The gold medal was won by Ladislav Škantár & Peter Škantár of Slovakia.[1]

It was the last appearance of the men's C-2, replaced by the women's C-1 for Tokyo 2020 in order to bring the slalom canoeing programme to gender equality (in 2016 and before, there were 3 men's events to only 1 women's event).
