@@jfw0382 Salty BOWSIDE

Lol i had to learn That from 2 lesson and I’m now on it for like half a year and if i say my self do it without thinking so😂🤷‍♀️

How many days that you learned please?

Josh Simpson I'm not the only one😂😂 I was actually having a full body cringe

yikes.. same

Same

Me too. And he was out of breathe like he did something uhhh 🙄

Same... I was worried he’d hurt himself.

literally he just started moving his arms, and legs there was no body angle, no swing, no jump, and no pressure at all. he was just going back and forth 😂😂😂 that was a terrible 100 meter race 😂

but at least he tried 😂

@@ainerainey9250 Wonder how you would be first time writing a national news story on a deadline?

Thats why, no wonder lol

+Thrilla in manilla you've never rowed have you

Henry Thomas yep rowing is a love hat relationship but there is nothing else like it. Although there was tough times, I enjoyed rowing for all 4 years during highschool

Same I hate it but I miss it when I don't row for 1 week

Sounds like EMS. I see why I'm attracted to rowing now. It's the joys of mutual suffering

No it was 100m

​@@eabhaflanagan3123​No he took 3 strokes they said he had 10 more meters

3 strokes to do 10 METERS are you kidding me it should be just one!

@@adadere5273 Not for someone who has never done it lol??

@@eabhaflanagan3123 3 strokes for 100 meters? nah man it doesn't work like that

Alex Phillips you learn to scull before you sweep

@@Tomskerl I learned to sweep before I learned to scull

Emma Reynolds really? In Australia it seems that we all learn to scull first then you sweep when you get older

i’m in california and we learn to sweep before sculling

Tennessee here and I learned to sweep first

As a skinny guy I get called out at125 a lot, I'm easy 128!

i think it's just perspective to the other guys

#lightweightrowing

Tony Lee lmao true

But he literally learned how to row that day

I had to go in 10 year old Filipi's for 2-3 years before i even was allowed near a wintech!!!!

Cian Mac I don't know what is wrong with you guys but Fillipi is like a Ferrari and Wintech like is like a 20 years old chines bike. Have you ever watched World Championships? they only row Fillipi Empacher and Hudson and not that soft asian crap

rudern in Grünau Yeah but when i started i had to row in a crap eurochamp that was like 10years old, a wintech is way better than that, maybe not as good as an empacher or fillipi, but still a great boat...

Sorry not a filipi a different boat i derped.....

rudern in Grünau when i started i had to row on an almost 20 years old empacher

The question is "How hard can it be?"

Well it's not really a "training" session at all is it?, it's more of a light entertainment and good TV. Serious training would start off in a tub until you get the hang of balance- oars feathered correctly and at strike, also synchronising properly with the other crew. after that you'll move on to either quad/double tracer sculls or fours/eights(with cox), depending on your aptitude. if you get really good then you move up to the racing boats, big guys with the power at stroke end,smaller guys with the technique(or steering ability if coxless) at bow end. as for single sculls,you need to master all three at once-power,steering accuracy and balance.they aren't the easiest to row especially on a tidal course.

I was thinking that lol

I mean the guy is a bad learner for a journalist, didn't ask any questions. I had my first go rowing the other week and was put in a quad and made sure to ask the experienced guy behind me how my hands should be oriented and all that stuff, they didn't tell me anything till I asked.

Thought the same.....the first time i row was in a boat as fat as a sailing boat

I learned to row in a double scull too. Then again my crew is very sculling oriented.

+Evelyn M. Hmmm interesting

Evelyn M. sculling master race

well they cant exactly put him in a pair can they? Thats even worse

In west coast United States that hasn't been the case for the most recent generations of rowers. Now it's no tubs, no barges. I believe most learn to row/novices are started in an 8 that was likely used at some point as the varsity A or B boat in a major race, when it was fresh and new. The coaches call it trickle down rowing when the best of the team use the new equipment while the older it gets, it eventually makes its way down to those who seldom have rowed before.

It would probably be better to start out on the fine boats because it forces you to learn rather than rely on handicaps and so on

it took me like one mhonts to get in the 4 boat and five in single scull

I actually started out rowing in a single scull, and then transitioned to other boats. I think I did have pontoons on for a little.

You guys started on tub boats? My coach just threw us into the racing shells and we only flipped once on like the third day, haven’t flipped since

Do you still row?

Update ud

Don't discourage anyone. Waking up early is actually a good habit. As for blisters, I thought it was weird no one has come up with sport gloves for this!

Nunya Bizness There's rowing gloves out there, from multiple brands even! ._.

@@pdrucker881 your not meant to wear gloves

My school roped us in by training after school for the first two years. Then, once you couldn’t leave, they switched to mornings.

@@jackvickers1608 well, you can, but everyone would mock you, so it’s not recommended. That’s literally the only reason

Veronica Elsie We learned in doubles

A lot depends on the "coaches " and on the learners . One day 2 of us took a couple kayak paddlers out in a regular 4 man boat . After 15-20 minutes they weren't half bad . Mind you , we were good at coaching and they were good athletes . Later they reciprocated and took us 2 rowers out in their 4 man flat water racing kayak .

If you think about it, his bowman is an Olympian and double his size. I think he's fine

4s are rocky, could make a new rower who can’t swim a little nervous

I beg to differ Javier, I've coached a number of newbies with us sitting a double, me at bow. That way you have one-to-one focus, it's easier to maintain control of the boat and their cause and effect actions are not diluted by the others in a boat with 4 or 8. But hey, each has their own...

Zach Damon Cisco ive never passed out but usually i just get sick

Stay hydrated! Vomiting can be a sign of dehydration, along with passing out.

+Jess Noyes Our coaches call the "oar locks" locks and "oars" blades

Not the gates part but oars are the entire, well, oar, the blade is the just the part on the end that goes in the water

Shane Elliot sane here

We call them oar locks, but for the oars we call them both oars and blades. Your oar is the whole thing, but your blade is the thick part that moves you through the water

yeahhh call them gates and blades

:( please help me

it’s hard

Oh no don't do this at the gym go to a different vid not here

trust me, real lfe rowing is much,much nicer than the gym equipment.Yes it's hard and takes training to do well, but it's also relaxing if you don't want competitive level.It's a fantastic way to de-stress

in a coxless pair/coxless four that's right. bow man has control of the rudder.

I was stroking in a double, and when we got back to the pontoon, bow decided it was a great idea to lean out and undo the outside oar without anyone holding the boat. Long story short, we capsized, and it was freezing, and I had to walk home. Although I did drop the boat while carrying it up, so we might have just been having a bad day.

Ikr IM 12 and I do I 100m in 19seconds

Yh he should be doing at least 250m in 1 minute

jfw 03 exactly

100 meter isn't even 30 seconds in a racing boat. shortest sprints we did were 500m. typical race is 2k so 7-8 minutes. head of river races are fun but brutal. like you said 6-8k depending on current and that's 20-25 minutes solid flat out. current against you totally wipes you out!!!!

I think they should have had him in a sweep boat personally. One oar is easier to focus on instead of 2 and if they chose to do a 4 seat he could stroke, the twins could be 2 and 3 seat, and maybe they could have an empty 4 seat, and have a coxswain, you know, cox.

Good idea out in double bow man can balance the boat so the new guy in the stroke seat can can learn the basics

How is the rowing journey going?

i dont live in the usa- but theres no rivers there?

that almost happened to me the other day in a chicago reggata.

I mean I didn't

you are not a boat anymore?

swapped genders@@snekkel

Read the comments. In different countries, they are called different things. Most people agree, the blades are only the part of the oar that go into the water.

gates also called "rollocks"
