The Challenge
Chinese Jump Rope is no ordinary "rope skipping" game. "Enders"
hold an elastic rope while a "jumper" jumps the rope in special ways. The
challenge? To jump successfully!
RULES
A Jumper jumps until a jumping mistake or "miss" is made.
-A miss can be made if a jumper jumps "out" instead of "in".
-A miss is also made if a jumper touches the rope incorrectly
while jumping the game.
After a miss, the jumper trades positions with an ender.
The jumper starts from the very beginning of the game on the next turn.
The Basic Start Position
Every Chinese Jump Rope game begins with the rope held in basic position.
Enders:
1. Face each other and step inside the rope.
2. Place the rope around the ankles.
3. Step back until the rope is stretched.
Two parallel jumping lines, about 12 inches (30cm)apart, are stretched between the enders.
The jumper stands outside the rope, ready to play.
