"In rowing, not only is the intensity of energy expenditure greater than that of other physical endeavors but the possibilty for exertion can become greater.
Ordinarily the limitation of a crew is its weakest member; however,
at the moment of transcendence, which oarsmen refer to as swing, the limit of a crew is beyond the strongest."
Stephen Kiesling
