Glide across calm waters using the full-body rhythm that has powered boats for millennia. Start on a lake or protected bay to master the catch, drive, and recovery sequence—the meditative stroke rhythm becomes addictive once you find your flow.

I rowed the 3 seat in a quad and it was so much fun, I can't wait to go again! We practiced rowing singly, and in pairs, and didn't quite make it to rowing all together, but I just know that boat will pick itself up and fly if we all row together. [...] Ergs are great but the experience just don't compare to being on the water. [...] I started to get a sense that we could really move that thing along, and the feeling of motion is exhiliarating.

The race on Lake Onandaga that day is one of those quintessential rowing moments that stays for life. Our swing was surreal. The boat jumped lively with each stroke and seemed to skim over the water. After 500m, we were a full length up on Brown and open water on the rest of the pack. But we knew Brown was not going to go away. They made a charge and pulled even at 1000m. The second 1000m of the race was a dogfight! One seat up, one seat down, all the way across the lake.
