Slalom Kayaking and Canoeing is an olympic sport that involves getting down a whitewater course faster than your competition. The courses are full of red and green gates. Red gates are "up" gates and green gates are "down" gates. There are from 18-25 of these on a course. Your head must go through every gate. If you touch a gate there is a 2 second penalty. If you miss a gate there is a 50 second penalty. The full rules are obviously a tad more complicated but we wanted to give the basics here - especially for all your slalom kayakers who want to share the rules of the sport with your friends.
I hope you enjoy watching this visual explanation of the slalom rules. It was a collaboration between myself (Rob Nelson) and our graphics guru, Emma Nicod.
