Only from WinTech Racing - the world's first all in one rowing simulator for sweep and sculling.

Now it is possible to use an indoor rowing machine to accurately replicate the rowing stroke and enable rowers to practice on land what they would do in a boat. This means that the exact muscles and movements used in rowing are being utilized to develop strength and flexibility where it is needed.

The Oartec Rowing Simulator represents a quantum leap in rowing machine capabilities and functionality. The addition of outriggers and oars, among other design innovations, makes the Oartec a true indoor simulator, entirely different from conventional machines. Use this unique design to make the most of land training for your crews; we think you'll see a big difference when they are back on the water.

Sweep or Sculling

The simulator is able to be rowed in either a sweep oar or sculling configuration, and is easily changed from one to the other by interchanging oar handles and oar pivot positions. Rigging span and inboard oar length measurements are standard. which allows the rower to achieve the same reach and finish angles as they would in a boat.

Adjustable Footstretcher

The footstretcher system is adjustable to fit each rower and the heel height can be raised or lowered to allow for comfort and correct "through the work" position. All these adjustments are quick and easy to make.


Adjustable Resistance

The simulators flywheel and housing are integral in giving the Oartec a realistic feel and smooth stroke. The air resistance is variable and controlled by moving the vent lever position to the desired setting within easy reach of the rower. It is recommended the resistance be set between 5 and 10 for sweep and 1 and 5 for sculling depending on the strength of the rower and intensity of the workout.


Workout Monitor

The Oartec workout monitor has been designed for rowers. It has many standard functions such as time, distance (meters, kms, miles), speed (in time per 500m, m/s, kms, miles), power (in watts) and strokes per minute. The monitor also optionally displays data such as average speed, average power and stroke count as well as technical data such as stroke length, drive ratio, average strokes per minute, heart rate and drag.


Folding and Storage

Storage is a breeze. The Oartec folds inward to stand upright and occupy minimal storage space when not in use. Wheels mounted on the frame make it easy to move a machine, even through doorways. Both folding and unfolding take less than 30 seconds.
