid-weight category that I have experienced before with another rope I bought years ago (that one was called a 'weighted speed rope'). I felt some lactic acid buildup in the forearms from spinning it for my 3 minute rounds, but nothing much more than that. I would not consider this a 'heavyrope' - which I had and used extensively before and had mixed feelings about its usefulness.
My only criticism is that I would have liked an 8 ft version - not because I'm short - but because I can spin a shorter rope more quickly with less of the rope touching the ground on each revolution. I tied one knot each handle and it seemed to do the trick though not an ideal solution (sort of like having to roll up cuffs on pants that are too long).

best conditioning jump rope hands down!!!!
As a personal trainer of 20 years, an amateur bodybuilder, and fitness enthusiast of the last 25 years of my life, I have always wanted a great way to warm-up before a lift. I can't stand being stationary and I wanted something that would pump me up before hitting my routine. I have used all styles of jump ropes, speed ropes, the 'cadillacs of jump ropes" and so on, but this is by far the most durable and most rockstar conditioning rope I have ever used. I get stopped by at least a few people a week asking me where I got my rope, if they can try it out because they see how well it works in action. The weight is awesome, it flows, and when you get this thing moving, you will feel a burn that really pushes you to try harder. I have had this thing for about 2 years now, never had to grease the handles once and I jump rope before every single workout I do. So, that's about 700 workouts with no issues, you can't really argue with that fact. I searched forever trying to find the right rope and now I know which one is the best. If you want conditioning and you aren't into fancy tricks or whatever, this is the last rope you will ever need, trust me!!!

Not Adjustable
Just what I was looking for in terms of weight and performance. The only draw back is that 9ft is too long for a woman 5'7 and I can not shorten the rope as it is fused into the ball bearing. I wish it came in an 8ft length.
