Double the Corde, Double the Fun

With Valentina Zackrone

Double the corde, double the fun! The possibilities are endless.

This apparatus combines the responsiveness of rope and being able to do lasso tricks with the versatility of silks, including all of the two-strand wrap variations.

You can also explore all the latest release and catch tricks that you’ve seen on silks without the risk of spraining your fingers. Accelerate your learning of dynamic moves without the drag of additional bounce that is often experienced on fabric.
