After a year-long break, Vít Přindiš is returning to the Czech elite. The kayaker has been through a period of change, reflection and new experiences - and now he is heading back to the start line. One major certainty is already in place: he has earned a spot on the national team in kayak cross. Now, he wants to add classic slalom as well.

The ICF Canoe Slalom World Cup in Prague - Troja has long been synonymous with world-class sport and an unforgettable visitor experience.

Prague-Troja will once again host one of the highlights of the international canoe slalom season this year. From 5 to 7 June 2026, the Troja slalom course will welcome a new edition of the Canoe Slalom World Cup, bringing the absolute world elite to the Czech capital along with a unique sporting atmosphere.

The day awaited by the whole world arrived. Three Olympic spots were up for grabs in both men's and women's categories. France’s Angele Hug and Spain’s Manuel Ochoa both won kayak cross gold on the final day of the International Canoe Federation World Cup in Prague, but both now face a nervous wait to learn if they will get to compete at the Paris Olympics.

Behind every success lies a lot of hard work. Gabriela Satková's triumph at the World Cup in Prague's Troja, however, required something more. "I knew I had to show something special to beat the girls. It's not enough just to go down the course without mistakes. So I went for it, and I am very happy with myself," laughed the twenty-two-year-old canoeist at the finish line. "I really tried to take risks."

From the morning, he knew this race would be different. "I was nervous, I focused more. This is what I lacked in kayaking, probably because I'm aiming for a different peak there," described Jiří Prskavec at the finish line, already as the winner of the World Cup in the singles category. In a dramatic race in Prague's Troja, he triumphed ahead of Slovenian Benjamin Savšek and Frenchman Nicolas Gestin. The women's race was dominated by Gabriela Satková, ahead of Jessica Fox from Australia and Germany's Andrea Herzog. They were supported in the stands by Petr Pavel, the President of the Czech Republic.
