Heslop claims another podium finish in Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series

PLYMOUTH’S Aidan Heslop has recorded another podium finish at the latest round of the 2022 Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series in Mostar, Bosnia & Herzegovina.

Heslop finished third behind the Romanian pair of Constantin Popovici Catalin Preda at the event, where divers leap off a medieval arched bridge and into the Neretva River.

The event, which was watched by more than 10,000 people, was the fifth round of the eight-event series and Heslop lies third, having won the opening competition in Boston in June and also medalled earlier this month in Oslo.

Heslop (pictured top in action at Mostar) managed to beat big rival Gary Hunt, who came fourth, at the weekend to close the gap on him in the series standings.
