Flat water kayaking in Sweden

Anders Gustafsson is one of the world’s fastest flat water racing kayak paddlers. He has won a lot of medals over the years in the very best of competitions worldwide Though never a gold medal at the world championship, until the year 2010 when it actually was in Poznań, in Poland, where he won the 500 meter K1 final.
The majority of people would most probably refer kayaking to a calm river where someone is just going with the stream, observing the environment, but kayak racing is just like skiing or running – a physical sport. This video of Anders Gustafsson will prove it: (the actual paddeling starts at around 01:35)

  1. It so amazing that he is so fast ! In Poland we have got great swimmers like for example Otylia Jędrzejczak, she has got a lot of medals. We look forward to Anders Gustafsson's further success : )
