Talk:Chinese jump rope

Compare with Gummitwist

I assume these are both the same games. Please check this and put them perhaps together. Greetings --Nfu-peng 17:48, 23 July 2005 (UTC)

Alternative name: Elastics

This article seems to describe what we, in New Zealand, called Elastics.

Merge?

This article and Jumpsies seem to be about the same thing. By the way, the game is also played in Romania, and is called "elastic" (hurray for original research :-p) --Urzică (talk) 20:29, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

Chinese garter

The name I've heard for this is "Chinese garter". Never heard of "Chinese jump rope". Gronky (talk) 00:13, 30 August 2009 (UTC)

It's called "Chinese Jump Rope" in California where I grew up, so I'm sure it is in other places as well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.13.5.124 (talk) 05:46, 17 April 2015

History, origin?

Came here to learn where this game originated, and was disappointed. Encyclopedic knowledge includes origin stories. Xaxafrad (talk) 21:48, 5 April 2020 (UTC)

Well, never mind my previous comment above. I finally came back and read the lead more thoroughly. I must've skipped over the history paragraph because it's indented and looks like a block of quoted text. Xaxafrad (talk) 00:42, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
