A better way to row your boat
Facing forward and with your hands free!
Rowing is inherently more powerful than paddling. But the rear-facing position of conventional rowing makes it impractical for enjoyable touring.
The FrontRower™ gives you all the power of full-body sliding-seat rowing with the forward-facing position of paddling.
And it does something that conventional rowing and paddling doesn't — it lets you row HANDS FREE.
You can row the FrontRower™ with: (1) your hands, (2) your feet, or (3) both together. This gives you lots of variety for getting high quality low impact exercise. Or for spreading out the work over different muscles when traveling longer distances.
