I don’t know what kind of skipping rope style Christopher and Richard Nichols are used to, but the skip rope I remember involved jumping in one spot and not this bizarre hopping down the road Elizabeth is doing. Given the visuals, I would have expected them to make a joke about how Elizabeth is “hopping mad.”
In Panel 3, Elizabeth’s vertical leap is impressive. She should go out for basketball or volleyball or the high jump. Even more impressive is Panel 1, where she manages to make a little dust cloud appear not only where she has been but where she is going to be.
