Many people are convinced rowing is the ultimate team sport.
Everything - mind, body and boat - has to be working as one to
achieve a victory.
The mixed double scull crew of Jed Altschwager, 36, and Nikki Ayers,
32, believe in this theory and in their ability which has already
produced world-best times. "He's such an easygoing, laid-back Aussie
dude, so we got along straight away," Ayers said of their first
meeting.
