| 'Take a 10 for Michael' Day
Tuesday, January 19th
|
On Tuesday, January 19th, we will be dedicating all of CRI's meters rowed in the January Challenge to Michael Dooley, a high school rower from California who has been rowing with our para group for the last few weeks while undergoing treatment for cancer at Mass General.
Tuesday is his last day of treatment, so lets let him know we are pulling for him by taking just one more Power 10 for him at the end of your workout today. Andrew Hess will be posting everything to CRI social media during the day for Michael, so be sure to send a quick pic, message, or whatever of your Power 10 over to hessandrewj.cri@gmail.com.
Let's send Michael as much power as possible! Good Luck Michael!!

Director of Facilities/Boatman
We are excited to announce a refreshed presentation format for our January Symposium! We will host a Round Table discussion (rather than a formal presentation) with a two-person, expert panel discussing the subject of rigging for sweep rowing. We will engage and learn from one another through our energetic discussion and expert led discussion.
All New Round Table Format!
BLADES, RIGGING & GEARING FOR OPTIMAL BOAT SPEED: Advanced Rigging Methods
We will examine optimal rigging using these guiding questions:
- After the boat is rigged square (spreads, pitches) what do I change next?
- Can I perform a test to discover my crew's optimal gearing?
- How do I know it's a rower problem or rigging problem?
- How do I confirm that my rigging adjustments are effective for my crew?
- When observing my crews, what should I look at to determine if the rig is effective or ineffective?
- Should my less skilled crews be rigged the same as my fastest, most-skilled?
