Paddle Results

Features
Read full description

Paddle Results is the paddling archive, made useful. Look up any race, follow an athlete's whole career, and see how nations and events have changed over ninety years of canoe and kayak racing — from the Olympic final to the junior heat. WHAT'S INSIDE • 28,000+ races across nearly 500 competitions, from 1933 to today • 31,000+ athletes with their full result histories • Canoe sprint, slalom, marathon, paracanoe, kayak cross, dragon boat and SUP RACES AND COMPETITIONS Full finish order with times, gaps and lane draw. Start lists before the racing begins. Event progression, so you can follow a crew from heat to semifinal to final without hunting for the next round. ATHLETE PROFILES Starts, finals reached, medals and medal rate, Olympic appearances, personal best times for each boat and distance, the events they race most often, and the rivals they keep meeting. RANKINGS A skill rating (MMR) computed from every final in the archive, with a separate ranking for each boat, gender, distance and age band. See who is rising, who is falling, and where a paddler peaked. NATIONS Read a nation's record inside one discipline, one age category and one competition level — never added together across them, because those numbers are not comparable. Medals and finishing positions charted year by year. HISTORY LAB Trace a single event through time: winning times, participation and podiums, season by season. COMPARE Put two to four races side by side and read them on the same terms. SAVED Keep favourite athletes, races and competitions for quick access. Everything stays on your device. SHARE Send anyone a link to exactly what you are looking at — the filters you chose travel with it. BUILT ON FACTS Times are reported as recorded. Nothing is adjusted across venues, conditions or eras, and no rating is invented to make different eras look comparable when they are not. Where the archive is thin or a source disagrees, the app says so rather than guessing. FREE AND PRIVATE No account, no sign-up, no ads and no tracking. Favourites stay on your device. A QUKO product; performance intelligence for water sports.
