Where's the wooden kayaks?

So I’m watching the Olympics today and Bob Costas announces flat water canoe and kayak racing. YES! First the kayaks raced. Or were they kayaks? And the canoes, well, I don’t know. I’ve never seen canoes paddled in a marriage proposal kneeling position before. The whole thing was completely foreign to me.
And where’s the wood strip kayaks. That’s what the Olympics needs, wood strip kayaks and canoes. Guess I’m just a romantic at heart, but 1/8” thick strips sandwiched between 2-4 oz glass would have added a whole lot to the overly technological Sydney Olympics.
