FAQ
Ideally yes, while it is not mandatory. Good coordination allows a weak rower to beat a strong one.
Clothes as you ride bike:
- For warm weather conditions: t-shirt, shorts (or pocketless pants if possible), hat (cap) and sun-protection lotion;
- If it's raining usually you'll not notice it but a waterproof jacket is better than nothing and will protect you from catching a cold.
- We do not work with athlets younger than 21 and older than 65 years old;
- Weight 50-110kg is comfortable for rowing. Bigger weight is acceptable but rowing will not be that convenient.
First time, we will meet you at the Lukoil gas station at Serebryanii bor (Tamanskaya Street, 5, building 2).
The first training will take 2.5 hours (or slightly less) while following training will take 1,5-2 hours (mostly chatting and laughing).
