This shoe will make you row faster?

Описание: ​‪@hellobont‬ rowing sent me a pair of their BR1 Rowing Shoes and a set of their QRS mounting system to review.

My opinion:
The shoes are absolutely fantastic - they really enhance your connection to the footplate and consequentially your control over the boat. They're very comfortable and really enhance your rowing experience - I'm a huge fan of these shoes!

In terms of the QRS - I'm currently a little undecided, it works, but I've used other systems that are more user friendly.

Information about the BR1 Rowing Shoes from the Bont Rowing website:
"Designed to meet the demands of the sport's most driven athletes, the all-new BR1 represents a revised approach to performance, comfort and safety. Harnessing feedback from elite, club and masters-level rowers, the BR1 is the sport's only specifically-built footwear to offer a true anatomical fit without compromise. It's everything you've come to love about Bont Rowing shoes, only better.

Featuring a lighter, stiffer and lower stack two-piece carbon fibre chassis, BR1 takes our renowned PBR1 and delivers better energy transfer, greater durability and reduced bend point force for a more natural and powerful interaction between foot and stretcher. Our uncompromising approach to performance pushes beyond power transfer with a lower forefoot cradle, increased bend point elasticity, wider heel cup counter and achilles gateway for a more versatile fit across the entire size range. Usability is further enhanced with targeted Super Stretch fabric placed around the first and fifth metatarsal for our most supportive and stable anatomical fit yet.

The all-new BR1 harnesses the effective and reliable BOA Fit System with single or optional dual-release safety mechanism for faster removal of shoes when getting in and out of the water and is FISA approved for competition. The all-new laser cut hydrophobic microfiber upper and anti-stretch backing improves foot hold and stability while the proprietary Tech Mesh liner takes comfort and ventilation to another level for a more comfortable row in all conditions."
