Yesterday's Red Bull Cliff Diving action looked spectacular to say the least, and today's offering has been no different.

Colombia's Orlando Duque led the field going into the final two rounds but it was Britain's Gary Hunt who impressed most in the Inis Mór sunshine to take the third stage of the Red Bull World Series.

Finishing on 488.40 points, it was Hunt's second consecutive stage win ahead of America's Steve LoBue and Mexico's Jonathan Paredes. Duque, one of the sport's most revered figures, dropped back to fourth after today's action.

Hunt, a three-time World Series champion, was understandably happy to have extended his lead at the top of the standing as the divers head on to Norway for the next round.

It’s quite special this one. Having come here two years ago and having a really tough competition when I was not at my best and got the worst result of my career, it’s been great to get the win. I have to say that I was bit nervous when I saw this competition on the calendar.

It’s such a challenge, but to have got through it and taken the win it’s pretty special. Two wins in a row definitely makes a statement and is definitely going to help me in my challenge for the top spot. 

Coming up we'll have plenty more images and footage from the final two rounds to look out for.
