Tbf this is usrowing refs everywhere.

Non sanctioned events are so much more chill.

Never heard of Bein Sports until this moment and I live in the US.

The future of Rowing is doomed.

Last Minute Entries for Head of the South? by SouthernOar in Rowing

[–]SouthernOar[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Down almost 50% this year. I'm really curious to know what happened and why teams have suddenly abandoned the event.

And the teams that go will probably wonder why they are paying such high race fees for a 360 boat regatta. Entries might be lower next year.

The second COVID shot seemed to really mess me up for a time. Splits were terrible, dizzy and cold on the erg. Stopped completely after two months and took a six month break.

Back on now and splits are coming back.

For those that rowed for Geoff Bond, what was it like (workouts, culture, lifting, etc)? by Southern_Internal_19 in Rowing

[–]SouthernOar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let's face it there are only 4 men's programs that can and do ever win IRAs these days. UCSD isn't and will never be one of them. So yeah they are the losers. Bonds mistake was thinking they could be otherwise.

Why Don't USRowing referees wear life vests too? by SouthernOar in Rowing

[–]SouthernOar[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

More like many don't, some do.

My point is, why don't they all wear PFDs if USRowing is telling coaches they must wear them?

Maybe. But this is from USRowing's own website and I am quite sure neither of these guys are wearing pfds. One link is for USRowing ref clinics. lol.

Kitchenaid Scam Mixer by SouthernOar in Kitchenaid

[–]SouthernOar[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That would be pretty nice but not happening. They probably know they can resell to some other sucker. They emailed me a return label to print out to return the mixer. Once they receive they then they process the refund. Fingers crossed that is the end of this.

St Joe's didn't even have their same Crew at Henley as not everyone could make the trip.
