First time in a single in over a year

- Today was finally the day when not only did I get the opportunity to go out on the water it was in a single too! I was quite apprehensive about heading out in the single as I have not been out on the water for a while let alone in a single scull!
Today was one of those days where it was really enjoyable and left thinking what a great journey it has been so far with the Yamsquad and I am looking forward to seeing what we can do this year!

Please put all of your quotes on a Yamsquad t-shirt that would eternal free speed
What a fantastic idea! #yamsquad
Beautiful single - may you row well and row hard! Focus on the feathering and being crisper at the catch ... even when just out for a paddle. Create new habits early and it will become second nature.
Definitely Declan! A lot to come! #yamsquad
Maybe once I get more than an hour of sculling under my belt! #yamsquad
Good job getting your feet wet! Only two adjustments need to be made, one is playing with the boat parts, and the other is playing in your mind as you rediscover being on the water again.
I like that beautiful craft, and you loved what you felt in that beautiful craft! P.S. Two points for the name Scully!!
Thanks Gary! Think the mind is the biggest part! #yamsquad
Sigh.... 60cm of snow here still. And 30cm of ice on the river. Gotta love 🇨🇦
What helped me a lot in the 1x was focusing on building pressure/handle speed from the catch to the finish, then trying not to manipulate the blades out of the water at the release, just letting the finish "happen" without thinking about it much. If the boat is set as the blades pop out, you don't have to adjust anything during the recovery, just trolley to the catch to take the next stroke. Easy. That in turn helps with squaring the blades and getting a deft catch. A drill that may help is to get a light but quick catch, apply only 50% pressure for the first half of the stroke, and then build to 100% at the release.
As for getting your blades off the water during the recovery, once you find your balance that will almost happen by itself. Save your focus for other things.
Another thing that helped me was the mantra, "many many people have done this, I can do it too!" Repeat as needed, helps make you relaxed and confident.
Thanks Paul! #yamsquad
If it was a quad it could be called the YamQuad xD
😂 😂 Yyeessssss
Deep joy! 😃 So great to be connected with nature and sunshine whilst exercising! 'Blue fingers for me today on my bike ride, sunny but very wind-chilly here in the glorious vale of Belvoir. I was so slow, especially on the headwindy return leg, but did not give a flying 💩 . Thanks for dumbing down the rigging for rowing-dads (muchos appreciated 👍). Boat name? "Bath time" 😂.
Mr Boggins, as always, a pleasure. Even though I know my tekkers were hopeless, going slow and the water wasn't ideal I had a great time and enjoyed it! Pleasure being out there! When I was rigging it dawned on me that some people may never have seen certain parts of the boat before! Pleasure to help! #yamsquad
Oliver Zeidler, Kteil Borch, Mahe Drysdale and All other single sculler, should be scared. The Yam Single Sculler come for a competition and will best them😉
I appreciate that Adrian #yamsquad
The PLOW (boat name)- for yam farming
Original! Good work! #yamsquad
New to your channel! I took my first outing for 13 years in a single, since I was a junior, a couple weeks ago. It's soo addictive! Best feeling :)
It is isn't it! Then it's chasing that feeling!
“What a vessel!” You know it Canadian boats kick ass
Name the boat the Santa Mariyam!
"And as Yam drinks the...pond?"
Boatname: yammy
INfectious enthusiasm!
Positivity breeds positivity! #yamsquad
Glad to see you made it on the water. The best scullers when they're paddling at the pace you were always look, for lack of a better word, very zen. Never quite managed that myself. What size boat is that?
I felt very relaxed even if my body was telling a different story! I think 95-103kg!
"The root of all yaming" ;-)
Glad you're back otw. :)
Boat Name: Yeah Buddy!
Maybe Hudson can use your boat name as a coupon code to offer the Yamsquad a discount on a new USP single!
The golden yam
Maybe the yammerhead shark (because USP+ yamsquad)
Cant wait for this !!
HMS yam
Erg is bae t-shirt?
Yammer Hammer!
Boat name.....
Yamdaddy
If you ever have a space in your schedule and can get to cornwall. You can try on some real water in a pilot gig. Fixed seat rowing is where it's at on the open sea. @haylegigclub
Boatname: The rising YAM / The rising SUN / YOIRIDE / #YAM RAM / #YAMSQUADS legend / #YAMSQUADS CEO
From 3:27 I did pick up quiet a fair amount of (for me) new rowing and rig vocabulary! Suggestion: One episode about english rowing vocabulary for non (english) native speaker
It will take a time untill you will be able to get yourself ragged in the single. Try to integrate some high rate strokes without too much pressure in every training will help to get to that point ;)
Suggested boat name: HMS Yam
Probably could tap down a bit more to get both those blades off the water, feels much smoother and makes you go much faster
Definitely could! Another thing to work on! #yamsquad
Cameron Buchan it will feel so much better when you get the hang of it, will just take some time 👍
@@maxstark4800 looking forward to it! #yamsquad
How about 'The YamScull'?
Let the oar handles reside right where your fingers meet your palms. You want to have a hook grip with your fingers around the handles. This should help you hang on the oars and push through the foot stretchers!
Definitely Bob! Something to work on as I get used to sculling!
You should beat Mahe Drysdale at olympics😏👌👌👌
Now that would be epic!

Yammy mc yamface
have you ever row in a single before ? Lol sculling is not your thing ! wish we could see you getting better and going faster w/ time !
he says at the start of the video that he hasn't rowed in a single in over year
I have been in a single before, not sure if I'd say I've rowed one before! Looking forward to the improvements!
ngl, your late squaring up triggers my anxiety
Me too!
I raced (and won!) my first ever race as a novice on this stretch of water at UBBC
Cam, you can tell that made a helluva difference, you were beaming!! Well done mate, finally watching a rower again and not someone buggering about in a Crossfit Box. Boat name, Yamonit. Sculling, you look so tense, understandably, so relax especially the shoulders. You're a fantastic sweep oarsman, you're now going to get all the Yamsquad telling you how to scull!! Should be great fun. Looks a great new piece of water for us all to get to know. Just a thought to throw out there... would Bristol Uni be ok for you to run a sculling camp of some kind nearer the summer? On and off water coaching for a weekend? I'd stick my single on the roof and head down...
Thanks Kevin! Still enjoy the land training though! Relaxing the body will probably be the biggest thing! With the yamsquad coaching help the should be done nice improvements! Camp wise, what an amazing idea! #yamsquad
Depending on how you pronounce your surname your boat could be The Buccaneer. That's much more acceptable than my first idea of naming the boat after an engine part, The Camshaft.
Mark Ricketts nice
Boat name: Sweet Potato
Great video, so good to see you back on the water and you looked like you were buzzing afterwards :)
Like it Rik! Yeah I hoped it would come across! #yamsquad
You could name the boat "YamShark"
is cam in the gb rowing team?
Hi Hamish! I am not on the GB squad #yamsquad
drop the hammer in the Yammer(as in what your boat should be called😉)
Looks like u scratched the rigger at the start.
You should run a camp for your followers... Like if you gave 6-12 months notice if I could make it work I'd Def come to that!
Very interesting idea! I'd love to do that! #yamsquad
Boaty McBoatface
Name it the HMS Yam
So you own the boat?
very nice boat 👌🏼
Zero dislikes I love to see it
Free yam
You did good! The boat I'll be using will be what we call a bathtub. Still can't get on the water in Eastern Washington.
Thanks Guy! I've never been in one of the bathtubs so you have that opportunity over me! Hopefully can get out soon! #yamsquad
Quick question how should I pace myself for breaking 7 on my 2k?
That's a big question. Really depends on you as an individual! I'd negative split and start above 145 then sprint at the end! But that's just me!
Do you call the most handy device a riger jigger or a spanner
Well they are two different tools! One with two different sizes I'd call a rigger jigger!
Don’t name your single. Naming a personal single is pointless
Makes for some good fun though
Your sculling looks much better in this video than in the other videos where you’re in the single! Well done Cam :)!!
FINALLY! The real thing again.....I am so happy :-)
