The K1 cross was renamed as Extreme Kayak, but still no world cup points were awarded for the event.

Segre Olympic Park
Parc Olímpic del Segre is a canoeing and kayaking facility in La Seu d'Urgell, Catalonia, Spain, built in 1990 for use during the 1992 Summer Olympics in Barcelona. The competition whitewater course is 300 m long, with a 6.5 m drop, making a 2.2% slope of 114 ft/mile or 22 m/km. The natural flow of the Segre River is diverted through the course by a diversion dam upstream. In low flow conditions, four 300-kilowatt recirculation pumps can add up to 12 m3/s to the course flow, in order to increase it to the course maximum of 17.5 m3/s. When the course is not being used, or when the natural flow exceeds 17.5 m3/s, the pumps are reversed and run in turbine mode to generate electricity for the town. A 130-metre beginners course is a diversion from the main course. Its drop is 1.5 m for a 1.2% slope of 61 ft/mile or 12 m/km. Streamflow for the beginners course is 3 to 10 m3/s. The park also has a 650-m long feedwater canal which carries water from the river into the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Ivrea Whitewater Stadium
The Ivrea Whitewater Stadium ( it, Stadio della Canoa di Ivrea) is an artificial whitewater sporting facility located in Ivrea, Italy. History The practice of canoeing in Ivrea began in the 1950s. The subsequent founding and growing importance of the local Ivrea Canoe Club led to a long series of efforts aimed at modifying the configuration of a part of the Dora Baltea riverbed near the city center to make it more suitable for the sport, ultimately resulting in the creation of the current whitewater facility. The latest and most relevant work campaigns include the works carried out in 2005 by Ondrej Cibák, which redesigned the slope of the last part of the canal to better distribute the significant drop of the facility. Cibák had previously designed the Ondrej Cibak Whitewater Slalom Course in Liptovský Mikuláš, Slovakia. In 2006, the French company Hydrostadium, which had already designed the Hellinikon Olympic Canoe/Kayak Slalom Centre for the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athen ...

Augsburg Eiskanal
The ''Augsburg Eiskanal'' is an artificial whitewater river in Augsburg, Germany, constructed as the canoe slalom venue for the 1972 Summer Olympics in nearby Munich. The first artificial whitewater course of its kind, it introduced the sport of canoe slalom (using decked canoes and kayaks) to the Olympic Games. However, because of the expense of building artificial rivers and supplying them with water, canoe slalom was missing from the next four Summer Olympics. It returned with the 1992 Olympic Games in Barcelona, and has been featured in every Summer Olympics since then. The Eiskanal has thus served as the prototype for six Olympic whitewater venues, from 1992 through 2012, and for more than fifty training and competition facilities in eighteen countries (see list). Despite being the oldest, it is still one of the most widely used, hosting two World Championships and numerous World Cup races. It was a World Cup venue for all but four of the years 1990 through 2010, and it ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
