Efficient Rowing
The Virtual Pivot is a system that rotates the swing arm around a pivot located near the joint of the big toe in the ball of the foot. This noticeable mechanism enables the ankle to move freely and concentrate the force of the entire movement on and around the ball of the foot. Abandoning the notion that a stretcher is a fixed system brings new possibilities to rowing.
Rigid Sole
Conventional rowing boat foot stretchers are generally fixed at an angle of approximately 40 degrees. The angle between the foot and shin of a vigorously moving leg is not stationary, however, with the heel greatly elevating when in the forward posture.
Virtual Pivot provides sufficient stroke range without the shoes bending to eliminate power loss. Since the shoes no longer need to bend, they can be fitted with plastic soles to improve the stepping force transmission efficiency. This provides an unprecedented feeling of power.
