Aim of the game
In either canoes or kayaks, athletes must complete a 250m white-water course, passing through gates and avoiding obstacles, in the shortest time possible
Why should you watch this?
High speed thrills, white-water rapids and obstacles, the tradition of canoeing is recreated on a man-made course that tests the competitors’ strength and skill to their limits

Whitewater
The fast-flowing, rough water in which the canoe competition takes place, named after the white foam created by the waves

The course comprises an artificial, 250m stretch of white-water.
