Dave Lindstrom

Dave was first named in the elite New Zealand Rowing team in 1972 when he was selected in the men’s coxed four to compete at the Munich Olympic games. The Olympic Games were Dave’s first taste of international competition, however they would not be his last.

Two years later, Dave was named to compete at the 1974 World Rowing Championships in Lucerne in the coxless four, a crew he would remain in for the next four years.

The coxless fours next international outing was the 1976 Montreal Olympic games where they narrowly missed out on a medal, coming fourth.

In 1977 Dave and his coxless four crew claimed sliver at the 1977 World Rowing Championships in Amsterdam. Dave’s final international outing was on home soil, when the men’s coxless four took bronze at the 1978 World Rowing Championships at Karapiro.
