10 ft at 5'11" is a long rope. Is it kicking up into your feet or just catching? Feel free to post video of you jumping and I/we can better diagnose.
When you are ready for CR they are the best imo. No need to be a proven jumper...in fact they will help you get better. You just need to know that you're going to use them if you're gonna spend the 💰.
And also will these two jump ropes fit my needs
