Behind the Jump Rope Reels with Dizzy: Tech Recording Tips for Real Skippers

In this solo episode of The Jump Rope Podcast, Dizzy Skips (@dizzyskips) nerds out on all the tech, gear, and glorious fails behind his jump rope reels.

If you’ve ever:

• Jumped out of frame

• Rocketed your headphones with a rope

• Or spent 37 minutes syncing 37 seconds of music…

This one’s for you.

🎥 Camera choices? Covered.

🎧 Audio tips? Yup.

📸 Lighting and framing? Let’s rule those thirds.

🧠 AI help for captions? Present!

⚡ Battery anxiety? Obviously.

Dizzy shares the tech and techniques that help make his skipping rope content fun, functional, and only slightly chaotic.

Whether you’re using Instagram, CapCut, or just stuffing your phone into a shoe, you’ll find tips here you can actually use.

Sound bites include:

👉 “I always use the back facing camera.”

👉 “I use my phone instead of a GoPro.”

👉 “I use AI for help writing my captions.”

Bonus: Dizzy shares his strategy for staying chill with meditation (and Brain.fm), how he lost AirPods to the Mississippi, and why he’s still laughing when things go wrong.
