I am a novice coxswain of an inexperienced crew. We have a regatta in a week and our biggest problem is my rowers are squaring at different times and I'm struggling to help them. Do you have any suggestions of what I should do or how to explain to them how to match up?
@@frostylilfrog do you have a coach, and if so, where do they want you to square up? I like picking a specific place they should try to square up. For instance, as your hands pass over the rigger. For a novice crew, I think an earlier square up is better so the blade is fully prepared. You can also remind them to match the roll up of stroke seat, and call individual people to square up earlier or later.
Thanks for posting this
Great communication on the changes
