"As each country can only earn a maximum of two quota places per category through continental qualifications, it means South Africa will have to make the difficult decision of whether to hold on to the K2 500 or the K1 500."

 

 

ICF. Completely clueless about their own qualificatoin system.

I think it's the same case as of Spain's men kayak at the Worlds.

Except that Africa doesn't even have continental quotas in K2.

While true, it would mean either Tunisia or Egypt also declined the quota

Nevermind, it looks like Africa was eligible to use the women's K2 500m quota (Asia didn't get it apparently)

Apparently Argentina did get their K1 1000 m spot, and somehow Russia got doubled up in K2 1000 m...

Not really sure how that happened. But potentially Spain's unused K1 200 m quota somehow ended up in Russian K2 boat? And then Argentina got a spare spot from Russia in K1?

Argentina got its quota from the Czech Republic (Spain declined while France's athlete is already qualified in the K2 1000m).

 

Spain's unused quota really should have gone to Sweden in the K1 200m and if Sweden declined it, it should have gone to Russia in the K1 200m and while that would mean Russia has two kayak men quotas, neither of them competed in the K2 1000m so the whole "athlete qualified in another boat" thing won't count. While it doesn't mean much in terms of number of athletes, it's significant because athletes must compete in the boat their athlete quota was qualified in.
