    This scratches the itch for having regular (albeit in great shape!) people competing alongside the pros for reference in all these intense events😂 Thanks for taking on this crazy challenge!

    As a rower, I could feel the anxiety in that pair lol. It’s stressful enough when you start in a big boat, let alone a small and unstable one! You guys honestly did really well, the coaching was phenomenal as well. Putting you in a pair and making you do race starts on your first day is hilariously cruel😂

    As a rowing coach and knowing the extreme calorie and physical toll that the sport puts on you, I'd like to say that it was a bold movie to tackle that on day 1. Much respect though! Very impressive rowing for two novices, and not immediately flipping the pair was astonishing. That's a tough boat even with the most experienced of rowers

    • @inMuro
      @inMuro 4 дні тому +1

      yeah that's what i was thinking. The double 4 was so impressive, for a novice, technique wise. Makes me wonder whether they've done any breathstroke training, because that's also a momentum-thing. Novices usually take a lot longer to understand that.
