Paralympics rowing at Eton Dorney, Argentinian single sculler

Carlos Vysocki of Argentina competing in the man's single sculls finals. In this classification rowers use arms and shoulders only. They do not have the trunk movement needed to balance the boat, so there are two small pontoon outriggers, and the athletes are strapped in to the boat with a backrest.
