In the sentence given, it is a gerund and not an infinitive phrase. The complete gerund phrase in the sentence is "jumping rope". The gerund is the word "jumping". A gerund is a word that takes the -ing form of the verb, but functions as a noun. This gerund phrase is used as the subject of the sentence.
