Hello dear friends, today we will talk about the mythical descent of the Seals in Spain. Although we know that canoeing is wanted to mention this beautiful tradition that attracts thousands of people around the sport that date back back to 1929 when Dionysus de la Huerta, Dr. Benigno Morán and Flow Fernandez made to tour of the river With Piloña (tributary of the Seals river), this tour led to the current declines of the it seals. In 1932 the output and final goal in Arriondas and Ribadesella fixed and the first edition was conducted competitively, 1935 eats the first inscriptions of Asturian not paddlers and in 1951 the first European participants signed up. In the fall of 1994 they took out dwells than 1,400 boats.

Check out is at 12 am with the participants and their boats out of the water in assigned positions. The blades of the participants are locked in a metal structure that releases at the time the light changes from red to green. The arrival is placed under the bridge about 20 kilometers Ribadesella, closing control is performed 30 minutes after the first boat arrives each category.

The Spaniard Julio Martinez wins absolute Saints raise is the leading athlete testing and Palencia Gang in the female category, you have won twenty editions of decline.

So you know, do not hesitate to get out there and hit it hard to paddle. Happy Day friends!

Rowing Crew exercises for the Beginner

Once the athletes are on the water it’s a good idea when their initially learning to have an experienced athlete in the bow that can just sit there and balance the boat. This same applies to a quad. Sitting tall with a straight back. Then practice what we call taps. This is tapping like this in order to get the concept of the forearm pushing the oar down. You will note that it’s not the shoulders pushing the oar. It’s simply the oar pushing the forearm pushing the oar down. Then this moving to the next stage where we’d have the tap and the separation. Again the forearm tapping and then the arm straight, but without the shoulders moving forward. 

The next sequence is where we go to the body over. We rock over like that rocking over from the pelvis. We go back to the finish again. Taps, body over position. So the sequence being to straighten the arms first and then rock over to the body. 

The next stage is to come down the slide. Holding that same body position all the way into the catch and then squaring up just before they get to the catch and taking the catch and then here we’re demonstrating taps of the catch. Again, put the blade in and it’s put in with the arms only and not by lifting the shoulders.

Tons of dead fish cleared from Rio rowing venue

Thirty-two tonnes of dead fish have been cleared out of the lagoon where Olympic rowing and canoeing events will take place at Rio 2016. Some experts believe pollution is to blame, while others claim it is down to a sudden drop in water temperature.

The Games begin in Rio de Janeiro on 5 August next year.

Tonnes of dead fish have been washed up at the Lagoa Rodrigo de Freitas at regular intervals for more than a decade. In February, thousands of dead fish were discovered in Guanabara Bay, which will host the sailing events. The venue has previously caused concern because of the levels of refuse and untreated sewage in the water.

In January, Brazilian government officials admitted they would miss their target of an 80% reduction in water pollution by the start of the Olympics.

Use these expert tips:

• Mistake 1: Forgetting to check the damper setting.
• Mistake 2: Rowing with only your arms. 
• Mistake 3: Mixing up the order of operations. 
• Mistake 4: Hunching your back during the stroke. 
• Mistake 5: Banging your butt into your heels or rushing. 
• Mistake 6: Shooting your butt out and having to jerk your upper body back.
