Stroke Analysis

[[old] rick-the-chemist]

Ok <br /><br />I've managed to get a video of myself rowing and upload it onto zippy videos, the quality is reduced for some reason, i'll try and rectify this. <br /><br />If you fancy, have a look and let me know what you think is right/wrong. I've got an idea myself but i'd like to see what you folks think. <br /><br />If you want to see more then i can email you a much clearer longer version. <br /><br />I hope this link works <br /><br /><a href='http://www.zippyvideos.com/843349719208 ... ech_short/' target='_blank'>http://www.zippyvideos.com/843349719208 ... _short/</a> <br /><br />Rick <br />

Dear Rick,<br /><br />Very nice video...and I like that your video site will supply thumbnails for forums like this one that will launch the video straight away: <a href='http://www.zippyvideos.com/843349719208 ... ech_short/' target='_blank'><img src='http://i1.zvhost.com/1/q/qserw10b.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /></a><br /><br />While I have no comment, I thought I'd mention that if you don't get the sort of analysis you're looking for here, I believe there are members who provide professional analysis of rowing videos (<a href='http://concept2.ipbhost.com/index.php?showuser=568' target='_blank'>Xeno Muller</a>, for example). <br /><br />Best wishes,<br /><br />Alissa

But right off the bat it appears to me that you let your hands go way down at the catch and then lift them on the way back so that the chain is bouncing. I think you should keep your hands more level throughout the stroke.<br />
