The Dynamic Fluid Fitness S680 Timber Fluid Rower is a premium rowing machine designed for residential and light-commercial fitness environments. Constructed from American Ash wood and powered by Dynamic Fluid Fitness's patented adjustable fluid resistance technology, the S680 combines the natural feel and sound of water rowing with five selectable resistance levels.
A Bluetooth-enabled Interactive Performance Monitor automatically detects the selected resistance level, while the contoured seat, ergonomic handle, adjustable footplates and smooth belt-drive system support a comfortable rowing experience. Its timber construction also gives the S680 a distinctive appearance for home gyms, wellness spaces and light-commercial fitness environments where both performance and aesthetics matter.
Dynamic Fluid Fitness S680 Timber Fluid Rower
The Dynamic Fluid S680 is designed to combine adjustable water resistance with the warmth and appearance of an American Ash timber frame. Unlike conventional steel rowing machines, its wood construction creates a more refined appearance while retaining the stability needed for repeated exercise.
Dynamic Fluid Fitness classifies the S680 for residential and light-commercial use, making it suitable for home gyms as well as lower-volume professional fitness and wellness environments.
Seat rail brushes automatically help clear dust and grit as the seat moves along the rails, helping maintain smooth movement and reduce routine maintenance.
5-Level Adjustable Fluid Resistance
The S680 uses Dynamic Fluid Fitness's patented Twin Tank Adjustable Fluid Resistance technology with five selectable Fluid Force resistance levels.
The twin-tank design allows resistance to be changed while maintaining the natural characteristics of water rowing. Users experience an immediate catch at the beginning of the stroke followed by smooth, continuous resistance through the rowing movement.
- 5 adjustable Fluid Force resistance levels
- Patented Twin Tank fluid resistance system
- Natural water rowing feel and sound
- Instant catch at the beginning of each stroke
- Smooth and consistent resistance
- Updated impeller design
- Double-sealed, precision-aligned fluid tank
The updated impeller design provides up to 15% greater resistance than previous horizontal models, expanding the S680's exercise range while retaining its smooth fluid-rowing characteristics.
American Ash Timber Rowing Machine
One of the S680's defining features is its American Ash wood frame. The timber construction differentiates the S680 from Dynamic Fluid Fitness's steel and aluminum commercial rowers while providing a durable platform for residential and light-commercial exercise.
The premium black finish allows the natural timber character to complement modern home gyms, wellness facilities, personal training spaces and other environments where equipment appearance is an important consideration.
Bluetooth Interactive Performance Monitor
The S680 includes a Bluetooth-enabled Interactive Performance Monitor with automatic resistance detection. The monitor recognizes the selected fluid resistance level and incorporates it into exercise feedback.
Displayed workout information includes:
- Time
- Speed
- Distance
- Stroke rate
- Calories per hour
- Watts
- Selected resistance level
A heart-rate receiver is included and is compatible with major heart-rate belts. Bluetooth connectivity also allows compatible smart devices and fitness applications to be incorporated into training.
Contoured Seat with Smooth Glide
The S680 features a contoured seat with a textured, non-slip surface designed for comfort and stability throughout the rowing stroke.
Seat rail brushes help remove grit from the rail during movement, helping protect the rowing surface and maintain smooth seat travel. This low-maintenance design is particularly useful when the machine is shared among multiple users.
An optional Elevate Kit is also available from the manufacturer for facilities or users wanting easier entry and exit.
Adjustable Footplates & Secure Heel Support
Height-adjustable footplates allow the rowing position to accommodate different users. Secure heel captures help maintain proper foot placement during the drive and recovery portions of the rowing stroke.
These adjustable contact points make the S680 suitable for households or light-commercial environments where multiple users may share the same rowing machine.
Ergonomic Handle & Quiet Belt Drive
A premium ergonomic handle is designed to provide a comfortable grip while minimizing unnecessary strain on the hands, wrists and forearms.
The durable belt-drive and active recoil system provides smooth handle recovery and quiet operation, complementing the natural sound of the water resistance system.
Vertical Storage & Transport Wheels
The S680 can be stored vertically to reduce the amount of floor space required when it is not being used. Its upright storage footprint is approximately 21.46" x 20.47".
Integrated transport wheels make repositioning the rower easier when moving it between its exercise and storage locations.
