This is one of the sliding sets in an 8+ rowing shell. You can also see the shoes in the foot stretchers. The sliding seat, together with the fixed position of the feet, allows the rower to power the stroke with the leg and back muscles, not just the arms, yielding a more efficient and powerful stroke.
