Of all the time I've watched this race, this is the first time I've noticed that 1/2 the boats are starboard stroked. With Ebbesen rowing Starboard. Is the Video reversed?
lightweights. often described as the most masochistic and psychotic rowers. similar training and times to the heavies with up to 40kg less weight to use! i love how these guys are so light and in my experience as a lightweight it seems that aside from other lightweight crews the main goal in life is to lower the heavies a peg or two, i love lightweights! go mighty lights!
oh and denmark are supreme. if we ever get the lw four i am in anywhere near this speed i shall spontaneously orgasm. peace
@Sigmarian ... the world record for the LM4- is 5:45,6 set by Denmark (Eskild Ebbesen, Victor Feddersen, Thomas Poulsen, Thomas Ebert) at the world cup finale in Lucerne in Switzerland back in 1999...
@danishguyky the irish had nothing to lose, so the just went out hard and tried to hang on...well yes, they died, but id rathe see that than the dutch who were behind all the time just to come back in the last 200m - without any success...

Go Denmark! So much power. They just took seat after seat during their final sprint, that was amazing!
The Irish totally flied & died. Kind of a shame.
