Silky Smooth
The WaterRower's silky smooth
action makes it a pleasure to use, replicating not only the superb physical
benefits of rowing but much of the aesthetic pleasure as well.
The WaterRower's patented
WaterFlywheel uses paddles to connect to a moving mass of water.
Like rowing,
the connection is
fluid, there is no impact, jerkiness and jarring typical of lesser rowing
machines.
The WaterRower's unique patented
WaterFlywheel has been designed to emulate the dynamics of a boat moving through
water.
When rowing the workout is generated
by overcoming the effect of drag as the boat moves through the water. So with
the WaterFlywheel the workout is generated by overcoming the effect of drag as
the water moves past the tank.
When rowing faster you move the
boat, the greater the drag and the greater the intensity of exercise required to
maintain your speed. The limit to the speed you can maintain is you, your
physiology. Not the machine.
Because the WaterRower's precision
spragg clutch engages the instant the handle is pulled there is no jerkiness or
jarring at the beginning of the stroke.
Because the WaterRower's frame is
wooden much of the mechanical vibration typical of other exercise machinery is
dampened.
Soothingly Silent
Because the WaterRower's patented
WaterFlywheel replicates the same physical dynamics as rowing, its operation is
equally as peaceful.
Simply pull the handle and you are
greeted with the sound of surging water. The noise, while not silent, is
soothing to the ears and is far from intrusive. Others can quite easily share
living area.
The WaterRower's wooden frame also
assists in dampening out any noise or vibration, there is no metallic clanking,
just the soothing sound of running water, making the WaterRower the quietest
rowing machine ever.
Stylish Design
Designed with an obsession for detail, the WaterRower is
unmatched by any other fitness equipment. The overriding design philosophy of
the WaterRower has achieved "beauty by simplicity". Every detail has been
resolved to compliment the overall appearance and performance of the machine,
the WaterRower is unmatched
by any other fitness equipment.
Every detail has been resolved to
compliment the overall appearance and performance of the machine. Special
attention has been made to blending it to a form so that the end result is
pleasing to the senses of sight, sound and touch.
Harmony in Motion
Harmony evolves from a natural
balance of elements.
The WaterRower blends the
tranquility of moving water, the warmth of wood, and the rhythm of motion.
These qualities combine to
provide a naturally pleasurable activity. Invigorating the body while relaxing
the mind.
Composed to capture the
aesthetics of rowing, the WaterRower is enjoyable to use.
The calming tones and smooth
action encourages the user from stroke to stroke.
The symphony of these elements
engage the user with a satisfaction which should be experienced.
Time is Precious
The WaterRower is designed to fit
comfortably into a busy life.
Simply lay the machine on the
floor and experience one of the most time effective workouts available.
Good looks and a compact frame
compliment any environment, living area, lifestyle and hence life.
Suiting the requirement of any
user, young or old, fit or unfit, male or female, even a short workout will burn
calories, tone your body, and leave you feeling enriched.
The WaterRower's silent operation
means it may be used anywhere, at any time without imposition on those around
you.
A workout on the WaterRower takes
no more time than laying the machine on the floor for use.
The WaterRower exercises all
muscles evenly, even a brief workout will burn calories, tone your body and
leave you feeling invigorated.

Space
The WaterRower has been designed
to optimize ease of storage.
Simply lift one end and the
machine stores conveniently upright in about the space of a dining room
chair.
The WaterRower's light wooden
frame, the positioning of the WaterFlywheel close to the wheels, and the
leverage effect provided by the rails, makes lifting almost effortless.
When stored the WaterRower's
patented WaterFlywheel provides a low center of gravity making the machine
very stable.
Being crafted from natural
hardwoods, suits the WaterRower for any environment. |

WaterRower Dimensions:
83"L x 21"W x 19"H (when raised on end for storage, 83"H x 21"W x 19"L)
WaterFlywheel
The WaterRower's unique
patented WaterFlywheel mechanism has been designed to replicate
the physical dynamics of rowing, in the knowledge that this will
achieve all of its physiological benefits, as well as much of the aesthetic
pleasure.
Many rowing machines imitate the
action of rowing, but they do so mechanically, and often lack the
natural dynamics experienced when a boat and
crew glide down a river.
When a crew row down a river they
work to overcome the effect of drag which acts against the hull of the boat. The
faster the boat is propelled the greater the drag and the harder the crew must
work.
The WaterFlywheel reproduces
these same natural dynamics. Like other naturally performed aerobic pursuits
such as swimming, running and cycling, to increase your intensity you don't
increase resistance you simply swim, run, cycle or row harder. The faster you go
the higher your intensity.
When each crew member pulls a
stroke, he or she works to accelerate the mass of the boat and crew. The effort
is applied evenly throughout the whole stroke, utilizing the muscles of the
legs, torso and upper body in unison, exercising the whole body uniformly.
The WaterFlywheel responds to the
work applied allowing constant effort through the whole stroke, unlike
resistance based machines where effort is high at the beginning of the stroke
and fades as the resistance is overcome.
The accuracy of the WaterRower's
mechanism and components provide an instantaneous pickup and the fluid
connection of the WaterFlywheel giving the silky smooth action free from any
detrimental impact or jerkiness and therefore comfortable whatever level of
workout is being performed.
Wooden Frame
The frame of the WaterRower has been constructed in solid hardwoods from
replenishable forests. The most eco-friendly material available.
The variety of wood, Ash, Cherrywood and Black Walnut are used for their
aesthetic qualities, there is negligible difference in strength and durability.
WaterRower's wooden frame has a warm appearance and provides excellent
engineering properties.
Wood absorbs impact, dampens sound and vibration, making the WaterRower quiet
and soothing to use.
The wooden frame is designed for a lifetime of use, looking stylish for many
years and like many wooden artifacts, improves with age.
