Just a Small Club Sculler

I row with one of the smallest rowing clubs in British Colombia. We have the lowest fees and probably some of the oldest boats in Canada. Grandfather was a rower, Dad was a rower, now I'm a rower and very proud of it. -Living life and loving it- (although when we erg, I very much question my love for life... and everything single thing else for that matter) "Anyone who says that they like/love/enjoy erging is lying" -Words to live by.

The specifics of the sport aren’t as important as understanding that work is far more important than talent.

One of the unique aspects of rowing is that novices strive to perfect the same motions as Olympic contenders. Few other sports can make this claim. In figure skating, for instance, the novice practices only simple moves. After years of training, the skater then proceeds to the jumps and spins that make up an elite skater’s program. But the novice rower, from day one, strives to duplicate a motion that he’ll still be doing on the day of the Olympic finals.
