Washington 1 photo wins hands down. My sympathies to the Western Ontario coxswain who looks out of control and in for a painful landing.

Central Catholic Coxswain official weight at youth nationals was 122 lbs.

washington 1 is just an epic picture. its probably the best height-wise as well, but its definitely the most stunning picture- it looks like theres no dock and theyre all standing on flat, moody water.

Control?? Control is for the recovery.....cox toss is all about altitude Washington I hands down. Granted UW has an advantage, but it's not their size. It's a benefit of practice - they toss a cox after virtually every race......

Gotta keep in mind that wash 1, central catholic, wash 3, and ithica's tosses look like the cox jumped and remained in complete control whilst in the air. The essence of the cox toss is that the coxswain is completely helpless during the entire process, which I think is captured perfectly in Trinity's and Michigan's photos.

gotta keep in mind that some of these kids (central catholic, fairmount, st johns) are in high school. Those Washington guys are a lot bigger than them.
