Rowing Class

I wish I could have learned to row on land. Timing your body position so the oar doesn't hit your knees on the way back is much more difficult than you'd imagine. The gear in the photo makes it impossible to avoid this by just dipping the blade lower, too.

Rowers

We didn't have anything this elaborate when I learned to row. I also like the way that they seem to have set this up in the metalworking shop.
