COMBINING EVENTS
He used to specialise in quadruple sculls, but in 2017 began to alternate between quadruple and double sculls after partnering with teammate Miroslaw Zietarski in the latter. "It was an idea of our coach. He experiments with squads and it's always his call. He is looking for the most optimal teams for each event. I really like to be in the double with Miroslaw, because we have a great connection both in and outside the scull." (TvTetka YouTube channel, 29 May 2017)
