Pau-Pyrénées Whitewater Stadium
Pau-Pyrénées Whitewater Stadium ((フランス語:Stade d'eaux-vives Pau-Pyrénées)) is the home training facility for the French national canoe slalom team. It was first used to train the French team for the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing. It 2009, it was the first of three venues used in the canoe slalom World Cup.〔http://www.icctv.info/OSzBiLSBLUo/Canoe-Slalom-World-Cup-Race-1-PauFRA-2009.html retrieved 2011-01-24〕 It is also a whitewater park for recreational use by the general public.
==History and Design==
The town of Pau has long been a center of activity for French canoe slalom. The natural rapids in the center of town are still equipped with hanging slalom gates. But the sport is increasingly conducted on artificial whitewater, and the presence in Pau of two Olympic medalists, Tony Estanguet and his older brother Patrice,〔http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OSzBiLSBLUo retrieved 2011-04-07〕 helped to make Pau the site of this new 11.7 million € facility.〔http://www.agglo-pau.fr/content/view/202/161/ retrieved 2011-01-25〕
It is located beside a small dam upstream from town, where it uses diverted river water supplemented by pumped recirculation when the river's streamflow is low. The artificial channels are lined with boulders embedded in concrete, and the visible instream flow diverters are natural rocks, giving the course a natural appearance, similar to that of the nearby Parc Olímpic del Segre on the Spanish side of the mountains. The moveable plastic bollards common to many such courses are not used here.
