Canoe slalom is contested by two types of boats, a canoe (C) and a kayak (K). An athlete knees in a canoe and propels the boat with the single-blade paddle. An athlete uses the double-bladed paddle in a seated position in a kayak.
Canoe slalom was first included as a medal event at the 1972 Munich Games and was not seen at the Olympic Games again until Barcelona 1992. Up until Rio 2016 there were four events: men's C-1 canoe, K-1 kayak and C-2 canoe (men's pair), and women's K-1 kayak.
Canoe Slalom is a race against the clock through a combination of up and downstream gates on a whitewater course. The course length and number of gates varies with a maximum of 25 gates for canoe and kayak events and eight gates for Kayak Cross.
The base level of individual membership is $40; however, the opportunity to provide a higher level of support are available. Memberships expire annually on the 1-year anniversary of the original join date or the most recent renewal date. An auto renewal option is available.

Precision and speed on the wild water. In Slalom Racing, paddlers have to navigate the kayak or canoe through pairs of poles, called "gates", set up over the challenging rapids, waves, eddies and currents on a 300m stretch of rough water.
