www.kayakpro.com/sup/products/ergometer

Site doesn't show shipping to Australia but at possibly $3k incl shipping there could be a market for these at the local gym.

Pffft - Danny Ching is such a copycat. Here is my version from nearly three years ago:

Hmmm, there's a rowing machine just like Casso's in my back room, covered in dust. And a kahuna stick. AND a balance board.

Rainy day project coming up .

I'd buy one for about $200.. Maybe even $500.. but I can't see myself spending about $2,000..(they maybe even more).. anyone know how much they will cost here?

Maybe if I win the lotto..

Yes you are right they wont be super cheap!! but they do have a great use for anyone who can not always get to the water or even those who are injured, I know Jacko would have loved one for when he broke his leg!! The other good thing is they will be great as a teaching device for shops and anyone looking at getting right in to the teaching side of things!! We dont think we will sell thousands of them but there are people who will see the benift of using something like this.

A good tread mill is not cheap either and i know which one i would ruther use!!

I guess good rowing machines aren't cheap either.

Now.. If SupVic had that clubhouse.. and ten of us chipped in $200each.. That might work..

These ergo's are going to be awesome.
Will be the only non-water paddling device that lets you work on your technique and power. (even better if your coach is with you)
All that is missing is a feel for the water.

We have it!
Holy crap its a good workout, team up with a iPhone and get your paddle technique on video.
Loving the burn but can see why the Ching-ster has little to say when he hops off.
Come and throw down a quick 500m squirt and we'll provide a Top Gear leaderboard!!
