KayakPro Waka Ergometer

KayakPro Waka Ergometer

The KayakPro MultiStroke Waka/Outrigger Ergometer is the first Ergometer specifically designed for Waka/Outrigger Athletes. Unlike any other Ergometers available, the KayakPro MultiStroke Ergometer can precisely replicates the resistance and on-the-water feel of Waka/ Outrigger paddling. The Ergometer allows the athlete to switch sides using the same shaft without changes to the Ergometer.

The Combination of catch, resistance, and glide are 3 factors which make up the true “on the water” feel of paddling. In order to replicate this, the mechanics of blade entry, relationship between the forces on the shaft, the top guiding hand all are critical. This Precise replication has been achieved in the KayakPro MultiStroke Waka/Outrigger Ergometer.

The MultiStroke Ergo is the first Ergometer specifically designed for Waka or Outrigger, Sit-and-Switch and Pro Canoe Athletes.

Unlike any other Ergometers available, the MultiStroke Ergo can precisely replicate the resistance and true on-the-water feel of Waka and Outrigger paddling. The Multistroke Ergo boasts many unique features including:

  • Delay-proof catch.
  • Adjustable / Variable load and resistance.
  • Adjustable stoke rate frequency either by fan resistance adjustment or shaft length.
  • Adjustable Shaft allows the use of the appropriate shaft length to give the correct ‘centre of pressure’ on the paddle blade (below the bottom hand).
  • Removable legs and Flywheel cage to allow easy transport and storage.
  • Fully and easily adjustable footrest to fit any paddler.
  • Contoured platform seat
  • Large display On-Board console, with fully calibrated, time elapsed, distance traveled, Countdown distances or time, Stroke rate, Heart rate, functions pace speed, or projected time 

These ergometers precisely replicate the resistance and on-the-water feel of Waka Ama / Outrigger / Sit-and-Switch / Va’a and Pro Canoe paddling. They allow the users to switch sides using the same shaft. The combination of catch, resistance, and glide are 3 factors which make up the true “on the water” feel of paddling. In order to replicate this, the mechanics of blade entry, relationship between the forces on the shaft, and the top guiding hand all are critical.  Coaches and paddlers can now focus on this and perfect their technique.

The Multistroke Ergometer is perfect for on and off-season training or fitness.

The on-board console is able to receive the performing athlete’s weight. It is important to input the user’s weight in order to ensure that the data output and feed back for each Ergometer is specific to the weight of the athlete that is using it.

If no athlete’s weight is entered, a default weight of 75 kg is automatically used. Please refer to the KayakPro OnBoard Console Instruction Manual for information on how to enter athlete weight.

The standard on-board console should also be calibrated each time the Ergometer is used - this will ensure consistency and accuracy of data output and consistency between Ergometers.

The onboard console is designed to operate in indoors, in low-medium humidity environments. [< 60% @ 25 °C]. It is not waterproof, and should not be stored, maintained and/ or used in High humidity environments, nor subject to contact with water or moisture.

High humidity environments, e.g. swimming pools, and external patios / areas in hot and humid climates may well negatively affect the functioning of the on board consoles. Corrosion and deterioration of vital contact elements, and electronics are possible.

The product guarantee, expressly excludes the on board console where it is used in high humidity environments.

Please note that the ergs ship in 2 boxes and some assembly is required.  We can arrange for someone to assemble for you however this will incur an additional fee.
