Double Sculls Round 1 | Henley Royal Regatta 2024

Great to hear many positives being taken from this season into next. You and Big Dog Jacko were up against some serious opposition in all the races but it’s Henley and nobody has an easy race. The Lwt Germans were just being typical top quality lightweights and were able to spin it up another gear from halfway and there’s only so much Yam to cover that off. Give our regards to Jacko as he was probably running on fumes halfway through his singles race against his compatriot. Pleasure to follow and see what you have achieved this year (so far!!) and looking forward to you kicking on 😎

The Germans finished 5th in World Cup I You stood well against these tough opponents

Cam, good on you for being so open and positive with both the ups and downs of the journey. Next season awaits!

I m 13 years old and I row too competitively You're rowing damn well !!!🎉 You're my idol !!!

great race, you really get a good understanding of how far it is from the onboard camera.

Thanks for sharing your experiences, Cam. Obviously pouring your heart into it. You can be proud of that for sure - and it sounds like you’re recognizing the quality and importance of what you’re doing. Cheers to you.

I personally really enjoyed watching you guys (someone I knew) competing - made watching Henley Royal Regatta more personal shouting at the TV - seriously well done guys bravo and I look forward to seeing you there again stronger and better next year 👏

As a viewer i can feel the positive change in mentality and succes in your recent training, it’s been a pleasure to watch recently!

i saw myself taking pictures of you in this video lol

Thank you for the great videos and journey; positive as always regardless of outcome which is refreshing and inspiring. You and Jacko can be proud to have competed at Henley Royal Regatta without having to go through qualification rounds ina year with a lot of entries. An Olympic year is a tough one at HRR: all the top scullers are peaking for an Olympic year and those that don't qualify for the Olympics will set their sights on HRR, where they can compete on a prestigious international stage and maybe go head-to-head with an Olympian, and the Olympian is training through HRR.. Who can forget watching Obreno beat Drysdale in 2016 to win the Diamond Sculls. I see that Gutierrez has dominated his next two rounds. He has a unique style but is doing well with it so far! I watched the German 2x going through the next round. I noticed that their blades showed the same depth as yours, with the stroke seat oar shaft going so deep that it almost looked caught. I wondered if that stroke seat issue was partly due to the river station and partly due to how the stroke seat sits in the water.

Tough race today, I was watching at the start of the course, looked like you guys we're going well. Good luck for next time.

There are a lot of positives to take from this season Cam. You inspire me to do more. All the best.

Good work out there on the water! Some very strong competition in it this year! Love the look of that cobra!

Good on you Cam, the determination to keep learning and improving is so admirable and glad to hear you give yourself credit for the improvements you've made this year

Great job und thanls for that fantastic video!

Results take care of themselves but the journey is what matters. Well done on your awesome season and allowing us to share it with you. Cheers

Good race Cam and Jacko, tough to have that initial lead and the inches work their way through you. I don't want to have this be a time to give criticism but both of you dig so deep in the water to put the power down, it's actually having the oar travel less distance because it doesn't go through the full circumference of the stroke shallower in the water. Also eating that much water on the shaft of the oar on the exit is like throwing a baseball and then slowing it down just before you let it go, where you want the most speed for the recovery time. That said, amazing to see you race, had my heart in my mouth. Racing at Henley and in the shape you're in, I could never dream of getting myself to that level. Very inspirational. Love the Henley attire too, very crisp. Enjoy the festivities and thank you for another season Cam!! Happy 4th from the States

Really tough field this year, which you were part of!

Tough race, tough conditions and even tougher opponents. You held your own for almost 2 thirds of the race, but unfortunate it was not to be. Kudos for being there though and next time .........

Wish you luck next time
