I would be careful using it on concrete a lot. You can do a criss cross with this rope. Just make sure you have your rope at the correct length. Then cut the remainder off.

Based on my experience using the rope, I would say yes to both. Very durable. If you have the skill to criss-cross, it's a fast rope and will work.

Yes, you are able to use this rope outside and you are able to perform the criss-cross with this rope. I have done it several times. If you are used to a non-wire rope, the feel is different as the rope responds differently as opposed to plastic. The wire is coated with a nice, slick plastic and is very durable. Unless you are using it on some rugged concrete (which is typically not-recommended as concrete does not provide much cushion for your knee), you should be ok with this. If you ARE using it on a concrete surface with a jagged texture, expect some scratches and eventually the rope may give.

Yes, it can be used outside. I only use it on the pavement or blacktop. As for Criss-Cross I dont know. I havent been able to get there yet, but I assume its possible.

I would not recommend using rope. You need some type of steel strand which needs to be as tight as possible between two trees.

You can use the rope outdoors but do not use it directly on concrete as it will destroy the cable very quickly. All cable jump ropes should only be used on a smooth non-abrasive surface. If the only surface you have available is concrete then be sure to put a small sheet of vinyl or a thin floor mat down and jump on that.

This product is for one time use and is not for repelling. It catches you when you are sitting in a tree and fall but not meant for regular use. The rope itself is thick like repel rope but I don't know if its appropriate for that. The ropes seem like a very high quality (I just can't speak to it)

Potentially yes, You have to know that the net comes without the top and bottom supports depicted in the photo accompanying the item. You'll need to rig something up. Ropes are rough nylon designed for outdoors.

We use the same rope we use for skiing. Unfortunately, we've had a lot of trouble with one of the inner tubes. Every time we take it on the lake it gets a hole in it.

You can, but you'll have to cut down the rope it comes with for the top part if needed or use another rope with the length you need.

The outside sheathing on the rope is flexible and fairly coarse. I have not had any problems with knots loosening. This is a utility rope, not intended for climbing, rappeling. etc. I use it mostly when working up high to apply tension to branches to direct their fall after cutting. It is a good general purpose utility rope and I have used it for many things from tree work to camping to raising light loads. As always, use the proper knot for the application. Hope this helps!

No problem using it as a regular jump rope. I get as much of a work out with this light weight rope as I did with my normal weight jump rope. Just get the length right and you're in business.

When you fall, the distance you fall is very important as to how strong the rope needs to be as is the weight of the person falling. To be safe I don't think this would be a good choose for anyone. A much better choose would be a length of climbing rope which you could get at REI by the foot so your cost wouldn't be too high. This is really cord NOT rope.

You shouldn't have any issues using the rope. Cut your rope short, I'm a six foot male and the the rope length I use is about 30 inches. When the rope is shorter you use your legs as well as your arms to help draw the string back. I hope this helps and if you have any other questions ask away.

Hi, the swing and rope are pretty heavy. You would need to hang it from a stud in the ceiling or a support beam of similar. I would not recommend trying to hang this particular swing anyplace inside- ot outside from a sturdy tree branch. Sorry.

I'm using mine indoors but it could be used outdoors as well. I have the room and I don't want the rope to get too dirty for continued use indoors when the weather is poor.

All depends on how you plan to use it- for towing, anchoring, mooring, attaching fenders, ect. Sometimes you just need a length of rope on hand for surprises. It's hard to have too much good rope around. If this is a gift, it is a very nice rope and can be multipurpose.

I think you could. We used a tree, but knotting the rope somehow so it doesn't slide should work.

I have used the wire in the past and now the rope. I like the rope because it does fray like the wire. So far so Good. I would recommend.

Not sure this is the right answer but I don't see why not. The biggest obvious issue would be just like if you were using it as a tow rope would be weight load issue. This rope is rated for two people with a max weight somewhere in the low 300lbs. Don't know exact manu. specs. I would check into that! Hope this helps
