skulling
This term refers specifically to a technique in rowing where the rower handles two oars simultaneously, one in each hand. It is distinct from sweep rowing, where each rower holds a single oar with both hands. The term evokes a sense of balance and individual coordination, as the rower must synchronize both sides of the boat to maintain a straight course.
In a sporting context, skulling is often associated with competitive racing or leisure rowing in narrow shells. Because it describes both the activity and the specific method of propulsion, it functions seamlessly as both a gerund (the sport) and a present participle (the act of rowing).
