Video Analysis - Comparing different styles of rowing and their effectiveness

We got a question from Robert, who is a successful Coach from Poland, now working in Isreal. He asked:" when is the right point of time to open up the upper body? Is there a fixed rule?"
The answer is: No, but.... (as usual)
In this video we have tried to show similarities between sweep rowing and sculling and the main principles of rowing technique as we believe they are.

my coach had been telling me recently that when I scull in a single, I open my back early, and I've heard the same being said about some other rowers. is it just a term for leaning back too early?

[@will1x928]

So when should you open up? Were Italians opening up at around 50% through the leg drive would you say?

[@robkluvers4020]

I almost agree with your opinion.
