After winning the final four stops last year, 7-time champion Gary Hunt<\/strong> began this season where he left off \u2013 the brilliant Brit is unbeaten in five competitions across seasons. In El Nido\u2019s beautiful lagoons Romania\u2019s Constantin<\/strong> Popovici<\/strong> edged the leader after three rounds, Jonathan Paredes<\/strong> from Mexico, out of second place in his first competition as a permanent diver from 27 metres.\u00a0No surprises for the women in the season opener. Three-time champion Rhiannan Iffland<\/strong> got off to a flyer in this unspoilt location off the Philippines\u2019 Palawan Island. Yana<\/strong> Nestsiarava<\/strong> from Belarus equalled her best-ever finish in second place, with Canada\u2019s Lysanne Richard<\/strong> completing the podium.<\/p>\n

With a pair of 10s for Paredes\u2019 first dive of the season, the Mexican launched immaculately from the rocky off-the-cliffs spots above emerald green lagoon waters, taking the lead into round four. However, it was in this final round when Popovici\u2019s impressive armstand dive earned the Romanian the high score of the day and his first ever World Series podium, just 1.35 points ahead of Mexico\u2019s style master. It was record winner Hunt, though, who nailed his final dive to stay unbeaten with his dive list for a fifth time.<\/p>\n

Over to the women\u2019s and Iffland, the sport\u2019s most decorated female athlete, surprised herself by winning for the 12th time in 18 events. Sitting in third after two rounds from the rocky launchpads in the Small Lagoon, the 27-year-old showed no nerves with the best dive in the final round to keep her contenders in check and continue her winning form from 21 metres. Under the scorching Philippines sun, it was Belarusian Nestsiarava, the surprise leader before making the way over to the platforms for the more complex dives, who came closest to the Australian. Canada\u2019s Richard, at 37 the most experienced permanent diver in the women\u2019s, secured 3rd place to make it 10 career podiums.<\/p>\n

In this, the remotest of locations, the divers were tasked with kayaking, rock-climbing and traversing ladders before they even reached their take-off positions. Once on their platform the phenomenal views across the lagoons were certainly worth the effort.<\/p>\n

Untouched limestone formations, natural colours, coral and fish were the stunning scenery as the world’s best cliff divers kicked off the new season in paradise with a display of diving grace. From here they move on to chillier waters in Dublin, Ireland for the second new stop on the calendar in a month\u2019s time.<\/p>\n

Quotes from the winners<\/strong><\/p>\n

I knew it was going to be a tough competition. Constantin pushed me right until the edge and that\u2019s been like that for a couple of competitions now. I know it\u2019s not going to be easy, but that\u2019s one.<\/p>\n

I want to be diving against the best people in the world and here is where I can do that. I don\u2019t want to be just on my own. It\u2019s much more fun when it\u2019s a fight.<\/p>\n

A wonderful location. When you think of cliff diving you think of a place like this. We found some really great places and what better way than come away with a win.<\/p>\n

Rhiannan Iffland, AUS<\/strong><\/p>\n

Super happy and a bit surprised as well. I was standing up there and thought the win is a bit out of my reach, but I do like that extra bit of pressure. It definitely helps me when I\u2019m out on the platform. It helps me to stay calm and collected and enjoy what I do. Super stoked and kind of out of words.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a good start, but the rest of the season I\u2019d like to be just as consistent. I did four consistent dives here in the Philippines. I\u2019d like to carry that on for the rest of the season and I\u2019ll be happy if I can do so.<\/p>\n

Some say it\u2019s not easy, but I actually really enjoy diving off the cliffs; I love being out in nature and I love the extra adrenaline you get standing up on the cliffs. It shows a little bit more versatility with the dives also, so I\u2019m excited that we have two more stops with off the cliffs dives coming up this season.<\/p>\n
