Could I use this rope on a concrete surface? I noticed many comments were that they rope was used indoors. Thanks

Use it anywhere! I only use it outdoors. It does beat up the rope a little bit and using it indoors keeps it in better shape but I would rather workout outdoors any day!! Check out YouTube "battle rope workouts" to get a great variety of exercises!! What a great workout!!

Short answer is yes. Further, depending on the finish of the "concrete", it could be the ideal surface. Interior concrete finishes like those found in garages or warehouse floors are really not abrasive. Blacktop is typically not very abrasive. Asphaults vary. Exterior concretes vary, but some can be very abrasive.That said, rope of this sort only comes in three common varieties: poly dac, cotton, or manila. Each has pros and cons. If the concrete is your primary concern, this rope should be as good as the next in that aspect. Also good for outdoors because of moisture resistance...for more details, see my review.

I use the rope on all surfaces, mainly concrete. I haven't had any problems with wear or fraying. My ropes have picked up a little dirt though. I am a certified strength trainer and really have my clients put these ropes through the ringer.

Concrete will increase wear and tear. Smooth surface/grass is easier on it I use mine in the back yard.

Sorry; we didn't use concrete. We stuck the pole into the ground about 4 inches and wired it to an existing metal fence post. Been doing it that way for years.

We have not used this pony outside on concrete but I see no reason why it would not work on concrete. Our grandchildren (we purchased two ponies) love their little horses and they work wonderfully well.

I actually ended up returning these because I was going to use them on wood, but once I received it, the product said indoor only. I can't say for sure that they would work on concrete.

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.

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.

Most possibly no. I have tried it on smooth surfaces and it successfully held up to several lbs, however, concrete at its smoothest type would still have tiny holes which prevent the glue to work. If what you are gluing is not very heavy it might work by applying several layers of glue.

it probably won't tear for a while.. I've used it on rough concrete and it has a few scratches on the rope.. I'd say avoid using it on concrete, but if you must, it should hold up

I have mine on concrete, I'm sure it would make a mark on drywall. I would recommend having it pushing on a board or plate of some kind to increase tension without pushing through the ceiling.

You can use on the concrete as long you have a tarp underneath the bounce house. You can use fatigue mat or interlocking squares under neath it as well for good padding so the kids do not get hurt. You can tie the bounce house to anything heavy so it will not move around.

It might be hard enough, but I would be afraid you would lose too much bounce, as it will likely deaden the jump, Also, the mat is relatively tall, so the rope would probably catch too much. Good luck!

Hi , What I do with my jump rope is put a mat under my feet if I am jumping on concrete. That solves it. If the concrete is smooth then no problem, but a mat is best. Hope this helps. MK

Yep, you can use for indoor use. It won't damage anything because it goes like 2 mph I believe.

I haven't a clue about using it on concrete. I use it on wood to seal the surface so water doesn't penetrate and stain the wood. You have to reapply it as it wears away. It is perfect for cutting boards and butcher block surfaces.

I would not play with it on cement. It will tear up the leather pretty quickly. Also, this is an outdoor ball. You can play with this ball inside, but it plays differently. Generally, you would use an indoor ball inside and outdoor ball outside. If the level of competition is pretty low, it would do.

I would NOT recommend it for outdoor use as it is not treated lumber and would probably become warped or damaged from wet weather. Everything in the guide shows for indoor use but nothing states it is only for indoor use. It is very sturdy, but do not know if it would hold up outdoors.

The term is "rappelling" and no, this rope is not made for technical climbing. You should use only ropes bought at outdoor stores made specifically for climbing or caving for rappelling or doing any rope work involving body weight and your life.
