[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Crew also favors tall kids, and it's deeply weird to me that a sport that crams 9 kids in a small boat would want those kids to be tall. Go figure. [/quote] It's all about the physics of levers, just like long limbs help pitchers in baseball/softball. You want that leg drive to be as long and explosive as possible. Except for the coxswains, then you're looking to keep it under that min weight and put a few sandbags in so you hit it exactly. But of course coxing is a skill, not really an athletic endeavor. -former coxswain[/quote]
