Breast practise?

Gurtrude has been telling me that she has been part of an ongoing CBRC founded discussion regarding women's physique and the effects it has on their rowing.

I am told there is a school of thought being promoted that states that for those with larger appendages on the upper body, the "body over" phase can happen quite quickly. Once in motion these significant weights are difficult to control, which in turn leads to faster slide speeds...

Whether this is the basis upon which the captain will be selecting crews remains to be seen - but I am volunteering for the "Official Sizing Committee" which will undertake monthly appraisals.

Our first candidate?

Crusher!
