“I was right after a BSD trip with Luc Legrand that I met up with Vince Perraud and Sergio Layos on the big transitions of the Ocean Museum of Biarritz (aka The Surf Museum). This spot, between the Pyrenees mountains and the Atlantic Ocean is both beautiful and scary; the ground is like a rough pavement and you need to pedal like a madman to catch any air at all. I had already seen Max Bonfil and Alex Valentino doing some high airs on this but i have to say that Sergio was pretty unbelievable…” – Antoine Sabourin

A model of cliff diving consistency this year, the 31-year-old World Series record winner added another victory to his collection this weekend, his first one in Denmark. And just like in the season’s second stop in La Rochelle, France, the athletes from England made it a double, as former Olympian Blake Aldridge performed the sport’s hardest dive with a Degree of Difficulty of 6.3 for 8s and 8.5s from the judges to take second place. And it is the sport’s most experienced athlete and the winner of 13 cliff diving world titles, Orlando Duque, from Colombia, who completed the podium in Denmark making it his fourth top three result in as many competitions, despite being one full point of difficulty behind his dominant rival from England.
