PR2 Fixed Seat Innovation and Mentoring

17 Nov

The ParaRowing Foundation (PRF) is leading the way in not just supporting athletes around the world, but supporting their world itself with innovation to help them succeed. In this instance, PRF partnered with Inond to create a state-of-the-art fixed-seat for PR2 rowers. They even enlisted GB Paralympic Champion Gregg Steveson to test it out and provide feedback. While down at Marlow Rowing Club, Gregg also took the opportunity for a water season with the next generation of PR2 talent, Adam Hussein:
