swiftly done in swift shell w/ swifts overhead, mins 1.30 - 2.00 is the part where the sculler re-seats ahead of the croc-attack ;-o

Rest in peace John....

I don't agree at all

How do I learn to be loose and comfortable at the catch? 52yo male , not terribly flexible, ankles not too flexible. Thank you, great video.

Your video techniques has helped me with learning and enjoying my boat.

Great wrist position lesson. Personally I don't shift my shoulders bow and stern, but go over a quarter inch square and even shoulders. Personal choice.

If you flip during the race, this technique can actually enable you to finish the race.

Good info, but I still have trouble reaching the far oar lock (short arms).

Looks dead easy - watching HER do it on RUclips. I bet not so simple for me in reality!

I envy how completely and utterly relaxed and balanced you are in the boat! You make it look so easy. Until I get in the boat and try it myself… 😢😮😅

Still the best flip test instruction video after all these years. I visited you in 2016, it was awesome.

Your balance at the catch is awesome. I find myself tense and wobbly there 😅

Very good !!!! I will never forget you. Thank you very much. Brasil. Ronaldo Carvalho 👏👏👏

Grande Abraço. Ronaldo Carvalho. Flamengo 👍👏

Thank you

Sir thanks for your support

Thanks 🙏❤️❤️❤️

So very butiful

Thanks mam

Very cool, thank you. Brand new middle aged rower (57). Level arms, delayed elbows makes full sense. I recognize that piece now when I watch rowing videos'. I'll start with a partial slide.

This is very clear and helpfull !! Thanks a lot

Very relaxed posture. But I believe in the drive. first knuckle of the fingers and upper part of the hand have to make approx 90 degrees. Feathering with the fingers and not to much with the hand.

Thank you for the video. I just got an old Alden 16 and I have no idea how to start with it. I also did not get oars or Oarmaster locking pins, but still it is nice to see how to set up your rowing scull before taking it out.

Everything is a pulse

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

Thank you very very much sir

Easier said than done

These guys are legends for responding to some of these comments even after 8 years

What a crock of shit. All of these analyst trying to analyze crap that just isn't there. The sad part is that this is a virus spreading to today's rowing arena with the same affect: analyzing shit that just isn't there ultimately for the sole purpose to promote your school or business. All about money. You want to tell me that any of the athlets coming to the Olympics, they don't know how to row effectively? The same people that have thousands of hours, thousands of dollars in equipment, trainers, facility, nutritionists go to Olympics with problems? Bullshit. One thing for sure if you look at the video beginning: Ozzies stroke rate was higher then everyone else's.

Excelente dicas👍🏽

Very helpful, thank you! I’m a beginner and my first times out on the water I chopped up my right knuckles. Off-setting the hands would have… well, come in handy then! :)

this got recommended to me just after my coach was talking to me about my hand movement at the finish, great video :)

Struggling a lot with my finish (struggling a lot in general I guess). This looks really helpful.

I'm really sure you can build it yourself. I did this 2 weeks ago thanks to the Woodglut plans.

Brilliant tutorial, all the key information and all clearly explained. Never thought about red-right before - helpful, thank you!

The Best 💪💪💪👏👏👏 Technique

Who else has just tipped over and is watching videos trying to get back in? Just me?

Excellent comments

I had been rowing for a few years before I flipped it. And it was due to stupidity: my oar lock wasn't tightened enough. The oar popped out, and I was over in a flash. I had never practiced this maneuver before but knew enough to get the oars wrangled in first. FYI, there is a pair of almost new Oakleys at the bottom of Stoney Creek Lake.

Thank you very helpful

Great clinic at Swan Creek this past weekend. Immersion (cognitive, not literal, pardon the pun) is a great way to learn.

Just found this video after repeatedly ripping open my bloody knuckle. I hope to try to hang with my fingers and offset my hands slightly.

Merci pour cette video !

This is great! Just had this <exact> talk with my U23s this morning and sent this to illustrate. Light fingers, wall of water, slipping the blade out... very cool. Thanks!

Thank you - simple drills for beginners get a new life with your great demo and explanations!

Great video....I replay often to study your technique. Thank you

It all takes time, especially the ability to stay loose. The more comfortable you are, the more you'll relax and stay loose. Good luck!

My only problems right now are keeping my wrists straight and holding the blade looser i just find this really hard

We use port, starboard, bow, stern so that there is no confusion. When you say "right", am I referring to the boats right or your right? If I say port or starboard, there's no question.
