Listen to the USA Cox at Henley

[@aarone8354]

The attention to detail with the audio is ridiculously good in this vid. Good job Eamon

[@thomaslynch5563]

This is so awesome… if they did something like this for Olympic races it’d be so hype

[@rowhsv]

OMG, this is the answer right there! The IOC and various rowing bodies all lament that rowing is not spectator/TV friendly, no drama, etc. Yet Eamon has single-handedly shown how it should be done!

[@VIEW-ut3bu]

Maybe, keep it untethered but accredited, so that freelancers can demonstrate the skill of a human hand.#agreed. Superb editing and field recording!!

Great POV, so cool to listen to the coxswain, this audio does a good job at showing how important the role of a coxswain is, great calls made, and great control of the crew and boat.

[@dermotbalaam5358]

I’ve found that counts are counter productive. Athletes start to focus on the numbers and lose concentration on what matters.

[@skicrz]

That was fun to watch. Sound from US Coxswain and Brit commentator was a plus to hear both sides.

[@0THC0]

you're doing great work, been wanting to listen and watch like this for a long time

[@EamonGlavin]

I appreciate that! Just trying to make the videos I would want to watch

[@Gingerbreadman1208]

Yeah I’ve always wondered how they cox at the elite level

[@JosephHolschuh]

Really loved the audio in this video. The interspersing of the mic'd up cox and the commentators was crisp + engaging.

[@wochee]

A good video and great sound editing. Congratulations, Eamon. I was surprised at the scarcity of technical calls from the cox, and instead the use of repeated ten stroke pushes. Obviously this was part of their standard approach to racing, but it was not as though there weren't things that could be done better, technically, in the US boat. As I said, interesting.

[@vip3rnb762]

Well at least in my experience, it's better in a race like this to avoid big changes and to just keep the stroke simple, big technical changes can ruin the rythem sometimes.

[@drift13]

@@vip3rnb762 they’re very rarely big tech changes - just reiterating what has been practices hundreds of times in training.

[@DS-wo5hd]

Constant power 10s is demoralizing imo but this might be a nonstandard approach even for them, and they adjusted on the fly to try to make up for bad start. Didn’t work tho

[@jayrap94]

Absolutely amazing sound mixing!

[@ronetele13]

What a force of nature she is!!

[@BDLukkes]

The audio design on this is awesome

[@thethug89]

The British coxswain looks so comfortable in comparison. Not a whole lot of unnecessary check. Anytime the US 8 had good speed and flow a power 10 was called. Two different leagues.

[@kranmaster]

It's easy to look comfortable when you're on home soil and ahead from the first stroke. The Yanks gave them a hell of a race, and their cox did a hell of a job getting everything she could out of that 8.

[@thethug89]

@@kranmasterComfortable in the boat because of the lack of check. I’m looking at things objectively. You can look at the blade entries, time spent during the drive, the movement of the shell back towards the starting line. The British did everything a lot better here. Objectively.

Insane video - US coxing is so different to British coxing!

[@EamonGlavin]

I thought the exact same! It sounds like there are multiple voices for the British cox! I wonder if he's doing a whole bit...

[@GMoneyLove]

@@EamonGlavin There was a lot of counting being offered by the U.S. cox. I'd offer that this "style" of coxing is not necessarily what is taught, but it is all too commonly used. I've heard a much more narrative delivery, interspersed with some counting, at the national level in the past.

would love to see more UK stuff from you, I appreciate you're American and there is already more than enough content over there without the added expense of shooting here, but covering The Boat Race would be a good one, esp if you got access to the locker rooms/training sessions in the lead-up to the race.

outstanding job by the coach who's miked up.I myself am a coach with a boatrowing team for several years and I am inspired how it can also be done. Thank you!

[@Dr.Schlitz]

The cox rarely makes a difference, as was the case here. GB took an early lead and the US never challenged. In my own experience, coxing is 90% steering. Once the steering is nailed down, there’s not much a cox can do to affect the outcome of a race. I was never big on a lot of cheerleading or counting.

damn USA is slow af

[@wochee]

I don't think they were slow at all, but the length of stroke was a little short, and there wasn't as much run happening as in the Brit boat. Obviously, different intended approaches to the work. The US boat is very punchy, but I am not sure it had as much finesse as it might have wanted.
