Motion Analysis with Digital Video

The Rowers

Does body proportion affect the rowing stroke? In rowing, the height of the individual affects the length of the stroke. We are going to compare two subject of the same height to find how different body proportions affect the length of the stroke.

This is interesting to us because we all row and what to discovery if different proportions affect the length of the stroke because the longer the stroke to more power the individual is applying.
