List of rowing blades – National team oars

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from National Team oars)

The table below shows the way the rowing blades are painted in international competitions of rowing in which national teams participate. Each team associated with the International Rowing Federation uses a specific model. This pattern may be a reproduction of the national flag on the oar blade, but it may also be a fanciful motif chosen by a given rowing federation. The left oar is usually a mirror image of the right oar.[1][2][3]
