Vavra Hradilek – Planet Canoe are you serious? Am I at the same World Cup event as this guy who has written this article [see below]? I have not seen any athletes or coaches giving thumbs up to the change which only brought us back about 25 years. I really hope it only is a mistake for one race. Speaking that it was decision of a coaches and race organizers? why no one knew about it before?

Well it is Praha, it will be best World cup and enjoy awesome facility to race everyone!
