How is rowing played?
Rowing is 'played' by racing boats agaisnt each other. In some races called "head races" the boats are set off one after the other and the boat that wins is the boat with the fastest time in a category. In regattas, the boats are raced in lanes and so it is whoever finishes the race first. There are also indoor rowing competitions where lots of people gather and compete on rowing machines (ergos) and depending on what their race is the winner is whoever got the greatest distance or the fastest time. There are many differnet categories for age, gender, weight and type of boat so each race is fair.

Which type of rowing is harder Surf boats or flat water?
Both are really hard, it just depends in what sense you mean. Flat water is extremely technical in terms of the dynamics of the stroke, and the 2k race distance is a world of pain. In surf rowing, the stroke is not as technical, but you are bouncing over waves, meaning you regularly become airborne and are trying to keep rowing while the boat just drops out from under you. The boat is also far heavier. As to which one is more difficult, it largely depends on skills and experience. Having done both competitively, I would say that personally I find surf rowing more difficult.
