Mastering the Drive: Expert Rowing Technique

[@aircanuck]

These videos are outstanding. I'm just starting out in rowing a scull after 12 years in a kayak. I appreciate the tips!

Thanks for the useful tips Charlotte: "Drive after the catch... the importance of the horizontal stroke... make sure the legs are down before starting bending the arms... draw the arms into the body"

Thanks Charlotte! Always a good review!

amazing really helped me start picking up speed but staying steady when i scull at my local club.

Thanks. I think I have been trying to use my arms and dropping into the water too much.

Thanks, that's what 33 years of rowing will do!

Really liked that clip - excellent work CH - never mind the neanderthovs that embarrass us - please accept an apology from one of the opposite [and less fair] gender -

Quiet video followed by LOUD SUDDEN MUSIC. Is that a rowing thing to get your heart going? :-P
