Row and scull with Oartec's new simulator
By Sarah Todd
The new Oartec Rowing Simulator replicates the dynamics of a boat and the full range of exact movements made when rowing and sculling in a boat.
Designed to encourage correct technique, users row with an oar in each hand, differing from more traditional pulley-based systems, and the simulator can be used for a range of functions, including technical training and cardiovascular work.
Commercially-available only, the kit was originally designed with rowing clubs and national rowing federations in mind, and is versatile, mobile and easily stored when not in use.
Oartec is a WaterRower company and is committed to designing innovative rowing solutions. Other products include the Oartec Slider dynamic rowing machine.
