Have you, like everyone else, been playing Google’s doodles celebrating the London 2012 Olympic Games? The latest of which (at the time of writing) is a slalom canoe course.

This video shows someone completing the slalom canoe Google Doodle in 16.5 seconds, and while there are quicker times posted on YouTube, this is one of the better quality runs.

It’s pretty damn hard to get three gold medals out of three on these Google Doodles. There are ways of helping yourself, such as pressing both the left and right buttons at the same time rather than alternately, but it’s still mostly skill.

Google has done wonders with these playable Doodles, making them easy enough for anyone to play but tough enough to provide a challenge. I hope there are a few more before the closing ceremony.
