What is rowing?

Boating is a water sport. There were dragon boat races in ancient times. The ancient dragon boat is the modern boat, and the boat is also a tool for crossing the river. In the modern Olympics, there is also a kayaking event, with four-person kayaks and two-person kayaks. The race schedules are also different, and rowing also requires skills. Now let me take you to get familiar with the various types of boats and rowing techniques.

Rowing is a sport in which a boat is moved across the water using human power to paddle. According to the type of boat, there are three types: racing rowing, kayaking and rowing boat. Over the past few years, the techniques for both rowing and paddling in whitewater adventures have improved. Although the principle is the same, the technology is differentiated by the two types of rafts: single-paddle boats and row-paddle boats.

A single-paddle boat is a boat equipped with a fixed frame and a row of oars and operated by one person. A rowboat is one without a frame or stand and is operated by a captain and a team of people accustomed to using canoe paddles. To battle a river, boaters must combine their whitewater adventure skills with the following paddling techniques. Rowing sports rely on human power to row and sail, which plays a good role in improving physical health and cultivating young people's love for shipping. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, rowing clubs or sports stations were established in Harbin, Shanghai, Beijing, Guangzhou, Hangzhou, Wuhan, Qingdao and other cities, and various rowing activities were carried out.

Single-paddle boat operation skills

1. A rower's boat is calm and straight, going downstream, which makes people feel extremely happy. However, in rapids he faces the rushing current, sees the obstacles ahead, and tries to block the current, which slows the boat down and gives him time to maneuver the boat from one side to the other. The basics are: lean forward and sideways with your arms straight.

2. Put the paddle into the water.

3. Pull both paddles back, using the strength of your whole body. Each stroke should be a continuous motion with force applied evenly to each oar. A basic technique is to "face the danger head on and pull hard."

In the future, everyone can use the above techniques when going out to sea or to the lake. Friends and relatives can paddle their own boats and slowly swim in the lake, enjoying the beautiful scenery in the lake, which is also a beautiful picture. At the same time, you can also hold a series of sports such as rowing competitions, which are beneficial to the body and mind and can also increase feelings.
