Harry Mahon, one of two coaches of the GBR 8+, was my coach. This eight is a beautiful demonstration of how much technique matters. No eight has yet achieved such perfection. Harry Mahon is awesome, rest in peace Harry.

Wow, it takes intense endurance to not even let your head wander off of the back of the head of the person in front of you. The people that can do it I admire because I cannot and that is just mentally difficult to wrap my head around. It takes SERIOUS DISCIPLINE to not move your head at all and I have only seen one competitive rower with the ability. That is one of my old crew coaches, Coach Pat.
