Velites
Velites is a Spanish specialist in equipment for functional training. Founded by Matías Hernández, it develops ropes, grips and accessories around the details of repeated practice. The Fire 2.0 speed rope shows that approach through aluminium handles, interchangeable cables and an adjustment tool stored inside the handle.
Velites: origin & history.
Matías Hernández founded Velites in July 2015 after developing early jump-rope prototypes. The Earth and Fire 1.0 preceded Fire 2.0, launched in 2016 as an evolution shaped by training feedback. In his account of the design, small practical details matter: handle construction, cable options and keeping the adjustment tool close at hand. The Spanish company’s range has since expanded into grips, clothing and other functional-training accessories. Fire 2.0 remains a clear introduction to that equipment-led identity, with a configurable cable system and a compact object that travels with its user.

Discover the Velites selection.
A few pieces tell the story in their own way, through a shape, a material or a familiar gesture.
Fire 2.0 Jump Rope · Silver →
The Fire 2.0 in Silver has lightweight aluminium handles weighing 37 g each and an adjustable stainless-steel cable with a PVC coating. The standard cable is 2 mm in diameter and 3.5 m long before adjustment. A T-wrench is stored inside the handle, allowing the cable length to be set without carrying a separate tool. The package includes the handles, cable and carry bag. Optional 1.8 mm and 2.5 mm cables and handle weights change the configuration and are separate choices. Use a smooth training surface; Velites recommends rubber gym flooring to limit cable wear, since rough ground is more abrasive.
Brute All Terrain Hand Grips · Black Pink · M →
Velites’ Brute All Terrain grips put a broad protective flap between the palm and a training bar, with an adjustable hook-and-loop wrist fastening. The Black Pink version combines a plain dark surface with bright pink Brute and Velites details. Designed for use with or without chalk, the grips are supplied with protective wristbands and a mesh bag for airing. This is size M, listed at 0.236 kg. Wash by hand in cold water with mild soap, then air dry completely; avoid the washing machine and direct heat.
