Tuesday Sculling

Sculling; AM Practice 9.22 from Sam Taylor on Vimeo.


10.4k in a quad & double this AM; wonderful flat water and we got waked exactly once; a great morning to be rowing in Portland. We're continuing to work on teaching some of our folks to scull and developing the skills of those who are already comfortable with that side of the sport. A lot of the confidence with sculling comes from finding connection on the smaller blades; once you do the feel is of a strong connection that hangs directly through the fingers. A very good skill to transfer back into the sweep boat.
