It was his comeback competition and the Colombian began exactly where he ended last year: on top of
the podium receiving the winner's trophy. In a thrilling head-to-head battle from 27 metres, reigning
World Series champion Gary Hunt was the lucky loser and the last diver to go through to the final at the
season opener on the island of Corsica on Saturday evening. More than 1,200 people on boats saw
Steven LoBue, from the United States, take his first ever second place, with Czech diver Michal Navratil
completing the first top three.© Red Bull Media House

Welcome to Bonifacio. Perched on a limestone pedestal, Bonifacio is one of the most spectacular towns in the Mediterranean. The citadel walls and ancient houses appear to rise seamlessly out of sheer cliffs that have been hollowed and striated by the wind and waves. Beneath, an inlet about 100 metres wide forms a natural harbour, home to a busy port. Only 12 kilometres from Sardinia, the town is distinctly more Italian than French in atmosphere, and even has its own dialect based on Ligurian...

Despite the literal meaning of Grimstad -- 'sour town' -- its roughly 20,000 permanent residents are widely known for their genuine happiness. Probably because of the region's good weather and the picturesque landscape surrounding the archipelago that stretches 500km from Oslo to the southern tip of Norway. © Red Bull Media House

We explain the basics of cliff diving: why is 27Metres (and not 25 or 29) the standard height? What is the scuba divers' job? Why does it only take 5 metres of water depth? What make the athletes dive from almost three times the Olympic height -- the thrill and the challenge of this spectacular sport? And is it possible to dive head from this height? For your reference: the height is comparable to an eight-storey building, the divers fall free for three seconds before they hit the water at 8...

From an almost round volcanic islet on the Azores to a near-perfect rectangular blowhole in Ireland – the location for the fourth stop of the World Series is laden with myth as much as it is out of the ordinary. A sea serpent is said to make its presence felt with the help of screeching, stormy winds. The legendary Serpent’s Lair on Ireland’s Aran Islands provides the perfect pool for the world’s cliff diving elite at the halfway stage. Three different winners in as many competitions make the...

In 2013 the title is decided during eight competitions between May and October. Until today we have seen three different winners in four competitions and it’s not always the most difficult dives that earn the highest scores from the judges. Consistency is what counts in a long season and now everybody can handle that and finish in the top every single time. Why is that? And what is more important – to show a new and more difficult dive or stick to your “tried and trusted” programme? Why do so...
