MODELS
KAYAK
The RSP Kayak is a complete sprint kayak setup, including a footrest and Nelo seat, that provides a super smooth and specific feel during use. The additional weight of the disc replicates the real stroke as closely as possible, making it incredibly smooth, stable, and heavy-duty. This is the Rolls-Royce of inertial machines for kayaking.
CONIC
The Conic model’s conic axis allows for rapid acceleration during the concentric phaseand an aggressive response during the eccentric phase. This results in high power demands from the athlete, with a sensation of pulling that is incredibly similar to that of pulling in water. Upgrading the model with an RSP encoder provides instant feedback.
WALL
The Wall Model is an exceptional, cost-effective solution that is small in size, making it accessible and suitable for any gym, camp, or competition use. Its fixed-radius axis and smaller size, make it ideal for upper-body exercises.

WHAT COACHES SAY ABOUT RSP
I can’t recommend the RPS machine enough. It is such a versatile machine: add a shaft and its kayak exercise! For one-third the price of a CATCH FORCE we derive similar benefits. But remove the shaft and add handles and there are many diverse exercises you can perform: pushing, pressing, rotating and so on. Less experienced athletes can learn to handle eccentric forces in a safe manner so it’s great for youth development and high Performance.
The RSP Wall and RSP Conic have become an important tool in our training. We already see good results with some of the athletes and I find these machines the best we have tried for this type of training!
We are using the RSP inertia wheels regularly in our training routine to work on technical details as well as a great tool in various gym sessions. We as coaches really see a difference and athletes really like to work with them!
ACCESSORIES
PORTABLE MOUNT KIT
The Portable Mount Kit is an aluminium frame that enables you to transport your RSP machine to training camps, competitions, or any other locations where you may use it. It allows you to easily mount it to almost any structure, such as other gym equipment, ladders, trees, car bumper plates, or boat racks.
Dimensions: 66,8 x 21 x 3 cm.
Squat Rack Mount
The Squat Rack Mount enables you to quickly mount your RSP machine to any model of squat rack in your gym.
THE RSP ENCODER & APP
The RSP encoder is a digital feedback system that can be mounted on your Conic unit to provide athletes and coaches with instant feedback and data collection options. It measures training performance in real time via a data connection (Bluetooth technology) with the RSP APP. Performance is measured in watts and cycles and users can save their workouts and consult their own data at any time.
The APP includes preset sessions for each of the 3 machines, and connecting to the hardware terminal is super easy. The Encoder is also fully compatible with the sports software SmartCoach, and users can monitor their data on their smartphone or tablet using the APP or on their PC with SmartCoach. The accompanying web platform allows coaches to easily compare athletes and view exercise history in detail.
MAKE THE MOST OF YOUR KAYAK INERTIAL
The official RSP distributor for the Paddling Community, TiP not only sells RSP products to our clients, but we also offer consulting on how to properly use the equipment, and the whole methodology for your flywheel (inertial) training. Serving as a bridge between the RSP company and TiP’s main mission, we offer a complete training solution for sprint paddlers; from technique, training and strength & conditioning programs, to consulting and live clinics.
When you order the RSP products from us, you get:
- A free video call with our team before you order – so you choose the models, specs and accessories that will best suit your needs
- A free video consultation with our team after you receive your machines – so we help you set up the machine, prepare it for use and choose the correct methods and loads for your athletes
- Discount for returning clients, bulk orders and HP athletes/programs.
BENEFITS OF TRAINING WITH RSP
Flywheel training results in numerous and varied improvements in muscles, tendons and other connective tissue. Improvements in strength, hypertrophy, muscle activation, muscle length, tendon stiffness, power, and athletically relevant performance have all been scientifically researched and documented in many sports. Besides this at TiP we believe flywheel training has the following main uses in canoeing training:
- Stabilisation of the shoulder and mobilisation of the hip (resulting in better application of the ‘block’ concept in the stroke)
- Awareness of the correct way of creating and applying inertia in stroke mechanics (or simply put, how to use body rotation the way champions do)
- Development of specific strength (to complement your general strength development)
- Technical training and motor patterning (RSP machines are designed to be adapted to your own gym setup and be used in a sport-specific way)
