- The men's boatrace 2024 was won by Cambridge, once more. Although, this year's technique differences were not as drastic as the years before. Many commentators praised Cambridge's superior ryhthm, and wondered why their stroke collapsed just one km before the finish line, when they were in a clear lead. This video analysis explains in depth and detail why and how it happened, and wha we all can learn from that.

I would really appreciate a video about why throwing the upper body forward is of no use. I have some trouble explaining why you can't rest on the handles and pull at the same time, and you explain very well Aram. Thank you.
Same here, would be great!
me too. For some younger athletes, I have a handful of explanations as to why the length is prepared from the back inversion rather than the front. But I would like to have a few more strong arguments😁
I think you captured the issue across both boats really well which bares out on the build up to the race. I believe Cambridge got a lot more on the water time as opposed to Oxford as flooding greatly reduced their time on the river = lots more time in the gym with linear C2s. When I win the lottery I definitely have a Biorower on the top of my wish list - cheers Aram
Thank you for your great feedback!
Great video, The whole point of rowing in crews is to do the same pressures at the same time, in the same form.
Not working the same way means working against each other, tiring each other out. Ocford Brookes use a lot of telemetry as you recommend for these top crews.
I would recommend watching last year's CUWBC stroke of 2023. a "blueprint" of how to set up a Boatrace crew.
She gave a good clear lead for the crew to follow.
Cambridge stroke a legend for going so deep and staying upright and not collapsing. However as an experienced rower he should know his importance as a stroke and not work himself to that point. A stroke in an eight should mainly focus on keep the rythm and technique and not on working and putting out the watts.
Nice analysis Aram, as usual! Hope to see you at Henley RR, will you be open to everyone or only in say the stewards enclosure? Also are you staying on for the Henley Masters 12/13 July?
Thank you! Looking forward to meet you at Henley! Will only be there for HRR, and have our booth at Barns Bar. Should be open to everyone.
I’ve heard Cambridge do a lot of work on rp3s (on land) and using telemetry (on the water) do you think that might have played a factor in their rhythm?
No. I do not think that this has a great effect. It is still a linear pull. What is more likely imho is the overall program
I can tell that this is the case.
Interesting stuff and thank you. But how do you explain the fact that Oxford performed better in the private fixtures? Against the likes of Oxford Brookes and Leander in the run up to the race. Which made the betting odds set in favour of an Oxford win?
What were these early race distances?
If you want to be as effective as possible when the blad is perpendicular to the boat, why isn't back first, then legs, then better rowing stroke? Legs generate more power than the backswing right?
Let me put this in a video
Basically you had two fours in the eight, or 2 pairs and a four.🙂
It was a same side pair and a six in the Cam boat, and lots of pairs and singles in the Oxford boat
