Attempting double unders only when they come up in TODS won't be enough to get you to jump rope like Buddy Lee. Practicing 5 to 10 mins before class can do wonders. Here are a few tips..

1) keep your elbows in close to your body, that is, don't let your hands stray too far away from your torso.

2) try keeping your hands slightly in front of your hips instead of on either side of them (upper arms will be parallel to your torso).

3) its all in the wrists, turn them over faster instead of jumping higher. 4) practice practice practice. +1 for working on DU's as part of warmup.
