i would love it for someone to put up a brick wall on the far side where the cyclist are following the crews and see them all crash into that wall near the finish line :)
@poretobatido Thanks for that information. As for the guy I was talking about, he became the 5 seat of the NZ men's 8 for this last year's world championships.
My varsity eight boat does a 3/4 pop at the end of our races. Though we go 20 strokes reved up then another 20 strokes, 3/4 pop and finish. It gives you the extra stoke and power that why.
what type of erg times would each of these men be doing? for any of the fours, just general area. Because I know the current bowman of one of the coxless fours for new zealand and I was wondering if his erg time was any good compared to others. He's an U23 and he got a 5:59.9 lol just sub-6.
that's stupid. there is no point at all in sprinting if you're going to sprint at 3/4 slide, because the leg drive is what is going to make the boat go faster.
I love the commentary... "This is an amazing performance by the rest of the world!"

@poretobatido most low 5:50's i think, only the erg monkey's of the rowing world get to 5:40's, :P some GB rowers are but not many afaik.
