The Nature of Rowing- Natural Fluid Connection

When rowing, the connection between the oarsperson and the moving water is simply an immersed paddle.

As a result, rowing is smooth and low impact, ideal for any user, young or old, male or female, fit or unfit.

The oar does not tear through the water. The oar locks into the water and the oarsperson simply levers the mass of the boat and crew past this lock point. Any tearing or slipping through the water is wasted energy since it does not propel the boat forward.

The natural fluid connection of the WaterRower's paddle in water acts to dampen out the harsh mechanical feel typical of conventional mechanical rowing machines.
