Rope jumping is one of the healthier activities that one can get involved in when trying to shed some kilos. JumpSnap has taken the rope out from the traditional jump rope by including a couple of weighted balls that spin on the handles, giving you the impression that there is a rope. There's no voodoo magic involved here, nor some high tech feature but plain old weighted balls. This is a great device for those who want to get their exercise in without leaving any scratches behind on the floor or ceiling. The JumpSnap comes with an LCD display that shows you the number of jumps, a calorie counter, a timer, a fitness target, among other functions. At $60, it surely is an extravagant purchase.
