The third position is held by a Czech canoeists Tomáš Koplík a Jakub Vrzáň thanks to the time 104.51. One huge surprise was brought by the world champions brothers Hochschorners (SVK), who missed the gate and therefore, they will not take part in the final. Their national team colleagues cousins Škantárs, the winners of the heats, finished on the sixth place. It's a pitty that another Czech crew Václav Hradílek a Štěpán Sehnal holds the eleventh position and thus they will not participate in the final.
