Rowing Illustrated

HOT - all the foreign competitors heading out on US road trips after worlds. Welcome!

Time trials at national championship events = not. At least when they separate 14 crews from the field based on it. While it avoids the problem of arbitrary seeding, it cuts down too much of the field with no chance for redemption. It is also a completely different type of race, removing the side by...

Hire Teti, or Hartsuff. The comparisons between USNT and UM club rowing have been written above^^ w/ Teti guys train out of CRC / alongside CAL. Teti figures out how to manage the time commitments. Hell they could do pieces against each other (assuming that Cal is at minimum a U23 quality 8+, should...

The sculling oars we have in house are Smoothie 2 Vortexs, and are set at 288 total length. From what I can find online, your assertions in this thr...

Greg Searle says on camera that he had to tell Columbia Lights to turn down the loud rap music they were playing through the speakers, while their boat was sitting in slings. Favorite moment so far. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x94uMzzqwn4&index=4&list=PLgHoN6LLDp_8N_y592Zczx4cCvjWLcjwn h...
