Yeah! Originally I wanted to use the C2 500m race of Moscow 2014 but the video quality was too bad. I think the world cup race in Szeged looked almost as good

I´d really like to but I don´t have enough time 😮‍💨 I still follow everything tough

So you are an actual eyewitness😳 Some race footage would be really awesome. I'd really like to come back to you when I need a record of that year again. Appreciate it

@@paddletier3439 anytime ;) just let me know

I already made one😏 ruclips.net/video/XgCfFpyaI9o/видео.html

I´ve never been entirely sure why his hand position is so low. Of course I tried it myself but it felt terrible😅

@@paddletier3439 My coach was Hungarian, and also encouraged me to paddle with a low bottom hand. He said it is easier to move earth with a spade with a hand close to the spade head than with your hands close together - same in canoeing.

​@@jvkanufan8115 Hungarian canoe racers have a tendency to have a pretty wide grip on the paddle, that actually in my mind allows being a little more relaxed when you are not in pulling. They do teach to grip your bottom hand under 1/3 of the total paddle length, that means pretty close to blade (hope you understand what I mean)

@@tomasjanostiak9524 👍

I´ve always thought that Attila had kind of a mainstream technique compared to other Hungarians (Kolonics, the Safran Brothers and Tamas Kiss are way more extreme). Although I didn´t say it in the video his technique is 100% the reason why he was so strong against a headwind. Bodyweight on the paddle is more or less free energy compared to just pulling the paddle.

@@paddletier3439 Gyorgy Zala's body was pretty much below horizontal at the catch. Extreme but admirable too.

​@@paddletier3439 In fact his low body position during catch (hence low resistance in the air) was probably a reason. He eliminated a lot of negative breaking effect.. other factors I did mention. I am little confused with "kind of mainstream technique" but you may have a point. btw. my favourite technique is that of Imre Pulai :)

@@jvkanufan8115 Zala was completely under my radar🤯 I just now realised how good his technique was an how frickin jacked he looked (and still looks)

@@paddletier3439 Yeah - he's pretty amazing. Just got the most out of himself in every way I think. My Hungarian coach pointed to him as the model for me.

He is on the list of Hall of Fame champions I plan on making a video about

I´d really like to do that but I have way too many ideas and not nearly enough time

Thank you so much!

Sadly I don´t have much time at the moment. But I promise that that there will be new videos at some point!

Kolonics will get a Hall of Fame video as sure as eggs is eggs

100%

Rt

Good job

Another one for my list... can only be a matter of decades until I find the time🙈

Thanks for the clue! I have to admit that every new Plastex since 2014 looks exactly the same to me😬

Pulai was probably too overpowered and got nerfed🤷‍♂️😅 He has some huge wins as a champion in the co-op division though

Olympic champion and 4x world champion is more than 99.9% athletes ever achvieve :)

If you just want to watch the race this is the link: ruclips.net/video/vmsQvZMTnL4/видео.html At some point I will also make a recap

On my list👍

А Вихман есть?

Working on it
