The RX Evo FRE handles
The EVO FRE’s handles are constructed from a special high-impact polymer, making them extremely lightweight yet nearly indestructible. In fact, this rope weighs roughly two-thirds as much as the premium EVO G2, yet achieves similar performance and durability. The handle design mirrors RX Smart Gear’s top-tier EVO series: ergonomic grip geometry with knurled pinch points for precise control, and silicone traction bands for a secure, non-slip grip during intense workouts. A reinforced head unit and high-quality bearing mechanism ensure smooth, frictionless rotation at high speeds, so you can crush double-unders and triple-unders with confidence. Each EVO FRE also includes a rugged zippered carrying case (with a mesh pocket and velcro patch) to protect your rope, underlining its competition-ready design.
Performance
Speed and precision are at the core of the EVO FRE’s performance. This rope delivers effortless high-rep double-unders thanks to its ultra-light build and frictionless spin system. The lightweight handles reduce fatigue in your shoulders and wrists, enabling you to maintain intensity through long WODs and practice sessions. Despite its featherlight feel, the EVO FRE doesn’t compromise on durability. The high-impact polymer and reinforced components stand up to daily punishment, so you get pro-level speed rope performance without sacrificing longevity. Because the FRE is part of the EVO series, it retains the elite ergonomic features and accuracy of its metal siblings (like the EVO G2), but at a more budget-friendly price by using advanced polymer construction. In short, the EVO FRE moves fast and hits above its weight, giving you competition-grade skipping efficiency for mastering double-unders, triple-unders, and beyond.
The RX Evo FRE is perfect for you:
- You’re serious about your double/triple under performance.
- Ideal for athletes with small to bigger sized hands, thanks to it’s verity of possibility of grips on the handles.

The RX cable
Combining the RX Evo FRE handles with our own manufactured cables makes it extremely high quality and versatile. It comes in 12 different lengths, 6 different thicknesses, and an ever-growing number of awesome colours. Due to its free mounting system, this rope is perfect for efficient double-under workouts and for the double-under cross-over, which was presented for the first time in the CrossFit Games 2022.
Coated vs. uncoated cable
The coated cable comes with a flexible PVC coating but is slower than the uncoated cable. However, the coated cable is more durable than the uncoated version. If you want to go uncoated, it will give you more speed, a lot more speed! But only do this if you’re advanced and tripping on the cable is minimised. The uncoated cable is fragile, and jumping on the cable frequently can cause it to fray easily.
What cable length do I need?
The cable length depends on your body height and technique. If your technique is perfect, choose one size shorter. If your technique is not that good, choose one size longer. If you already own a rope, the best way is to measure the length of that rope and pick the appropriate size according to this table.
| Body Length | Size | Cable length |
|---|---|---|
| 145-150cm | 7’10” | 239cm |
| 150-155cm | 8’0″ | 244cm |
| 155-160cm | 8’2″ | 249cm |
| 160-165cm | 8’4″ | 254cm |
| 165-170cm | 8’6″ | 259cm |
| 170-175cm | 8’9″ | 264cm |
| 175-180cm | 8’10” | 269cm |
| 180-185cm | 9’0″ | 274cm |
| 185-191cm | 9’2″ | 279cm |
| 191-196cm | 9’4″ | 284cm |
| 196-201cm | 9’6″ | 290cm |
| 201-206cm | 9’8″ | 295cm |
What thickness do I need?
The thickness you need depends on your experience and the stimulus you want to have. If you want a very efficient rope for double unders and you are an experienced jumper with more than 50 unbroken double unders at any given moment, the uncoated speed metal is the way to go. If you want to improve your conditioning with a heavier rope, the Buff is best for you. Below, you can find an overview of thicknesses and applications.
