London Canoe Slalom Test Event update

Friday, July 29, 2011

The first races are done. Yesterday (thursday) took place the K1 and C1 man, the best of two runs would dictate the 21th in K1 and 15th in C1 to move forward in the competition.

The times were really tight in both categories with only a 4,33sec gap between the leader Daniele Molmenti (ITA) and the last man to get in, in K1, and 4,09sec between Stanislav Jezek (CZE) and the 15th in C1 man. So no place for big mistakes!!

Campbell Walsh (GBR) was the best NELO, placing 4th, 1,19sec away from the leader.

Carles Juan Marti (ESP) placed 29th less than 1sec from the 21th, Huw Swetnam (GBR) didn't had a good day placing 45th and the young Pedro Henrique "Pepe" (BRA) placed 49th.

Today it's time for the K1 W and the C2. The races just started.

Good luck everyone
