  • 6:50 WEAK DUDE... your pretty big dude u should be getting 6:30s at your body type

  • @azodktk actually fast arms away is desirable in a boat. It allows for the ability for the boat to run well on the water. It also allows you to row at a high stroke rate without rushing the slide. It all starts with quick, but controlled arms away, followed by a controlled slide and a solid catch. Fast arms are not bad in a boat.

  • I would also like to correct bsholl09's comment, which is heinously inaccurate as of April 2010:

    THREE time Gilman Cup award winning.

  • yeah thats what i meant legs down then back extends in the drive. i've not heard of the gilman cup but good for him.

  • bsholl09,

    I understand your defensiveness to Tomgoldswain's comment, as you clearly appreciate Charlie's rowing prowess. However, Tomgoldswain does not speak "complete and utter hogwash;" he is very right in implying that the fast hands away motion that Charlie exhibits in this video is undesirable on the water. On the other hand, you, sir, are correct in saying that it is desirable during a 2K. You are arguing two different points that really go hand-in-hand. Let's not dirty the waters here!

  • tomgoldswain, i find your critique of charlies erging to be pretentious and downright inaccurate. he does a superb job aligning his body early in the recovery for a powerful drive. all of your suggestions are complete and utter HOGWASH. you WANT to have a fast arms away and a delayed knee bend. next time you want to give advice, try sitting on your thumb for a while into a good idea cums. Charlie is the stroke seat for two consecutive Gilman Cup award winning crews. check yo self.

  • ok but you wouldnt get away with it on the water because of hand heights, your slightly to lent over too early on from the finish/beginning of recovary phase, feet need to go one higher and timing from the finish of hands before legs isnt quite there you tend to do it but not smoothly enough i.e. you get your bum under quickly at the end as it is countering what you didnt do from the finish. earlier leg bend and gradual body swing is needed, it should help catch timing. otherwise good positions.
