“For the past 9 years I’ve used paddling erg’s for my own training as well as coaching new & advanced paddlers. I’ve used the STROKE2MAX paddling simulator for the past 2 years and I can confidently say that this STROKE2MAX ergo is reliable and good value for your money. The “stroke simulation” on the STROKE2MAX is better than both the other two ergs I’ve used previously.”

“Stroke2max is a very stable and robust ergometer. Every paddle stroke feels like a water stroke. It’s one of the best ergo’s that simulates paddling as naturally as possible. You have ample power/pressure at the beginning of the stroke, important for sprint training. It’s a perfect machine to warm up for weight lifting, cold winter sessions when there is ice outside to get into a better shape. I think it is also perfect to do a lot of solid training for kids at school. I think it’s an optimal ergo.”

“I tested the Dansprint Ergometer and another ergo (without a name) at Gaia, Portugal during the ICF Marathon World Championships. I found that the Stroke2max simulates the rowing action the best of all 3 that I tested. I believe the reason for this is due to the single rope which is being used on the Stroke2max which differs from the other two. I did 75% of my training on the Stroke2max ergo and won Gold (1st place) in the K2 Sub-Grand Master category at the ICF World Marathon Championships in Portugal 2009.”Andre Rabie

“The stroke2max is a fantastic paddling machine. It offers a comfortable seat with a very “real” paddling feel. It is quickly and easily adjusted and suitable for any height person. When its windy in Cape Town, Michele and I paddle on the ergo. It is fantastic sprint training and awesome for technique. You can film yourself or paddle while looking in the mirror. It is a fantastic alternative to either paddling on water or a gym work-out, as it supplies such a hard aerobic and muscular workout.”
