Rowing

Donostia Arraun Lagunak has made history again in the bay of La Concha. The crew led by Nagore Osoro and led by Juan Mari Etxabe has won the 2026 Flag of La Concha, confirming the indisputable superiority of the female rowing.

Arraun Lagunak has won the Flag of La Concha with authority, without giving any choice to his rivals, and has rounded a historic season in which San Juan has been second with a very good regatta, while Tolosaldea has finished in third place.

Orio and Donostiarra, in the male category, and Arraun Lagunak, in the female category, have held a working session in the Bay of San Sebastián, in the run-up to the second and final day of the Flag of La Concha. Orio has two seconds ahead of Donostairra and "Lugañen", nine with Tolosaldea.

Once the trainees reach the finish line and after the hard work they have done, internal feelings break out and explode, especially in cases where the targets set have been met.

There are situations that require a lot of teamwork in a trainer, two of which are to give the ciabogas well and to know how to take advantage of the waves on your side.

At the time of the dispute of the Flag of La Concha, there are three types of wind on our shores: the South, the Northeast and the Northwest.

The waves provoke a tremendous dance in the trainees: the rowers, among other things, are beaten, and it costs them a lot of work to fight the waves. However, the worst thing is to get water into the trainer, and there are some means to prevent this. Ibon Gaztañazpi tells us about them in this video.

When they do the regatta when the tide is rising, what do the trainees try to do, and if the tide is coming down, what are the most suitable streets of the regatta camp?

40,000 years ago, the border of the sea reached the area where the outer beacons are today. By the hand of Ibon Gaztañazpi, we entered the bottom of the regatta field, where the Flag of La Concha will be at stake on Sunday.

What were the trainees who used them at the first events of the Flag of La Concha? And what are the differences between them? Ibon Gaztañazpi tells us. 

Salsamendi thus leaves the Bermeo club at the end of the season, that is, the second day of the Flag of La Concha and, in the Eusko Label League, the races of Bermeo and Portugalete.

Ibon Gaztañazpi, in the second report of the series La Concha Hondotik, tells us what the colour origin of some trainees is, and as we will see, there are curiosities related to it.

By the hand of EITB journalist Ibon Gaztañazpi, see what the port of San Sebastián was like 147 years ago, when they first played the Flag of La Concha. In the days that followed, EITB will issue a series of special reports, just before the Flag of La Concha event of 2026 was fully decided on Sunday.

Kontxako Bandera bezalako estropada batean, arraunlariak ahalegin oso handia egin behar izaten dute; hala ikusten da traineruak helmugaratu eta berehala. Bideo honetan, hauek agertzen dira: Hibaika, Donostiarra (gizonezkoen proban), Arraun Lagunak eta Orio (gizonezkoen proban).

The patron of Hondarribia is very pleased with the work done by his team. On the second day, Ama Guadalupekoa will be in the honor batch.

Donostiarrak bigarren postua bereganatu du 2026ko Kontxako Banderaren lehenengo jardunaldian. Oriok egin du denborarik onena lehen jardunaldi horretan, baina Donostiarrak soilik hiru segundo galdu ditu mirotzekiko; hortaz, Donostiarra eta Orio arituko dira nor baino nor gehiago, garaipenaren bila, datorren igandean. 

Orio has been the fastest on the first day of the Flag of La Concha 2026 and has taken three seconds ahead of the Donostiarra. Zierbena and Hondarribia will accompany them in the batch of honor, while Bermeo, Lekittarra, Getaria and Ondarroa will leave in the first batch.
