Best Rhythm for the Rowing Stroke

  • The most effective rhythm in rowing is described by the infinity symbol. There should be an acceleration through the drive, a float after the extraction, and an acceleration through the recovery into the placement. When you put these two acceleration curves together, and allow the movements to flow into each other, it resembles the infinity symbol.
    In our Technique series, we plan to do detailed videos on each part of the stroke, but this is just a high level look at the way they all flow together.

    love these videos - thank you. Recovery phase : are you suggesting the rower actively "pulling the boat towards" the body by hamstring contraction / pulling the feet , rather than "letting the boat slide underneath"'. Massive disagreements in our club about the this active versus passive phase of the recovery.

      @@toofarsouth Ahh, pity, I was there in April, and tried to get a paddle with one of the clubs across the water from Flinders, but it didn't work out. We do believe in actively pulling the boat progressively into the placement. I was also taught to spin the hands away and float the slide, but I am now very sure that thats the wrong way around. We have a vid on this. Please check it out, try it for yourself, and let me know. Wish I could come and do a demo. ua-cam.com/video/BJdDoPRs08g/v-deo.htmlsi=ypV7vj-xa09GMaHR

    Wonderful video, thank you! We love what you do! Just a thing to brainstorm- dropped wrists in a video in a release are missing out on maintaining the speed and boat travel length by 5cm at least in each stroke I believe...

      I agree. The athlete in this vid is one of our InFin8 coaches, and a highly competitive masters rower. She has RA which makes feathering into the fingers is painful for her, so "motorbike wrists" is a compromise. There are faults in her technique as there are in everyone's, but her body position and sequencing is something most of us can learn from.

    I have been railing against the usual rowing dogma for more than a decade; vertical tapdowns at the finish (which can't actually happen without the vertical spoon being pulled through the water for a distance as it rises, apart from starting off from backstops when the boats is stationary), 'let the boat come to you' on the recovery (as if some magical force is involved rather than you actively pulling it against the hull drag slowing it down), 'quick hands away' (as if throwing your 5 kg arms forward drags your 70 kg body out of backstops - how we can throw balls and not follow them through the air is a mystery), and many more...
    Well done; keep it going, and explain using physical principles where you can. I'll subscribe. 👍

    Big error. Her right hand arm stroke begins as a brake to forward movement slowing the board ie as the right oar ends its recovery it hits the water BEFORE it is ready to begin the next stroke this decelerates the boat. Not good!!!

      Of you are suggesting that there should be no backsplash the we have to disagree. I am going to do a vid on the placement as part of this series, but will also do a seperate one on why there must be backsplash. Not a big one, but one none the less. Look forward to your comments when it's done

      I am waiting on the video about backsplash ❤ am interested in your point of view ❤

      I am certainly going to cover backsplash in my video on The Placement. It is in the process of being made but will only come out after one on The Draw, which covers the recovery, which will be out by the weekend at the latest. I think a separate vid on backslash may be worthwhile too so thanks for the comment. Spoiler alert.... We think a backsplash is vital. I look forward to explaining why, showing the benefit of developing one, and the process of almost getting rid of one.
