Add an on water feel to your Model A, B, C, D or E Indoor Rower with the Concept2 Slide!
If you already have a pair of Concept2 Slides and want to be able to link two or more indoor rowers together to simulate a "double" for great team training, you can purchase a spare slide (one slide, as pictured).
How many slides do you need?
When linking indoor rowers together, you always need one more slide than the number of indoor rowers you are linking. For example, if you want to link four indoor rowers together, you need five individual slides. So, you would need to purchase two pairs of slides and one single slide to achieve the five slides needed.
If you just want to put one indoor rower on slides, order a pairs of slides instead.
Sliding Single
Set up as a sliding single, the indoor rower moves back and forth under you, more like rowing on the water. You get a quicker catch and can row at a higher stroke rate, because you aren’t moving your body mass—you are only moving the mass of the indoor rower.
Team Boat Slide
Connect Models C, D and/or E Indoor Rowers to create a team boat slide. A great training tool for coaches, creating a team boat slide makes your crew work together.
Technical Details
- Construction: Each slide consists of a base with two tracks and a wheeled carriage that runs on the tracks. Light bungee cord tension keeps the carriage centered on the base
- Number needed: Slides are sold in pairs and spares. You’ll need two slides (a pair), to “float” one indoor rower: one slide each for the front and back legs. To create a team boat slide, you’ll need a pair plus a spare for each additional indoor rower you plan to connect. For example, to connect two indoor rowers, you’ll need three slides: a pair and a spare. To connect three indoor rowers, you’ll need four slides: two pairs.
