Air resistance provides smooth and even performance
This is an air rowing machine which means that the resistance is provided by an internal flywheel. The flywheel creates wind as you pull on the handles which creates more resistance. Pulling harder means the flywheel will spin faster and create more wind, thus creating more resistance. This creates a similar feeling as rowing on water.

Con
The wind created inside the flywheel can get loud
It creates a “whooshing” sound. The harder you row, the louder this machine gets.
