• Hey Guest,

    An update on the OFCOM situation: As you know, censorship around the world has been ramping up at an alarming pace. OFCOM, the UK’s communications regulator, has singled out our community, demanding compliance with their Online Safety Act despite our minimal UK presence. This is a blatant overreach, and they have been sending letters pressuring us to comply with their censorship agenda.

    Our platform is already blocked by many UK ISPs, yet they continue their attempts to stifle free speech. Standing up to this kind of regulatory overreach requires lots of resources to maintain our infrastructure and fight back against these unjust demands. If you value our community and want to support us during this time, we would greatly appreciate any and all donations.

I dont have access to any other rope, and Im worried that the thin ones would snap. So i was wondering if a 5mm rubber/plastic skipping rope would be enough to hold my body weight. Im also considering partial hanging but Ive read that it doesnt have a very high success rate compared to FSH. Ive also tried practising partial hanging but i wasnt able to pass out successfully

Both plastic and rubber skipping ropes aren't designed to hold your body weight. Skipping ropes are generally designed for low-impact cardiovascular exercise and are not intended to bear the full weight of a person. If you're looking for something to hold your body weight a climbing or battle rope would definitely be a better choice. Climbing ropes are thick ropes that are commonly used in fitness training and battle ropes are heavy-duty ropes used for for various exercises like waves, slams and other dynamic movements

It's unlikely to work and definitely elevates the risk factor involved, but people have hung with all sorts like scalfs and such. I personally wouldn't. Find a decent rope off AZ. Proper climbing ropes are no good, cause they have spring, so ironically, fake is best in this scenario.

Any rope that can hold your weight and will easily tighten should work I'd imagine.
