Portable Rowing for Everyone
ROWonAIR has engineered the world’s best universal rowing system. The engineering and construction are unparalleled. While refining the design the engineers at Row&Sail sought input from rowing clubs all over the world as well as olympic athletes to perfect the design.
With decades of experience in precision manufacturing, it is no wonder that this rowing system is as beautifully constructed as it is designed. The ROWonAIR Universal Rowing Unit will fit countless boards and boats to convert them into a rowing shell! This system also has a fleet of inflatable ROWonAIR designed boats specifically with rowing performance in mind. ROWonAIR offers the ability to row both traditionally, with RowMotion and in the direction you're facing with our innovative RowVista system:
RowMotion - Our traditional rowing system. We sell this version two ways: with our carbon fiber 2 piece oars, or with no oars (you can use your old Concept2 oars from college).
RowVista Forward Facing Rowing System - Our innovative, patented, forward facing rowing system. RowVista is a maintenance free rowing system that lets you see where you are going! Using stainless steel bearings and carbon fiber oar blades/tubes the quality and craftsmanship is unparalleled. RowVista is the only forward facing rowing system in the world that allows you to feather the blades!!!
The ROWonAIR rowing skid has two rigger configurations:
F-Rigger - This rigger is for mounting on flat boards, it is lower profile and very sleek looking.
Y-Rigger - This rigger is for mounting in boats with gunwales. Great for mounting to canoes, shells and even dinghies!

The rigger style does not change the oarlock height.
Universal Rowing Unit Innovations
The Universal Rowing Unit is the perfect multi-tool for flexible and performance-driven rowing. With portability of this magnitude nothing will stand in your way of serious fun or row training whenever and wherever you want.
Not the right rowing board for you? Let’s find your perfect row boat.
Universal Rowing Unit Features & Innovations
The ROWonAIR Universal Rowing Unit is the world’s best drop-in rowing unit. It's easily mounted on any paddleboard or surfski with the F-type rigger, or mounted inside a shell or other rowing boat with the Y-type rigger. All of this, and you can bring it with you on vacation as checked luggage!
F- or Y-Type Outriggers
F-type outriggers are ideal for paddle boards or surfskis and Y-type outriggers can be mounted in kayaks, canoes, inflatable dinghies, and many other crafts. Check the schematics to measure your boat and find out if ROWonAIR will fit.
Air Travel Ready Bag System
ROWonAIR rowing units feature a bag system that has no equal. Each part has its own bag, then those bags fit inside a large padded wheel bag for easy transport and can even be checked as luggage on an airplane as sporting equipment!
Lighting Fast Assembly
All parts quickly and easily attach to the main center bar using red clamp levers. Essentially, slide the part onto the bar then flip the lever over and it is installed. The entire rowing unit can be assembled in less than 60 seconds.
Quick Attachment Hooks
Attaching the rowing unit is done in mere seconds thanks to the retractable hooks in each end of the unit. You simply extend the hooks to a centralized D-ring or padeye and then pull tight.
High Friction Rubber Feet with Universal Mounting
Rubber feet prevent slipping fore and aft as well as side to side. Just above the feet are holes that allow passing a strap through the feet. This allows you to mount the ROWonAIR Universal Rowing Unit to any SUP or board by simply wrapping the strap around the board and pulling it tight.
Carbon and Anodized Aluminum Construction
The ROWonAIR Universal Rowing Unit is beautiful. The matte anodized aluminum main bar plays nicely with the sleek lines of the glossy carbon fiber outrigger. These materials combine for an ultra-rigid rowing unit.
Infinite Adjustability
Rowing is a sport for people of all sizes, from junior rowers to master rowers in college and beyond. Rowing with ROWonAIR means you can adjust seat placement, outrigger placement, height from the water, and even oarlock height (on RowMotion). ROWonAIR is made for everyone, and everyone will think it was customized just for them!
RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES
MAKE IT YOUR OWN WITH ROWONAIR ACCESSORIES
Carbon Seat Upgrade
This carbon fiber seat replaces the standard foam seat for the hard seat feel experienced rowing derrieres are used to.
$120
Row Pad for Carbon Seat
This pad is specifically designed for the carbon fiber seat. This pad is a real butt-saver. A must-have for anyone that has to have the carbon, but isn’t ready to commit to a hard seat.
$69
Concept2 Foot Stretcher Upgrade
This foot stretcher upgrade switches out the normal axle style stretcher for the Concept2 Flex Foot stretcher that is common on their new generation of ergs.
$90
Foot Raisers (4 Pc)
These foot raisers are stackable as a spacer/shim for mounting the ROWonAIR rowing system into other boats. You can also use them to lift the skid a little which could be advantageous in very choppy waters.
$35
Universal Mounting Straps (Pair)
If you plan to mount your new ROWonAIR rowing unit on anything that isn’t Mojo 18, Dude 18, Lite 15, or Air Kayak 16, you’ll probably need these straps to mount it to any other paddleboard.
$35
RowMotion Oarlock Spacer Kit
This spacer set allows you to set the oarlocks to different heights or to generally raise them to best suit your style of rowing and the sea state conditions. Raising the oarlocks might make rowing in larger waves easier.

Customer Reviews
- AAsimRated 5 out of 5 stars3 years agoRowVista - Beyond Amazing
Alex, I gotta tell you this. Yesterday I was at Lake Natoma, the home to the Sacramento Aquatic Center, with my Kayak and RowVista kit. What I did not know was that there was a whole bunch of rowing teams practicing. (I later googled and found that they have the PAC 12 happening today, which is a University level competition).
The look of amazement and bewilderment that I got from the boys and girls on sculls was amazing. It felt that this was the first time they saw someone row forward which btw is the only way I know, as the first time I rowed was 2 weeks ago.
I got smiles, cheers and sometimes envy (side eyes) from over a 100 young people. I thought of going again today but I think I couldn't handle any more attention.
The RowVista definitely made me the coolest rower, although not the fastest among these professional athletes. While, I have improved to 4.6 mph (7.4 km/h) over 2 km since I got the kit.
Thanks for letting me live this moment, eagerly waiting for the XCAT.

Have been using my Row Vista system for several months now under flat to choppy conditions. I love rowing but living along a coast with a large tidal range and plenty of rocks I really enjoy seeing where I am going. Row Vista is super smooth and a real treat even on longer rows.
Working with Red Beard Sailing has been a pleasure. Thank you Alex.
