The RPM comp rope has been co-designed by Rogue and Jason Khalipa to deliver an ultimate machine for fast spinning with Aluminium handles.

Pros of the RPM comp rope
No compromise on the speed with a bushing design. The bare steel cable makes you perform and every single piece of this jump rope has been designed to perform.
Cons of the RPM comp rope
The higher price and the non coated cable might not make this the ideal choice for use at home. Here you might want to go for the RPM speed rope base model.
Alternatives to the RPM comp rope
The SR3 jump rope is the bread and butter model in the CrossFit community. If you are annoyed with the jump rope from the local shop and want to start with double unders, this is the one for you. It is part of many of the Rogue equipment packages and can also be bought in bulk to outfit an affiliate or college gym.
The SR1 jump rope is an alternative to get a bearing jump rope on the cheap. The SR1 also has bearing to make the rope run smoothly but the handles are not made of Aluminium. This makes them lighter and more cost-efficient at the expense of being easier to break.
The Rogue Pro Jump Rope is the ultimate jump rope from Rogue. It combines the speed of the speed ropes with the weight of heavy ropes to create the most challenging and satisfying jump rope experience from Rogue. This product is also fully manufactured in the States. Apart from the price, there is nothing bad to be said about it since its first appearance at the CrossFit 2016 games.
Summary For the RPM comp rope
This can be a great upgrade for someone who already owns the base model or entry for an elite athlete, especially if you like the handle design and do not want to spend $100 one jump rope.
