Dostal and Paloudova finished second in the heat, behind the Belarusians in neutral colors, Volha Chudzenkova and Dzmitry Natynchyk. The three best boats went straight ahead, and in the second half of the course, the Czech couples were already controlling the situation. “We are happy that we were able to move forward immediately, that we can save some strength. Looking at the times from the second heat, it looks very promising that we could fight for the top position in the final,” said Dostál in a press release.
In the final on Saturday, they would like to improve the interplay, which was not ideal today. “I wanted to be much faster than Josef. Yosef pulled out the honor there, he went further to the descendants of the best ship. I felt the need to roll from start to finish. I can’t see much through his back, so even though Josef knew how we were moving there, I didn’t know and I wanted to fight there. Maybe it was too much,” admitted Paloudová.
Through the semi-finals, Vilém Kukačka and Jakub Zavřel advanced to the finals in the 1000 meter double kayak race, Adam Rudolf and Antonín Hrabal in the kilometer double canoe race. and the kayaker Adéla Házová in the 1000 meter race.
