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.

There aren't any exterior loops for rope attachments, but there are three plastic handles on the interior walls... You could conceivably attach a rope there. Not sure it would be safe to pull with any force, though.

Let me start first by saying that the workout itself is one of the toughest I have ever done. I am reasonably fit and strong but the rope workout reminds me of doing wind sprints back in college, except this one is for the whole body. I made a mistake of wrapping the rope around a square shaped patio pole whose fairly sharp edge scuffed the rope after about ten minutes of use. So I would suggest you anchor, or wrap the rope around a tree or even better a rounded metal pole. That way the rope will last a long time. I hope this helps.

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.

NEVER use this rope for actual climbing. Only for utility use. For mountain and wall climbing ropes, use ropes designed for that particular purpose. Yes they are more expensive, but your life is on the line. For more information about climbing ropes, contact a well respected outdoor store. Better yet try finding a local climbing club or indoor wall climbing place. Please be careful in your future climbing ventures.

Yes, you can use it indoors, AND it WORK!! We use ours mainly in our basement, specifically in our furnace orifice, because we've had a problems with those teeny tiny red spiders (about the size smaller than a pinhead) building webs, making our furnace stop. This only happens when the furnace has not been running for a period of maybe three to four weeks.

personally, i would not use outdoors - i believe it is constructed for indoors only - probably would warp and metal rust. however, you can contact seller for more accurate informations.

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

I have not done this, but from my experience using it for wood, if the underlying surface is flat and smooth, then it should work.If the concrete has a rough or dimpled surface, then it will not work well at all. I would use a wire brush in that case.

Yes, it can be used on concrete. I have used this drill on my concrete porch to mount railings and handles with no problem at all. It has also done a fine job on the basement floor and wall masonry.

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.

it will work perfectly on concrete. I used it to coat my concrete patio and it did just fine.

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

I use it in concrete basement but I don't think it would slip because of felt underneath. It seems to hold up well.

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.

Using this rope for climbing would be extremely dangerous. The total force on the rope would be far greater than 195 pounds if you fell. This rope is NOT designed for climbing, despite it's appearance under a search for climbing rope.

i currently use mine outdoors on my concrete covered patio. I it would need to be on a hard surface indoor or out. If outside a good wind will kick up the mat along with the ball return unless you use doublesided tape to keep it down. The mat also get debris stuck to it outside in the wind but a broom can take care of any stuck leaves/etc. hope this helps
