Paracanoe debuted at the 2016 Summer Paralympics in Rio de Janeiro. A meeting of the International Paralympic Committee in Guangzhou, China in 2010 decided to add paracanoe to the roster of the Summer Paralympic Games.

Paracanoe is a variant of canoeing for athletes with a variety of physical disabilities. The sport is governed by the International Canoe Federation (ICF).

Events

Competition at the Summer Paralympic Games consists of sprint races over a 200m straight line course. Eight different events are held.

Equipment

The first paracanoe programme at the Paralympics in 2016 featured competitors using single kayaks (K1). For the 2020 paracanoe competitions, a second type of boat, the va'a, was added. This is an outrigger canoe propelled by a single bladed paddle.

Competitor classification

There are three different classes for competitors with different physical mobility impairments:

  • KL1 - only arms are used for paddling
  • KL2 / VL2 - trunk and arms are used for paddling
  • KL3 / VL3 - legs, trunk and arms are used for paddling
