Check out some of the action shots taken from the Volvo Ocean Race helicopter. Shots were taken during the Irish Slalom Series Showcase event during the Galway stopover. Gallery here. The showcase event also made it onto a short clip about galway - check out the video on the Volvo Ocean Race TV site here 

A big thank you to DiscoverIreland.ie for all their assistance in making the showcase a success. Also to Shane Smart for all the photos.
