Bronte Surfboat News

Well, so far you have experienced the thrills & spills of big surf.
Now, I'd like to introduce you to the finer points of what we do. 
The rowing stroke is a complex and quite unnatural movement. For a boat to go fast, all 4 rowers have to be in time & move exactly in unison.
Combine this with inconsistent water height, waves, wind and other competitors attempting to move in roughly the same direction (occasionally perpendicular to the desired direction of competition). You're starting to get an idea of how technical this sport can get.

Our training has to reflect this, so I present to you 4 1/2 minutes of a flatwater session. It's not crash and bash, but it hopefully sheds light on a pretty technical sport.

Enjoy.
