Hand circle shapes Plot out the shape of the

hand circles for each rower, average them over a

section of the outing and overlay them for comparison.

Balance How does the tilt angle vary through

the stroke (down to bow side or down to stroke

side). Use the hand circle shapes to understand

the route cause of any balance problems.

Boat Dynamics Accelerometer measurements

show how the boat acceleration varies through

the stroke, including the peak deceleration and

the time taken front front stops before a positive

acceleration is achieved. This allows you to

optimise the dynamics at the catch.

Hand speed synchronization Measure how

the hand speeds vary through the stroke. In the

recovery this shows any differences in hands away

and leg recovery speeds. In the power stroke, the

horizontal speed of the blade shows how the catch

has been placed.

The graph below shows the vertical

hand height for each crew member.

The red vertical line is front stops

and the blue line is the finish.

In this case the rower shown in

pink has the blade covered first.
