WaterRower Driftwood Rowing Machine
Whether you are an elite athlete or a complete novice, the WaterRower Driftwood Rowing Machine delivers a total body workout. This rower features the patented WaterFlywheel which mimics the sensation of rowing on a lake. The water resistance delivers a powerful, yet low-impact workout. It has a dual rail design and is made out of premium Ash hardwood which can absorb vibrations to ensure a smooth ride. To give it that authentically aged look, this wooden rowing machine has a driftwood stain finish.
The WaterRower Driftwood comes with a backlit S4 monitor that displays calories per hour, meters per second, miles per hour, and is packed with other useful features to make tracking your fitness goals easier. Made in the USA, this indoor rower is virtually maintenance-free as it does not require lubrication, just add a chlorine tablet (available for free) every 6 months. After your workout, the fitness rowing machine can be flipped vertically to save floor space.

WaterRower Driftwood Rowing Machine
The WaterRower’s unique WaterFlywheel has been designed to reproduce the precise physical dynamics of a moving boat; the surest way to replicate the physiological benefits and aesthetic pleasure of rowing. Many rowing machines imitate the action of rowing but they do so mechanically and often lack the natural dynamics experienced when in a boat.
The WaterFlywheel’s uniform mass produces a constant effort through the whole stroke, spreading the work more evenly over the muscle groups. Water is 800 times denser than air, and there is therefore no need for extraneous adjustments. Self regulating resistance varies according to the Rule of Cubes (doubling the speed will require an eight-fold increase in power), resistance is therefore infinite and infinitely variable.
Why Water?
The WaterRower’s unique WaterFlywheel design uses an specially formed paddle to cup the moving water, reduce slippage and produce an unrivalled simulation of the benefits of rowing;
Self Regulating Resistance - like rowing, the WaterFlywheel resistance varies proportional to the users intensity. The relationship between resistance and speed responds according “the rule of cubes”. The rule of cubes dictates that a doubling of speed requires an eight fold increase in power.
Self Paced - 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.
Even Stroke - like rowing, the WaterFlywheel uses a relatively slow-moving heavy mass to generate a smooth uniform load throughout the stroke. Air resistance machines, by comparison, tend to be jerky, jarring, and uneven, fading as the resistance is overcome.
Fluid Connection - like rowing, the WaterFlywheel creates a fluid connection between rower and water using a simple immersed paddle. There is no solid mechanical connection, instead the contact between the paddle face and the water acts to dampen out any mechanical feel.
