FlowRow Board for Concept2 RowErg – B-grade
On a conventional rowing machine, you only move back and forth. The FlowRow Board adds a second direction of movement: your rowing machine tilts sideways, like a real rowing boat. Your deep core muscles automatically compensate for this with every stroke, for a stable back and a workout that never gets boring.
- Precisely manufactured for Concept2 RowErg (standard legs) and Concept2 Model D
- 6 balance levels via interchangeable rubber buffers
- Immediately ready for use — simply place it under your rowing machine (no assembly required)
- Made of solid wood, manufactured in Europe
- Patented in Europe, USA, and China
You row in three dimensions of movement. On a conventional rowing machine, you glide back and forth on the seat. The FlowRow Board introduces the second dimension – the lateral tilting movement. With Slides, the third is added: the entire rowing machine glides back and forth – similar to a boat moving beneath you.
This creates a rowing sensation that comes astonishingly close to a real racing shell.
In the version for Slides, the bottom boards are larger and shaped to fit precisely into the sliders of the Slides. Rubber feet on the underside let it stand directly on the floor as well – so you can row with or without Slides at any time. If you are planning to get Slides, you can start without them today and add them later without buying a new board. If you will always row without Slides, the standard version is the more affordable choice. The Slides version is available in black.

Which balance level is right for me?
The balance level determines how much the FlowRow Board makes your rowing machine sway. Answer two quick questions and we will recommend your level.
1. Your body weight?
2. Your sense of balance? (your best guess is fine)
And if it turns out differently: with an adjustment kit (from €40) you can switch to any other level at any time.
By the way: 9 out of 10 customers start between level 2 and 4 — level 3 is the most popular.

Balance level and changing it
The heart of the board is the rubber mount: two steel discs with natural rubber in between. It does not dampen — it flexes. That is exactly what lets your board tilt and come back. The softer the rubber compound, the wobblier the board.
The six balance levels work like different rowing boats: a boat built for heavier rowers is more stable — that matches a lower balance level with a firmer rubber compound. A narrower boat for technically skilled rowers demands more balance — that matches a higher level. So choose your level by body weight and sense of balance.
You can change the level at any time. The rubber mount is held by one hex screw on the upper and one on the lower plate. The matching hex key comes with every conversion kit; the change takes a few minutes and needs no DIY skills.
The rubber pads included are something different: they don't make the board steadier, they limit how far it can move — like training wheels on a bike. Ideal for your first sessions.
I'm simply thrilled with the FlowRow Board! The instability greatly increases the intensity of the training and, above all, forces you to keep tight control of the entire movement.
