The WATERROWER's unique WaterFlywheel has been designed to reproduce the precise physical dynamics of a moving boat, which is the surest way to replicate the physiological benefits and aesthetic pleasure of rowing. Like rowing, the WaterFlywheel does not apply resistance to you, you apply work to it; you are the engine. By the "rule of cubes", the amount of work you apply dictates the speed at which you row. From a gentle paddle to a "give it your all" workout, you are in control.

The WATERROWER's unique WaterFlywheel design uses a specially formed paddle to cup the moving water, reduce slippage and produce an unrivaled simulation of the benefits of rowing. There is no jerkiness or jarring which is often associated with conventional mechanical rowing machines, making the exercise unpleasant; only smooth even load, kind to the body, and relaxing to the mind. There is no "solid" connection between user and the moving water, simply an immersed paddle which dampens out any detrimental mechanical feel. Providing some "give" is essential for accommodating bad or developing technique, lessening the risk of injury.

A uniform stroke is essential to spreading the work more evenly over the muscle groups, working the muscle groups in proportion to their strength, optimizing exercise benefit while reducing risk of injury. The S4 Monitor measures the speed of the paddle using an infrared detector mounted on the underside of the top deck and a castellated Sensor Pickup mounted on the inner clutch bush. The motion of the paddle revolved the sensor disk which in turn triggers the infrared detector.

A comfortable seat for rowing is essential for optimizing performance and ensuring a satisfying and effective workout experience. It provides proper cushioning and contouring, while minimizing pressure points and promotes healthy posture. Wheels for easing the movement of the machine provide an efficient solution to transporting the rower. These wheels are designed to enhance mobility and maneuverability in various settings, making it effortless to reposition and store without the need for excessive manual effort or additional equipment.
