Canoe Slalom: カヌースラローム

Slalom Rapids is a canoe slalom game built on real river physics. The left half of the screen is your left paddle and the right half is your right paddle. Tap, swipe, and hold to paddle through whitewater and clear every gate as fast as you can. THE RIVER IS ALIVE Hidden rocks push the water into pillows, holes, standing waves, and swirling boils. Eddies behind rocks flow back upstream. Read the white streaks and foam on the surface, then use the current instead of fighting it. REAL PADDLE STROKES • Tap: forward stroke • Swipe down: power stroke • Swipe up: back stroke • Swipe outward: sweep to turn • Swipe inward: draw to slide sideways • Press and hold: rudder or brace • Tilt your device like a steering wheel to edge the boat Lean the wrong way on an eddy line and you capsize, just like in a real kayak. RACE Take on a 22-gate course with green downstream gates and red upstream gates, including a run under a bridge. Touch a pole for +2 s; miss a gate for +50 s. Chase your personal best and compete on the Game Center leaderboards. TRAINING: 15 DRILLS Start on flat water with forward strokes, spin turns, and back strokes, then move up to moving water and whitewater techniques: • Edging • Wave surfing • Eddy catch • Ferry glide • Peel out • Boulder garden Each technique lesson explains the principle, the controls, and tips with animated diagrams. Live meters show your edge, your angle to the current, and the balance of forces while you surf. Earn up to 3 stars per drill. WATCH A DEMO Not sure how to do it? Watch a demo run. On-screen fingers show exactly which side to tap or swipe and what each stroke does, then try it yourself. PRACTICE MODE Set the flow speed from 50% to 125%, slow the game down to 0.5x, show flow arrows on the water, and start from any gate. Turn on Auto Edge Assist while you learn.
