(#12) Unlocking Jump Rope Creativity with Devin Meek


Listen Later

“I think creativity, like any other skill, is one that can be practiced” — Devin Meek 

Devin Meek (IG: @devin_meek_ YT: WeJumpRope) is an accomplished competitive jumper, best known for his phenomenal creativity and out-of-the-box thinking. He truly redefines how to use a jump rope, commonly referred to as the "King of Floaters" by many in the jump rope community. For those that are unfamiliar with Floater skills, we cover them at length in the episode. 

We cover a lot of ground in our conversation, including the impact of social networks on the jump rope world, stretching and warming up, how to cultivate and grow creativity, tips for better floaters, the most common reactions competitive jump ropers hear when they discuss their sport, and a whole lot more. Just a heads up that at about 45 minutes in, we get into the weeds about video editing and content creation. If that doesn’t strike your fancy, feel free to fast forward a few minutes or so. 

Please enjoy!
