I would say C1 women is not enough developed, at least in Tokio would be better for programme to stay same.

True, it was an amazing competition today!

Though I like the idea of having this gender equality in sports, I really believe it's motivational for a lot of women to see that they can try to be the best at their sport and dream with an olympic medal. I would like for C2 to stay, but if for one to go in, another needs to go out..... then I don't mind to see it go away

yes I understand your point. But the trouble is that Tokyo is too early for womens C1. The event is absolutely not competitive at all. ther max. let say 4-5 athletes which will end in some 10 seconds, the others will barely finish the race, because at olympics must be a hard course. It will be a disaster and canoe slalom overal will hurt it a lot. remember this sport is all 4 years under pression to be cut, always before each games, and with this womens C1 step the opponents will receive very good cards to cut slalom

Congrats, Maialen! 

What joy, Spain wins his second gold in just a few hours (after Mireia Belmonte in Swimming). Maialen Chourraut deserved much, was bronze medal in London 2012.

 

Thank you
