Thanks so much Aram. I’ll keep you updated on my progression!

"Killing fish". Great quote. Great video - looked flawless to my novice eyes, but great feedback.

I would like to see slightly less layback and smoother/quicker hands out of the corner followed by a more controlled slide into the catch. Quicker hands/corner allows you more time on slide so as not to rush into the stern- eliminating checking the hull speed. Too long of a delay at the finish can also make you feel the urge to make up rate on the slide. The rowers exaggerated layback is also driving the hull down into the water ( bobbing the hull) vs keeping it moving forward on one plane. So slightly less layback, quick hands around the corner to arms away...then body and slow slide. Another way to keep the shoulders from rising at the catch ( and risk driving blades to deep) is set the blades with a rise of the fingers rather than the hands or arms. I think this would be relatively easy for the rower as he has a light loose grip already. Lift the fingers into the catch forward of the knuckles. All this should let you row a little more elegantly, reduce hull bobbing, and also reduce stern check. Good luck!!!!

I have this problem! I think it’s because of all the static ergs in lockdown.

Fantastic that you are sharing your experience and expertise with us! Just starting to row i am told not to lean back too much; waste of energy. Could it be the case for Marqus?

Great analysis!
