Excellent summary of some of the finer points of the double under.

I hit PRs this month up to 72 unbroken double unders. I've been flailing around at under 50 double unders for 3 or 4 years, trying to crack the DU code. The last obstacle - after getting rid of wrong rope, no technique, and no clear concept of what a DU is - was sorting out how to properly spin the rope without tension in my shoulders (deltoids). Broke through that barrier this month, and I have no idea how! Except - I was practicing the fundamentals of DUs with more consistency and discipline.
7 years in - it's either that I'm a slow learner or there's really always something to be learned.
