Yves Larock Skippers & Two Page 3 Girls :)



From Today's Sun Newspaper, and online :
"Page 3 babes Mel and Nikkala jump for joy - trying out the latest extreme skipping craze. It features in the amazing pop video for Yves Larock's Rise Up, which is set to be this summer's hottest dance tune. The track is already racing up the Radio 1 charts FOUR WEEKS before its release. And yesterday the stars of the video - world skip champs PJR - exclusively showed our girls the ropes at London's Ministry of Sound."


The girls were put through their paces by Planet Jump Rope skip chief Maarten Goedeme and his team.
Afterwards Nikkala said: "It was so tiring doing that but I really enjoyed it.
"It's hard trying to ignore the rope and keep your rhythm but we got there in the end."
And Mel added: "That was exhausting! I need a rest - those lads must keep so fit."




Planet Jump Rope was formed four years ago by Belgium's brightest skip stars and since then they have performed to thousands of people around the world. This week they touched down in the UK to promote the new Yves Larock video.


Maarten, 28, said: "This is the first proper dance video that we have done but we loved it. It has really gone down well and people everywhere want to know how to do our tricks. The harder stuff is complex but everybody can skip - no matter how old!"
