Just a Jump Rope? No way! Velites Earth 2.0 is a complete fitness system to get you fit in no time!

Story

 

Time-Tested Training 

Jump roping is not new. Some of the earliest versions of our modern jump rope date back to Egypt in 1600 A.D.! Since then, jump roping has been the training method of choice for elite athletes seeking to improve balance, endurance, coordination and muscular response. But… Why has nobody improved such a practical and effective piece of equipment over the centuries?

 

Fun Fitness For All

Well… we just did! The Earth 2.0 Jump Rope is a completely redesigned and reimaged version of the jump rope that you’ve known and loved. Optimized for accessibility, ease of use and enjoyment – this is the jump rope you’ve been looking for! Remember your childhood when physical activity felt like play? Velites brings the fun back to fitness with the Earth 2.0 Jump Rope. 

Maximum Calorie Burning

Not only is jump roping one of the simplest activities, but it’s also, by far, one of the most effective and efficient ways to burn calories! Jump roping burns more calories than cycling or jogging – all without leaving the comfort of your home.

 

 

 

Albert Einstein once said: “Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.” And the path to fitness is no different! In order to continue progressing toward the stronger, leaner you that you want to be, you need to mix things up! Muscle confusion is the name of the game, and we’ve designed the Earth 2.0 Jump Rope to make it easy. 

With three different cables to choose from and our unique fast switching system, you can go from crushing double unders to extreme muscle building at the drop of a hat.

Achieve maximum speed and agility to conquer the elusive triple under with our 2.5 mm Speed Cable. It’s your best friend when you want to go fast and furious.

 

 

The perfect middle ground – our Standard 4 mm cable is the do-everything champion. Ideal for beginners, the added weight increases feedback and has the perfect speed for getting in the “swing” of jumping. For more advanced athletes looking to increase the difficulty level, the Standard Cable provides additional weight to make high-intensity workouts even more effective.

 

 

 

Want to go beast mode? Our 8 mm Monster Cable will bring the fire! A true heavy cable for developing muscle and pushing your body to the limits!

 

 

 

 

 

Heavy cable not hard enough? You haven’t seen anything yet! If you want to level up the weight, we added another option that allows you to tailor the Earth 2.0 Jump Rope to your goals – handle weights!

 

 

Increase the total weight up to 5X in seconds! Just swap the cable and add the weights.

Take it from 200 grams up to 1 kg! Can your jump rope do that?

Handle weights provide 9 different combinations to dial-in the perfect amount of resistance. Start with 50 grams and work up to 350 grams extra weight per handle! Can you “handle” it?

 

 

 

 

 

 

Tired of jump ropes that can’t take the punishment and fall apart within months? The Earth 2.0 Jump Rope is not your average plastic jump rope. We use rocket-grade aluminum and stainless steel to build our handles, weights, connectors and cable interiors. We’re so confident in our construction that we offer a 2-year guarantee for all handles and weights!

Extra Durable PVC Cover

Weak cables are a common flaw with jump ropes and often become the first part to wear out or fray. Worn cables reduce performance and put you at risk for injury. The Earth 2.0 Jump Rope cable is engineered for maximum durability with a flexible but wear-resistant PVC cover that has been field-tested to hold up against multiple surfaces.

Ferraris are fast, right? So we included an automotive double ball bearing system to ensure the fastest, smoothest rotations possible. You’ll have to feel it to believe it! 

 

 

Months of engineering and testing went into building a high-tech ball bearing system that’s like no other jump rope on the market. And our hard work paid off! Don’t let clanky connections ruin your workout!

 

 

 

 

The Earth 2.0 Jump Rope is super easy to adjust. Follow these easy steps, and you will be training in no time.

All cables are 3,5 m long so they adapt even to NBA players and are easy to cut with regular pliers (even the monster 8 mm cable).

Our objective is your health and fitness. We are a team of engineers, athletes, designers and lovers of products for fitness enthusiasts.

Real problems are our starting point. We observed that athletes were surrounded by products formulated with chemicals, products of bad quality or with a horrible design which couldn’t possibly make them feel healthier at the end of their training.

Athletes are our inspiration. Our starting point is the box: we observe what athletes do and what they need to reach their objectives.

Design Thinking is our tool. We design concepts and create prototypes until we find the best solution to help you achieve your goals.

 

 

 

Relentless testing. All our products have been tested in CrossFit boxes, gyms, competitions and tried out by world champions of different disciplines before launching them onto the market.

Continuous learning is what defines us. We enjoy the process, not only the final outcome. We know it’s important not to be naive about what we can achieve and are willing to learn from our mistakes (we too make mistakes!) And, above all, we are never afraid to overcome new challenges!

Quality is our priority. From day one, quality has been one of our main concerns. Velites is an ISO certified company to make sure that all the products you acquire conform to the highest quality standards right from the development and the production phases.
