2006 US Rowing Youth National Championships M8+ Final

[suchie22]

Wheres the Men's Light Eight race of 2006?

[TheMummy516]

Yeah just recently we rowed Saint Joe's Prep at City Championships in Philly. They got a 4:37 on a 1500 meter as a Freshman crew. We got a 4:56 with a crab. They still would of killed us though. St. Joe's is by far one of the best crews around. I'm the stroke seat for the Mainland Regional High School Freshman .

[attacker78]

am right in saying this isn't the st ignatus and st josephs in hunters hill and riverview.

[mmwildcats37]

you are correct this is St. Ignatius from San Francisco

[doubleodonnell]

St. Ignatius San Francisco

6 14 is a pretty shitty time for a national championship.

in sydney the schoolboy 8s tend to average around 6 minutes at a normal regatta and about 5 50 at national champs

[funfest101]

Speaking from personal experience, the weather at this lake has a tendency to be bad on finals day.

Last spring when i was there, the weather was in the 80's with almost no wind during heats, but the finals were delayed and some were cancelled due to a thunderstorm the next day. big head wind.

You can hear the wind on the microphone in this video.

[mmwildcats37]

yeah cuz in sydney the water probably doesn't have much of a headcurrent/headwind. and besides, these guys won henley that year...you can't honestly think that you guys were better

[skierboi0]

its impossible to tell without a race, not many people go to henley from AUS anyways. 3 seat of the ignatius boat fucking sucks though

[mmwildcats37]

y does he suck?

[mynameshoustin]

you are honestly retarded, SI was by far the fastest high school team for a while and there is a significant headwind during this race so u cleary hagve no idea what you are talking about

[funfest101]

so you are saying that SI had a slow time in this race in flat conditions? I'm not too sure about that one.

[mynameshoustin]

theres a headwind

[mynameshoustin]

ok, thats the past, this year newport won mens varsity 8 and lightweight 8...thats that most dominant a mens team can be

[bjbjbzz]

@mynameshoustin Prep is faster.

[pettet2231994]

wow. half those teams are from the nw. represent!

[Ouina1]

me and my bf just broke up.

[darthrev]

6:14. Thats annoying- must've been a hard headwind. What were the 2k averages of SI that year? Ours were 6:35

[imstricken534]

was this commentary on speakers on the race course? it sounds like theres an echo

[TheDirector4]

Alright the thing I love about this video is how close the announcer made the race sound at the end. We were never down to St. Joseph's. To answer the question below it is the St. Ignatius from San Francisco California. You can find more videos of our team on my youtube channel. Also the Australia Jr national champions never made it past the third round at Henley. We won that event. So you're right we are lucky we weren't rowing in Australia because it would have been a boring season.

[imstricken534]

uh, the rate is supposed to bring the rate down, but keep up power. It doesnt matter how high your rate is (or low) if you dont have power.

[iloveblondieandemmi]

haha...srry. its california

[iloveblondieandemmi]

is this the ignatius from chicago or california?

[27LCR]

if you want to see some good hard racing check out the Barrington Cup 2008 (Nationals Schoolboy race) in Australia. Fast time of 6:00 but the semi-finals were even quicker with 4 schools going under 5:53.

[achilles084]
