You sold me. I'm ordering one. I'd considered it several times previously but always talked myself out of it because there are several available in the gyms at work. But now that my wife isn't going there anymore, I need to upgrade the home gym so she has more options. Yep, that's my excuse. I need to buy a rower so my wife can use it!

I just wish Concept 2 had a model that was convertible between rower and skierg. It doesn't seem like it would be that hard to make since the central components are the same, and it would take up less floor space than 1 of each.

The original ski erg I saw was a rower hung up and mounted to the wall. You should be able to figure out something like that.

Challenge accepted. Looking at the photos it does appear that might be possible. The model D is 8 feet long which would be a whole lot of wall, but apparently it comes apart in the middle. (It would still be nice if they would offer a model designed to quickly and easily convert back and forth.)

Ordered.

Interesting conversation. I asked if they're getting an exceptional # of calls and she said OMG Yes. Asked if they were getting low on inventory and she assured me they were not. Asked about hanging a rower on the wall to use as skierg and she was emphatic that that was not possible. Somewhere between the lines I suspect that might be a response required by corporate lawyers. Maybe I should have asked if I get a complimentary season's pass at Craftsbury. ;-)
