1997 Canoe Slalom World Cup

The winner of each world cup race in the men's K1 was awarded 30 points while in the other three categories the winner was awarded 25 points. The points scale reached down to 1 point for 20th place in the men's K1 (15th place in the other three categories). Only the best two results of each athlete from the first 4 world cups plus the result from the world cup final counted for the final world cup standings. Furthermore, an athlete or boat had to compete in the world cup final in order to be classified in the world cup rankings. If two or more athletes or boats were equal on points, the ranking was determined by their positions in the world cup final. C2 men K1 women == Results ==
