Man, I love your videos. Thank you so much for this. No one ever told me that the catch is asymmetric but it makes so much sense. This will help me a lot
At 9:50. Listening to the different sounds the blade gives you at the placement can explain a lot. Every time you said good, you can hear a distinctive hooking noise. As upposed to a splashing sound when he placed vertically
I love this video Aram, I have spent hours and hours working out the catch, finding it way easier to catch and connect quickly with a stern-loaded shell, as opposed to a bow-loaded shell. I have some footage of stern versus bow loaded rowing if you ever need! Long live the stern-loaded shell gang. I found our conversation about that extremely interesting! No question the catch is interlinked with the force application of the stroke, portrayed in the force-curve, only precisely depicted on a biorower.
Could you please clear up for me, when do we start to square the blade? At the feet? Is the square a quick motion or do we ease into it? I’m often told to square early. It could be that we need to just follow the “stroke”. Thank you
Just a quick for sake of clarity- on 9:30- you'd definitely would want to drop the oar, bouncing is eliminated by instant push with the legs while laterals are engaged- no drop- no senses of catch and recalculations in a brain what the blade is doing.. This drill itself is the work with arms/hands and works well progressing from basics.. I hope it makes sense :) So how do we get that perfect catch?
Only very tall men can row with correct posture. Any top rower under 6'3" bends forward/leans too far back, for extra length. Why? Because you wont be competitive. I'm 5'10" when I'm on the Erg side by side with a 6'5" guy next to me I'm stroking 4 more strokes per minute just to stay the same pace.
Absolutely love your videos! Please could you also do a video like thus on perfecting the finish

Perfect Video, especially the part with the asymmetric catch. That point totally agreed with my feeling in the boat.
Loved the video on the perfect catch. I would absolutely be interested in attending a session at HOCR 2023.
Love this video Aram. Thank you.
Yes please part 2! Oarsome :)

Thanks! Again!

Only in theory. You have to respect the interaction between body, blade and boat.
Would that be a topic for the next discussions with videos of how do you mean? Would you have any already to share?
Sorry, but I think you should explain the term "wash-in", for me it is not self-explanatory. How do you need to rotate the hands to do this?
i would like an explanation of "wash in" too!

The erg has not much to do with rowing.
@@AramTrainingOK, thanks for that. I did not really understand that point.
