4 x4 Erg Relays with Crew Team

About two weeks ago we joined with the crew team for our annual tradition of 4x4 relays. The teams are three people: a mix of crew members and skiers, each person does a 4 minute pull and then trades off to a team member. Every member does 4 pulls. The team that pulls the most distance at the end of 48 minutes wins! No prizes, just Pride.

This year the competition was made even more exciting because the crew coaches had a big screen set up - hundreds of wires running around between ergs and a central computer and the screen - that showed a live image of the leading boats!
