north georgia mountain real estate: What do Double Dutch Jump Roping & Real Estate Have in Common? A Market Analysis for Blue Ridge, GA - 08/08/08 02:24 AM
Ever watch Double Dutch? It's not your mother's jump roping! The sport involves at least three people and two ropes. One person jumps while the other two rotate the ropes. More than one person can jump at the same time, and there is often some kind of gymnastics or breakdancing involved in the jumping. It is a real kick to watch!
The key to Double Dutch is timing.  Enter the furiously rotating ropes at exactly the right time, and you can be a star. Enter at the wrong time and you wind up with a tangle of rope around your ankles, or, worse, on your butt.
