Short summary: Although some relationships were identified between physiological factors and performance, variables other than those tested (30-sec upper body Wingate; 3 min post lactate; body composition; anthropometric profile; 10 m flat water sprint; grip strength; pulmonary function; post-race lactates) are major determinants of slalom paddling. Implication. When training elite slalom paddlers, physiological conditioning will not be the capacity that discriminates good from lesser performers.
