Great lesson! I put everything in practice the last week, and it works great, in particular the idea of reaching the 12 o'clock position when the board is at the bottom of the swing. I used to raise my arms with the upswing of the board, which is not so good. I am looking forward to a lesson on the inward dives, perhaps something on the twist. Thanks!
I’m sorry but I have a life problem where I cannot have my ankles touch, and it I annoying. It will feel like I am in heck. I am a diver, and I enjoy it, but it is a tough problem that I have to go through. Thanks IU, also nice basketball game tonight. 11/25/2020 this is the day I was posting this. One day after my birthday, and one day before Thanksgiving. Gooooooo IU!
Dido to what eight7000 said! I have major problems with my forwards and reverses... I just go too far from the board (due to a head injury because of not going so high from a 5331D). I'll hopefully be over at Bloomington... so I'm X-ing my fingers for that and diving as well.
@sgtgum1 Without having seen you dive, I'm going to take a guess that as you land in your hurdle and start leaving the board, that you don't get into the ''magic position''. basically, your shoulders are forward and you're leaning almost over the board. if your coach yells ''stop'' at any part of your hurdle, you should be able to without falling in the water. see the diver at 3:20? that's the position you want to be in. also, don't throw the dive until you get well off the board. good luck
you need to reach your arms up above your head on gainers/reverses on head first entries especially, first of all where your arms reach is where your feet will be when you kick out (generally) and also, if, and when you reach, this will allow you to lead the dive with a throw, jumping it higher, allowing the dive the proper distance from the board, and allowing proper spin, if you don't reach with your arms then you will not jump as high, most likely hip the dive out a bit,
That helps a lot because my approach isn't that great -- I don't get enough height. Now I think it's because my arms don't reach 12 O'clock I usually stop around 10. It makes a huge difference.
was that double bounce, i dont have sound on my comp so i cant really hear anything, but i use the arm swing technique on my hurdle, but iam ganna try that, it looks pretty cool
when you have you head up when you are about to go off the board, will that helpyou to keep you dive in and not so far out? that is my problem with my dives. i tend to go out to far.
This has helped me loads with my diving. Thanks to uploader and Coach Huber.
Very helpful, thanks coach!!
Thank you coach I know this helped me 10000% thank you so much
Awesome! Wish I got this 25 years ago. But it inspires me.

👏
and you will lead with your head and shoulders, giving the dive a whipe , nearly unsafe feel to it
