Is Crossrope’s smart jump rope worth $200?

I spent a month testing the $200 Crossrope AMP Jump Rope Set. There’s a lot to like, but it’s hard to recommend for casual users.

Not everything needs to have tech inside. Not everything needs to be "smart", "connected", "electronic". That's a security nightmare. Not to mention, often less practical and more fragile. The more you learn about tech, the more wary and sceptical you become. The less addicted you become to your electronic devices, the more time you will have to actually enjoy life, for work, and perhaps even more time for jump roping.
