Australian Open Canoe Slalom

The 2019 Australia Open Canoe slalom will see the world’s best Olympic slalom paddlers compete at Penrith Whitewater Stadium as part of the 2019 Sydney International Whitewater Festival -- the largest international whitewater event in the Asia Pacific since the 2000 Olympic Games at Penrith Whitewater Stadium.

Over 300 of the world’s greatest Olympic slalom paddlers from over 30 countries, including several Olympic and World Champions, will compete against Australia’s best, with Australian slalom star, greatest female slalom paddler of all time and Penrith local Jessica Fox kicking off the international season on home waters.
