KayakFirst Paddle Ergometer Kayak

A realistic paddle machine for kayakers.

This is KayakFirst's new model, Bull. Please note that the screen shown in the images is not included; it merely demonstrates that the machine has a mount for an optional screen.

Whether you are a competitive paddler or a recreational athlete, this is the obvious choice if you want to maintain your training during the winter. KayakFirst represents the new generation of paddle machines with a realistic feel, providing you with an unbeatable substitute for actual paddling.

With KayakFirst's thoughtful design, the angle of the paddle entry closely resembles the real experience when you are sitting in your kayak. This is because the lines leading to the paddle shaft exit the machine at a relatively high position, perfectly calibrated to provide the most credible power distribution. This results in a significantly more realistic workout compared to most other paddle machines, where the angle and force come from a lower position. Additionally, the lines to the paddle shaft have a quick rebound when the pace is high, allowing you to perform interval training at a fast tempo without being limited by the machine.

Just like on a rowing machine, you can adjust the resistance based on who you are and what type of training you want. The integrated color screen allows you to change the type of data displayed during your session. You also have the option to display a virtual opponent on the screen, which helps keep your motivation up during the workout.

An optional accessory available for purchase is the "Sliding Bench," which mimics the forward and backward feel of a kayak on the water. This can also be added later.

KayakFirst's Ergometer is fundamentally the same machine, regardless of whether you choose the "Kayak," "Dragon Boat," "Canoe," or "SUP" models. The difference lies in the accessories, meaning you can easily achieve multiple types of training from a single machine. If you don't purchase all the accessories initially, you can always add them later if your preferences change.

In developing the product, the focus has not only been on making it realistic but also on making the machine compact. A significant advantage that KayakFirst's machines have over competitors in the market is that they take up less space and are easier to store. When not in use, it can be stored upright, occupying only a footprint of 61 x 96 cm. Please note that any holders for mobile phones and tablets shown in the images are not included and are an optional purchase. You can also buy a holder for smaller TV screens.

• Footrest
