Wooow cam, Watching your progress in a single these last few years has really motivated me to finally get myself back in a boat instead of keep coaching, It's been incredible to watch just how fast you've gotten. Maybe it's the angle and the equipment you use for recording, but I feel like your boat used to stop at the catch, now you're flying through so smoothly. Congrats for the regatta!

Thanks for the support! I’m not sure either but let’s go with a combination of both! Definitely rowing better but have recently change equipment! 😂

Congratulations Cam. Brilliant win! All the hard work is paying off.

Thanks Tom! I appreciate it! Been there from the start!

Congrats! Love this journey you are on!

You put your eggs on the table as we usually say in Spain, and did an amazing regatta. Thaks Cam for filming the process, can't wait for more!

It came out well! Thank you!

Absolutely fantastic Cam 🏅 I was following the live results on Saturday and when you were 3rd fastest in a very close group of four I thought - game on! Then the final result came in with the win - what a reward after the last 2 years plus coming away with another MET 1x Gold!!! On the start the 3 boats in shot had the advantage but to row through and win was brilliant big man (shame you cannot keep the cup but your name is on it). It’s the first race too where you looked far more stable at the catch and despite the obligatory visit to the pain cave, you were not boarder line going to chuck up 😎

Yeah as soon as I saw the result in the time trial I knew I was in a good place rowing wise! Unfortunately no name on the cup anymore they stopped that a long time ago!! 100% more in the tank. Just wasn’t fully confident!

But a major confidence boost at the end of the day in that the training is working for both fitness and technique plus the variation, to any doubters, is a big key to motivation - next task: beating a grumpy German at HRR 🤞

Great row and PR!

Well done Cameron! As a rower myself, it's always nice to see people achieving PB's regardless of level (But of course at your level it's much more impressive). And what a venue to make it in!

Great video. Very fun to watch! Coastal videos, I think, are a bit harder to grasp than just 'go fast for 2k'. Great job

Hey Cam, massive congrats on your brilliant efforts at the Met regatta! I for one would love to see a video on how you have varied your training over the last 6 months or so to have achieved such significant progress/improvement. Have you still been doing the same amount of weights & ergs for example? Has the Coastal rowing meant less still water rowing? Did all those miles on the Gold Coast help do you think? I think these topics would be great for a future video. Again, a huge well done. Personally, I hope you do decide to go to HRR, you are going so quick at present!!

As a rower myself i know how hard it can be at the 1k mark at dorney and you had so much speed all the way through massive congrats!

Love seeing my man going fast. Just one thing i noticed from my german junior rowing pov: you putting your blades pretty deep in the water right from the catch. Are you doing that on purpose, kind of like Drysdale or smth?

Great job. Big fan of your channel. Any thoughts on those Comp blades? I’m in the market for a new set, but don’t live near any other rowers so I can’t try them before I buy them.

@CameronBuchan

Ай бұрын

Thanks! I’ve been using them for a few years now and I like them. To me they are easier to row with than other blades. I would say easier to lock on at the front. It can be a little bit of a personal preference though!

A bit more speed available through going in a little less deep.

Hey Cam. Good race! Just by the way - there is a better way of getting out of a sculling boat (taught me by Ivor Lloyd): a. Undo the water side gate but keep it closed leaving the blade in position. b. Put the two handles together out in front of you. c. Hold the two handles with the outside hand (waterside). d. Put your inside hand (jetty-side) on the thole-pin pushing it onto the jetty. e. Pull on the handles and stand up in the scull and step out. Give it a bash.
