“Angle of Attack”
Angle produced at maximal board deflection (bend)
These 2 elements determine how high and/or how far out a diver
travels.
Diving Skills Front Flip “Angle of Attack” Good Good
Good BadTake Special Note of the body position the angles are similar but the different body positions is one of the core problem between
good and bad dives.
Diving Skills Front Flip “Angle of Attack”Good Good
Good Bad
The good diver is standing tall while the bad model is more hunched over. Even though she creates a similar angle her dive will suffer with regard to the flip.
