Olympic canoe sprint is a competitive paddling sport where athletes race in canoes or kayaks over specific distances on flatwater. Events typically range from 200 to 1000 meters, and competitors must navigate straight courses, testing their speed and endurance. The sport features both individual and team events, with various categories based on boat type and gender. It has been part of the Olympic Games since 1936, showcasing the skill and athleticism of paddlers worldwide.

An Olympic single-person canoe, also known as a C1, typically measures about 5.2 meters (17 feet) in length. These canoes are designed for speed and maneuverability in competitive sprint events. The specific dimensions can vary slightly based on the design and manufacturer, but the general length remains consistent for competition standards.
Canoe slalom involves navigating a canoe or kayak through a series of timed obstacles, typically on a whitewater course with rapids, requiring agility and precision. In contrast, canoe sprint is a flatwater race where athletes paddle over a specified distance in a straight line, focusing on speed and endurance rather than navigating obstacles. Both disciplines are competitive and feature distinct skill sets and techniques.
