A sculler Dmitry Khmylnin from Kamensk-Uralskiy, Russia asks: "How to set up the stretcher properly in sculling?”
|
|
How does offsetting the oarlock (and, hence, the axis of the oar) from the centre of rotation at the pin affects rowing mechanics?
|
|
Some coaches think that to effectively use biomechanics they must prepare for the onslaught of numbers and high level math. Here we illustrate a straight and logical path to the successful application of biomechanics in rowing.
|
|
Do you know that changing oar length a few cm does not dramatically affects rowing biomechanics?

The latest World rowing championship 2011 in Bled, Slovenia was the fifth fastest after Eton-2006, Seville-2002, Poznan-2009 and Indianapolis-1994.

How can an athlete minimize losses caused by asymmetry in sculling?

Ralph Earle, President of the Honololu Rowing Club, HI, US is asking: "In the January 2011 Newsletter you derive drag factors for ergs to match the perceived feel of various boat types on the water. That suggests that the OTW (on the water) equivalent DFs are dependent on boat speed, so I am writing to ask: Do you have formulae which take that into account?

Last year GPS data
on boat speed and stroke rate became available from FISA website www.worldrowing.com. The data for the
World Cups and Championship regattas is presented in 50m splits. To check the
accuracy of the data, we have derived an average speed over the whole race
using GPS data and compared it with the speed obtained from official results. |
Recently, we have conducted a
study with the following hypothesis: can shorter rowers really benefit from using shorter
oars? |
We test your technique in any boat, at both training
and race environment, with various level of complexity. Quick response time (usually within hours), accurate
analysis, various forms of feedback makes it very powerful tool for achieving
effective rowing technique.
