Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) is a closed-cell foam block (optimal sealing), lighter and which floats better than a traditional PU (polyurethane) block. The advantage of increasing buoyancy is to increase rowing speed and improve maneuverability .
Epoxy resin is a much healthier alternative to polyester resin, it emits 50 to 75% fewer VOCs (volatile organic compounds) and considerably limits the chemicals released into nature.
The carbon fiber strips placed along the center of the boards act exactly like a leaf spring, absorbing and then gradually releasing the energy acquired during the bottom turn, thus allowing for smooth transitions during the sequence of top turns .
