She’s right! It’s a lot of fun!  Best speed when you are first starting out is 4.0 – 4.4!  Skip on!

I’m a 16 year old male, and despite the fact that through the teenage years people become less and less likely to skip, I still skip everywhere, whenever I can, because I find it fun and it makes me happy. I get loads of weird looks from everyone including my friends, but it doesn’t stop me.
I find it sad that skipping has become such a social taboo, and the fact you’re trying to encourage people to be different is a really good thing, and it teaches boring adults to be childlike again.
I’d just like to say how much I love this website and everything it’s doing :) The fact it’s encouraging people to be happy and to skip is amazing. – Alex, London, UK
