    Amazing, blown away by the sustained power and the sheer magnificent speed. I had no idea that the cox's spine extended and compressed like that. Props to all.

    Could we get a video with an explanation of some of the commands from the cox and with you? I think that could be quite interesting. 🙂 Amazing to see this great effort. Wow !

    Fantastic race Shane! Congratulation to you all and a special mention to your cox as well. It will be really interesting to know about all the command she gave you. This is really inspiring.

      Thank you and YES, she's an amazing coxswain. It's fun to be able to bring you guys the commentary from inside the boat.

    @semilvr 20 днів тому +2

    So confused w this view. The cox has her back to the rowers or is this a split screen? I thought the cox faces the rowers because how could they be giving commands if they can’t see the rowers. Sorry, just confused by distortion in the shot.

    • @DarkHorseRowing
      @DarkHorseRowing  20 днів тому

      You are seeing it correctly. In a 4, they are typically set up with what is called a "Bow Loader" meaning the coxswain lays inside the shell and faces forward in the bow, while the rowers face their usual direction behind here. In an 8+, the coxswain does sit in the stern face to face with the first/last rower called the stroke seat

      No! Any height works, you just have to want to be a good technician and get fit

      How on earth does the cox know what to tell you?? I mean, she’s obviously excellent at this, but…well, I guess I need to study on-water more. This is amazing! Thanks for sharing, Shane! More of this, please!

  • @katcallaway2526
    @katcallaway2526 14 днів тому

    Also, how can you hear your cox? Is she wearing some kind of amplification? I’d think the rower farthest away (not sure of the correct term, sorry) would have a hard time hearing over all the noise.

      Yes she has a microphone and there are speakers down inside the boat.
