Subject: [Jump Rope] i need jump rope basics

hi, i'm new to the group and new to skipping. I'm not into becoming a jump rope athlete or competitive, I'm way too old for that (34). I'm a male and didn't really skip much as a kid. I'm just interested in getting some of the basics to use skipping as a cardio excercise to burn some fat. My sister in law gave me a jump rope, i think it's a really good one, the handles are weighted and the rope itself looks like a rubbery, plastic kind of material, the brand is called "Weigh to Jump" (that's what it says on the handle. The basics I'm interested in knowing is: 1) is it good to do sets and then reps. what's a good starting point? (for example 100 jumps, 3 reps). How long in between reps? 2) what style of jumping is best, both feet, one foot at a time, alternating...? How do the boxers do it? and any other advice would be helpful. thanks. --David (from Toronto, Canada)

I am really happy for Ben on his records, however I would like to point out that Tori Boggs from River Valley Skippers in the USA broke our US National record and apparently the world record on June 25th and again on June 26th with a score of 960 steps and 480 count in the US Age Group Championships and the US Grand National Championships at Disney World.

In the 3 minutes Endurance Ben broke a second World Record by scoring 438 (which is a total of 876 steps)!

One Question I have often asked FISAC.
Why arent Jumprope records officially maintained by Guinness Records
(or any body which officially maintains all world records)

Final date for registration European Masters 2005 September 1st, 2006
November 27, 2005

As you all know by now, the next European Masters will be held November 5th 2006 in Roskilde (Denmark).

Last week we were informed by DGF that the final date for registration can be as late as September 1st, 2006.
The date for final payment is set to September 15th.
Knowing this, and the decision to have 5 skippers per gender per country, the registration-forms were set on-line as of today.

We will keep you updated, so come and visit the website regularly!

Maximum participant European Masters 2005 increased to 5
November 24, 2005

Somebody remembered a communication within the ERSO-Rules Committee about the number of participants per country for the European Masters 2006; FISAC-IRSF has set it's maximum participants in the updated FISAC-IRSF-Rulebook to three. And although ERSO is following as much as possible, this was one of the exceptions for ERSO. After checking the ERSO-Rulebook, the ERSO-Rules Committee was consulted and asked for their decision.

Indeed there has been made a mistake in updating the ERSO-Rulebook on July 31st, 2005. Unintentionally the section about the maximum number of skippers per gender for the Masters wasn't updated.

Since there has not yet been any qualifications in Europe, it is the decision of ERSO to correct this mistake as of Thursday November 24th, 2005. Also the ERSO-Rulebook was updated with this in [CHAPTER VIII - ERSO - Adaptations] and set online.

This means that each country can send 5 male and 5 female skippers to the European Masters 2006.

Dear Friends,

There is one man in the world we all know: "Mr.C. a.k.a. Mr Richard Cendali"

And yes, we all hate him because he ruined our lives by getting us involved in "his" stupid rope! We don't have money anymore, no more family-life, no more spare-time, just nothing then a stupid rope.

And it's all HIS FAULT!!!!!!!!

Nevertheless, I ask you a favour:

Mr "C" becomes Wednesday November 16th 60 years old. Let surprise him by sending from all over the world a little e-mail, song, card,.... to him next wednesday.

Yes we hate him, but at the same time, we love him.

his e-mailaddress is :
Skipit_coach@...

surprise him on Wednesday November 16th. And don't mention the 60, let's say 40 is old enough!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can I count on you????

Thanks in advance.

Geert Hoste

ps: If you want to pass this message to others, well....GO FOR IT! I realy hope his mailbox get overloaded with 500 mails!

The European Championships in Loughborough was a record-breaking event!!
August 2, 2005

Yesterday the records-page of FISAC-IRSF was updated. All Freestyle records are removed because of the subjectivity in these records. But what a record-breaking day it has been!!!! In total 5 World and 7 European records were sharpened.

Single Rope Speed Relay:
The Hungarian team of the Female Juniors set a NEW World (and also European) Record!!! Exactly one year after the previous record was set by a Hungarian Female team at the World Championships in Australia. In 4 times 30 seconds the set a score of 351, which is a total number of 702 steps; an average of 5,85 steps per second!!!
Also the Belgian Male Seniors team set a new record. The four skippers scored 329 in the 120 seconds.

Double Under Speed Relay:
The Hungarian Female Senior team sharpened the World and European record, making it 340.
The Juniors from Belgian set the record in the Open division to 327.

Double Dutch Pairs Speed:
By smashing the World record (set by USA on July 24th, 2005) from 347 to 386 the Female Senior team from Hungary proved that it will soon be possible to cross the 400-border for this event!!
The senior Male team from Belgium was just 18 steps behind the Hungarian women; but their score of 377 gave them also a new World and European Record.

Double Dutch Speed Relay:
The Belgian Seniors in the Open division put 356 on the clickers, making it a new European record.

Knowing that several records were sharpened by Junior-teams, it shows that the limits have not yet been reached in Rope Skipping. And seeing how fast skippers move their feet and ropes: The need for very fast and accurate counting is more and more a must and not just a luxury.

ERSO goes FISAC-IRSF...
July 31, 2005

Last week in Loughborough the members of ERSO gave their OK at the General Assembly to follow the FISAC-IRSF-Rulebook and adapt it to be used for future competitions as of August 1st 2005.
The adaptation will be almost 100%. The differences will be communicated in the Appendix that will be added to the FISAC-IRSF-Rulebook. Before we are going to publish this we are going to wait until August 5th because of the E-mail we received today:

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Dear members,

As you know, the new 4-level skill-list will be available on August 1st 2005. But we received today a full-worked-out proposal from an international group who was at the European Camp in Loughborough.
We want to take this proposal serious and let it have the proper procedure. Unfortunately, this takes some time.

Therefore, I want to inform you that we won't be ready August 1st, but we'll try for August 5th. A few days later won't change your life completely, I guess.
Whatever happens, you will be informed by an FISAC-newsflash, when the new skill-list will be available on our website and in the rulebook.
Thanks for your understanding.

Kind regards
Geert Hoste
executive director FISAC-IRSF
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

This means that the adapted Skilllist, the FISAC-IRSF-Rulebook and the ERSO-Appendix will be available on the website as of August 10.

What do 'MP3', 'Program EC & BOT', 'Swimming', 'Ropes' and 'Skills' have in common with each other?
July 06, 2005

Loughborough 2005 of course!!!!

MP3
Send in your music in MP3-format to have a secured backup at the EC. You can also give your competition-CD on the day of arrival or at least the day before competition, so we can make a copy of it!!!

Program EC & BOT
Sunday, July 24th: EC
09:00 Official opening
09:15 Speed for Juniors
10:00 Freestyles on two fields (one field SR and one field DD)
12:00 Ends of EC for Juniors

14:00 Speed for Seniors
15:00 Freestyles Seniors on two fields (same as for the Juniors)
17:30 End of EC
17:45 Speed events BOT
18:30 Medal ceremony Juniors & Seniors
Monday, July 25th: BOT

09:00 Freestyles Cup & Juniors
10:30 Freestyles Novice & Seniors
12:00 Medal ceremony

Swimming
Loughborough has an Olympic size swimming pool available!! This will be part of the program for everyone on the Monday evening. So everyone: Bring your swimming costumes!!

Ropes
Every camp all sessions in Camp all disciplines are being taught...
Every camp all skippers and coaches know that they must use their own ropes...
Every camp always ropes from others are being used...
BRING YOUR OWN ROPE(S)!!!!
We can't and won't guarantee that there will be 'rentable' ropes during camp...

Skills
As all competitive skipper, coaches and NRSO's know: FISAC-IRSF will change their skill-list from the 3-Level-system (Basic, Intermediate, Advanced) into the 4-Level-system.
This will (most likely) be the same list as ERSO has on it's page, because as far as we know this is the most complete and updated skill-list. Take a loot at the list at the ERSO-site and go to [Skills]. Or use: http://www.erso.org/skills.htm!!
Here you can see that this list hasn't been updated since January 11th 2001. That this list has an awful lot of skills that are levelled to high according to today’s standard of skills of the skipper and the materials being used.
For instance: 2.127 E.B., a.k.a. Sailor, Split Cross, Front/Back Cross. Can we still consider this an Intermediate skill? Knowing that one can learn this within half an hour; specially with long handles?!?! And have you seen that numerous skills are not yet even mentioned in the list? Because skippers, coaches, NRSO's and Rules committees had other priorities then taking care of this...
Then why bring this to your attention?! During Loughborough ERSO will come up with it's proposal(s) to the FISAC-IRSF-Rules committee to update the skill-list as of August 1st, 2005. EVERYONE can send in their proposal to Judging@.... In Loughborough we will work with the proposals with a selected team to get the most complete and up-to-date-list there is. We will also try to video register all new skills as well as the missing skills.
So grab this opportunity to influence the growth of our Sport!!

We are a Jumprope Federation ... not Boxing.
Beats me ... looks like a prank.

ERSO NewsFlash

Eu-Rope-Skip Junior and Senior Staff
Februay 23, 2005

Dear Board-members, Coaches, JuniorStaffers and skippers,

After last NewsFlash (dated February 18) several skippers and coaches E-mailed BRSA or ERSO with the question on how to become a Novice-, Junior- or SeniorStaffer for this years Eu-Rope-Skip. Because of this we publish the procedure.

What are some of the qualifications?!
- (Almost) perfect speaking English
- Coaching skills and experience(s)
- Technical skills
More information is available at: the Matrix.

If you think your answers to the three previous questions are positive, then there are several procedures:
1) You are interested as a person and you think you are qualified enough to teach Level 1-2 or Level 3. In this case you E-mail directly to Novice-Staff-2005@... or Junior-Staff-2005@.... Best of course would be to add your references to this E-mail. ERSO and BRSA will then contact the NRSO (= National Rope Skipping Organization) to ask their opinion about you. Not only technical and teaching skills, but also financial standing (= no debts to the NRSO).
2) Your NRSO thinks you are capable, as well as available to be a Junior- or SeniorStaffer. Your NRSO will contact you directly and ERSO or BRSA directly.
3) ERSO or BRSA thinks you are capable of fulfilling the job. Then we will contact you first. This will be done in the week of March 1st! And when you reply with a positive answer, then we will contact your NRSO.

4) If you think you have more skills and experience then the average, then you can apply as Senior-Staffer. For this you mail to Senior-Staff-2005@....

If everything is positive, then you will be added to the list, which shows the most up-to-date numbers of Staffers and participants to this years event. This list will be on the ERSO-website, as well as in a regularly send NewsFlash. Just as we did with Paris 2003!

Why should you do it?
- Because you don't earn any money; except that you won't have to pay your food and housing from 23rd to 28th July. (So for you who can not calculate that fast: GBP 225.00 for (max) 20 hours teaching = GBP 11.25 = Euro 16.61 per hour...)
- Because you will be skipping again; and that's something you are already doing the whole year through.
- Because you meet others; but then you'll have to talk at least English.
- THAT'S why you should do it!!!! Can you think of better reasons?!?!?
Sure you can!!! Spain will be for the first time in ERSO-history present with teams and skippers!!! Australians will join in again. As will American and Canadian skippers and coaches. But also skippers from all over Europe will be present again!
So don't hesitate and contact us!!

Just one fast suggestion. Look at the smaller airlines and book your ticket now!! For instance: http://www.Thomsonfly.com. Amsterdam - Coventry for just under Euro 70.00!!

Dear all,

Last week Outlook decided to minimize my Outlook-Mail-file from over 600 Mb to 0 Kb……

This means that I had to re-install my most recent backup, which was done early June 2004.

Why am I telling you this?!

1) Make back-ups weekly!!! It doesn’t take too much time (as a matter of fact: I learned last week there is an automated piece of software to take care of this…)!!

2) Any communication between you and me between then and last week is lost!! If there is ANYTHING I should have answered but didn’t, then this is the time again to provide me with that data!!

Thanks for you time!

Eric

AUDITIONS 2005!

Dear colleagues, December 29, 2004

Cirque du Soleil is now casting roles in its ten current productions and upcoming creations such as its sixth resident show - an unprecedented live theatre production celebrating the musical legacy and extraordinary experience of The Beatles. We wish to inform you that in February 2005, we will be holding acrobatics & circus arts auditions in London.

In April 2005, some 60 candidates hailing from around the globe, with backgrounds in various sports and circus disciplines, will be invited to the General Training Program.

With the number of shows growing, you can easily imagine how many new artists we need to fill new roles, fill permanent or temporary replacements, play back-up positions, etc.

Cirque du Soleil Casting team is specifically seeking:

Artistic and rhythmic gymnastics, acrosport, trampoline, tumbling, diving, synchronised swimming, extreme sports (BMX, skateboard, rollerblade, etc.), martial arts, stunts, magic, circus arts, contortion, skipping, juggling, urban acrobatic disciplines (hip-hop, urban movement, acrobatic dancers etc.).

Since 1984, Cirque du Soleil has carved out a special niche for itself in the world of performing arts. Through a mix of street performance and circus arts, dance, theatre, music and singing, Cirque du Soleil has given life to a magical new universe. With its original music and performances, Cirque du Soleil always tries to challenge the very limits of the human body and spirit. Each of its shows is built around its own unique concept with music played by live bands.

Do you know any talented individuals interested in joining Cirque du Soleil? Feel free to tell them about us. We are always eager to discover new artists. You will find attached the audition notice available for posting.

Please contact us at any time for additional information. We would be glad to answer your questions.

For further information, feel free to visit our Internet site at www.casting.cirquedusoleil.com/2005

If you wish not to receive any other information regarding Cirque du Soleil auditions, please send us an e-mail at casting@...

Happy Holidays!

The acrobatic scouting team

Cirque du Soleil
