The ultimate guide to confidence in a Rowing Boat

“It is easy to get the impression that if we could just get a big enough engine and precise enough movements from a series of joints and lever arms, all problems would disappear. And yet we know better than to think that this is all there is – it wasn’t such things that brought most of us to the sport, after all; it was more visceral things – things that are felt rather than measured.”

Drills explained in this eBook:

  • “Hi Mom!”
  • “Tapping drills”
  • “Around the pin”
  • “Star Wars drill”
  • “One-legged sculling”
  • … and 4 more expert exercises to try!

Troy runs the Craftsbury Sculling Center and is a renown coach for scullers.  His expertise has helped athletes step up to US Rowing team representation as well as gain confidence in a rowing boat.
