[@nehaana4092]

I dived for the first time today and basically belly flopped, it felt like shards of broken glass going through me. I needed this video before being adventerous.

[@krubelkidane6332]

when I dive I always end up belly flopping HELP!!!

[@ohheyitsadrian4412]

I used to belly flop 3/4 through the swim season. What really helped me was visualizing (or actually have) hula hoops that you have to jump through both in the air and in the water. You may be aiming too far forward, try aiming a little closer when you dive in the water

[@smajke7261]

Just practice bro

[@marthaloves7701]

Tuck in your chin and keep your arms straight

[@niaaxo2081]

Sameeee

[@hxna9065]

You’ll be fine ! XD

[@gabilovestulips]

I know how to dive, I'm just scared and I don't know why.

[@ivakoleva4943]

Gabrielle Mcdonald Don't worry. You are not alone

[@darlenecartile226]

Same here I'm not really that bad at it Just scared

[@cornbread7685]

OMG SAME!

[@secretangel3665]

[@gustavparson1776]

[@foof3114]

[@KPsOld]

[@walterantonioalbaan5452]

[@marthaknight4234]

[@WafflestheGreat]

[@fr0zenbltz725]

[@SooHanYangAlex]

How to dive in swimming - Track start Feed shoulder-width apart Look towards knee Fingertips first Then shoulders Torso And legs Hold streamline and kick -------------------------------------------------- Grab start - Look directly at knees -------------------------------------------------- Use Grab or Track start Both feet forward One foot forward Wrap toes around edge Hips High, Look down On beep, lean forward Hands in streamline Point hands to flags Kick before losing momentum

[@ExpeditoCalixto]

The best tuto so far!

[@glitchspot4665]

I was waiting ages for the beep there was no beep I made a show of myself xD

[@foof3114]

we don't have a beep either.

[@dailyfortnite6077]

Glitch Spot I'm a perfect swimmer with great dives but you only get the beep noise In a real competitive race, you can't get them at local pools or elsewhere except from real timed races with other swimmers!

[@euhannaramos1458]

Glitch Spot we get beeps here 😂

[@miumihp374]

Glitch Spot I know this was posted a year ago, but just saying.. you can always ask the coach/life saver to wistle instead

[@awesomer1127]

Whenever I dive in my goggles either fall off or water get into them, ive already tried tightening them but it still happens

[@iZzMeVeN]

Make sure that your goggles are so tight that it's difficult to remove, but not so tight that it is uncomfortable. Ensure that when you dive, your goggles are suctioned onto your eyes. The biggest problem when diving with goggles is that the goggles are not suctioned onto your eyes properly. Lastly, ensure that your chin is down to your chest, and don't look up. These things should help your goggles stay on :)

[@idugauaconan2353]

best solution is to look forward a little bit not downward, so your goggles will face the water directly, dont worry about water getting in your nose, this will not happen.

[@libbymaeexxx9174]

Put your goggles under ur cap hope that helps

[@yerbuajeon7262]

awesomer1127 in my opinion it has something to do with the nose bridge

[@sylogene9238]

awesomer1127 Make sure it's dry, also place it in a comfortable position

[@jamessunderland87]

Very useful, thank you!

[@somebodyonce378]

thanks , it's been a great help

[@sammysingh9171]

Thank you, this video really helped

[@alazighaowei5174]

Great video!

[@rameloutlaw7232]

Thank you ,that video really helped.

[@nathanadams3828]

I have tryouts tomorrow and I still don't know how to do this. I just can't bend my body properly and I usually do a belly flop.

[@matthewjohnston2614]

same I belly flop I need to dive cus I'm doing a race and u need to dive

[@jasonzai6416]

+Matthew Johnston Try concentrating on your streamline. Really try to squeeze your head in between your arms whenever you're diving and try to stay in this position throughout. This should solve your bellyflopping problem.

[@dehao]

im trying to do it but yeah, i belly flop and i REALLY HURTS!

[@campabellify]

Thank you so much for this! It really helps!! :D

[@sodapopgirl7890]

I like this video it's very helpful and makes its clear

[@lelethunjikela7582]

learnt a lot thanks

[@jackriley77]

It feels so unnatural going heAd first into a pool

[@rajhoney1902]

[@tablitavander]

Thank you!

[@kamil99991]

I'll try it today at the pool, tkanks a lot.

[@AsianMassageTeacher]

Very nice.

[@reneehassani]

thanks!!

[@hinakhn007]

Thanks.

[@KN-ev1tq]

thanks! I just wish the yellow band of words weren't displayed across the bottom when she dives in, because it obstructs the view of the angle of her head when she enters the water. Or, if you'd show her from the side as she's entering the water, that would also allow us to see the angle of her head AND arms, so we can better grasp the concept of not pointing downward, but pointing outward. Is it just shy of a belly flop? I feel like I"m not pointing down because I come out close to the surface instead of the bottom, but I lose my goggles every single time.

[@saharkha6544]

I'm looking for the one in which your vertical in the water and move your legs as you are in the bicycle. Which video?

[@jamesgoddard6234]

If you are a competitive swimmer FORGET the grab start it's too slow , all about the track start especially with the new blocks

[@jameszhang7420]

Really helps

[@kaydenmontoya547]

Thanks

[@frankcobb]

im doing a diving leson next week that will be usefull

[@julianazareno4989]

You dont do flutter kicks after diving. You do dolphin kicks instead

[@yeet_yunmo3620]

Does anybody know the diving technique usually performed by divers? They’ll push off and do almost like a movement mid air, it’s so graceful

[@ArpanDasRockstar]

Nice information

[@clairezhu5380]

same

[@jayyyayyy7712]

Guys I have a question because I’ve never gone off a diving board once ur in the water so I swim up to go up or will I automatically go up

[@asc479]

by kicking before losing momentum, should I kick butterfly?

[@sasasarahok]

any tips on how our head should be like once we kick off from the board?

[@reindeerman214]

"Put your hands forward towards the flags (in my case other end of the pool)". Yeah, I'm gonna bellyflop so fucking hard.

[@jackkoshel9759]

You should make new videos of the shallow end eight feet.

[@shawnlee3957]

I swim for scsc and that is where this is held!!

[@oshineddymurphy8597]

Great swimmers. I really love these.

[@jasminemccann2863]

Im a swimmer and its easy 2 dive!

[@darshanachawathe1413]

I understand

[@wolfieAJ-ln5gm]

I know how to dive it's just my technique is bad. And since I'm a open water swimmer I don't dive. And I'm going to swimming trials for the school swim team'... Wish me luck..

[@wolfieAJ-ln5gm]

Any tips that could help...

[@PandaGirl-hl9li]

8wolfie2003 AJ have you ever tried watching other more improved swimmers I mean it really. Helps

[@wolfieAJ-ln5gm]

Lilly Peaches I have and it has helped a bit

[@PandaGirl-hl9li]

8wolfie2003 AJ well that's a good start so maybe if u ask them about their technique they can give u some tips but if that fail just keep trying

[@noahborton1568]

I’m a pretty good swimmer, but when I swim for my club we don’t have any blocks so we don practice diving, I’ve tried a few times but I’m awful any tips???

[@01rivertrader]

When diving if your head is down and your neck is flat with your streamline arms your head should take the impact of the dive.Also make sure your goggles are a proper fit for your face. When you next dive over correct and put your chin to colarbone. hope that helps

[@sarahqusous6901]

+ryes warp I know your problem you have to get a good kind of googles like adidas or speedo so ya hope you learned

[@Th3Zombieproject]

I used to afraid that I couldn't dive but it's easy when you practice a little

[@emilymudhill1204]

I suck at starting, and I have bruises on my legs from where they hit the water HARD. They don't hurt, but they look like they would.

[@mobilegamer6882]

I do 200 breathstroke and 200 free and 75 backstroke 75 butterfly pretty hard somtimes

[@seanna3863]

When you jump of the diving block, and first enter the water you're supposed to dolphin or butterfly kick until you get to the surface. Unless you're doing the breaststroke, then you'd immediately go into your breaststroke or frog kick.

[@jennaalexis8207]

I have my first meet coming up and I am worrying about the dive because I sometimes go really deep into the water and I have a fear of drowning.. The pool i'm swimming at is around 12ft but the one I normally swim in is 6ft. Is there anyway to keep myself from diving to deep?

[@window7000]

Make sure you really push off of the block so you land further instead of landing closer. Don't be afraid to really get a good jump and pushing THAT hard off the blocks, it'll help to land further instead of landing closer and diving deeper.

What is memento? And streamline?

[@mobilegamer6882]

I'm a swimmer at norris middle school in omaha NE perfect dive im pretty good at that sometimes id do penguin dive (this 2/25/2016)

[@ezra9401]

If I use this technique, will I get a rush of water going into my nose? I'll try to blow as hard as I can, in such a way that the outgoing pressure (from my lungs) would withstand the force pushing into the nose? Is that logical? :s

[@krystlevailes1711]

what i like to do is to place my upper lip over my nostrils that way water wont enter. For added effect, trying sniffing your lip into your nostril. But use this with caution because inhaling will take away air from your lungs causing you to not last long underwater.

[@GianniBarberino]

💙🇮🇹 i m gianni ! italian swimming instructor 🇮🇹💙

[@halo2king747]

Thanks for the tips but I don't need them I knew how to dive off of the side of the pool then I played a game with my friends and well it took diving off the diving board I got scared and when I went I just went I didn't think about and made it now I dive all the time but if I thought about it I would have belly flopped 😦

No mention at all on how close she gets to the bottom? (That's what she said)

[@YoMaestro]

Thought you put your hands downwards 😂

[@Rachel-km6rs]

Actually u should do butterfly kicks while in the streamline position. And the grab start doesn't get u a bigger push it's just another dive. Don't list ion to this as a competitive swimmer I find this completely wrong. If ur hands are completely at the flags u have a chance of going straight back up to the water has ur hands actually dictate where ur going when u dive.

[@blueststrawberry]

Keep your head down while you dive

[@kibalilyaj]

did u even read mawh comment i said when i keep my head down i dive to deep and my goggles fall off

[@JR-xq1us]

kibalily🌞 Same with me. It could be that your goggles are too loose, so tighten them up, (but not too tight). If you dive in too deep, maybe reduce the force of falling a bit. Try to keep your eyes forward or below you at the water I've had the same problem before but now all I am stuck with is being scared of diving xD Well, good luck!

[@kibalilyaj]

lol thanks its getting way easier now
