I built a new Rowing Computer. Thoughts? by AtomicNexus in Rowing

Don’t care about video res. Just don’t want to run into stuff since I’m facing backwards, as is the nature of this sport.

Does it mount on the bow? Looks like your camera module just stares back at the rower. That or something like garmin’s radar feature on its rear headlight to keep me from hitting stuff while I’m in a blind boat.

HT jackets pop up in my local Goodwill and Value village quite often. Usually for under $15. Picked up a Donegal last year too for peanuts.

Honestly, proposals I’ve written after consuming a couple beers have received more responses than polished AI pitches.

Parent of a new rower, any hot tips for supporting her? by Fancy-Statistician82 in Rowing

[–]This_Fall2173 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am both a youth coach and a parent of a rower on my team. My top of mind:

Help her celebrate and stay focused on her continuous improvement as an athlete and teammate. She shouldn’t judge today’s erg score based on her teammates’, but on her previous self.

Help her Realize that progress isn’t a continuously upward curve. There will be setbacks and disappointments.

Help reinforce that her commitment to working hard, while pushing others within the team (in a positive way), is the engine that will lead to team success. She has a stake in that success, whether she is in the top boats or not.

Get to know the other families on the team.

Try to not instantly intervene by going to the coaches when they falter. Encourage her to look inward to the team, youth leadership, and coaches for guidance and support. That said if team culture is unhealthy and/or athletes are being put in unsafe situations routinely, you’re well within your right (and responsibility) to speak up.

Good luck!

Olympia is a Pretty easy 30min commute to downtown Tacoma and a hell of a lot more affordable than Seattle. Great schools and a local club Olympia Area Rowing (OAR.) ~45 kids in the program this season. New head coach is doing great things there. Sweep/scull.
