Diving 2017

I love when my kids try new sports.Or when they try anything new, really. There is adventure in trying new things and I feel like I'm a bit adventurous, so I'd love my kids to be, as well.

The kids start on the 1 meter board, jumping and learning the bounce of the board. Then they learn how to approach the bounce, then lean over to dive. and then the jump approach with a dive. 
Let's just say that we didn't quite master it yet, but they sure were getting better and better each week.   











After they have done the 1 meter board for a while, they get to try the 3 meter board. Koa said it's a lot higher than it looks.

This bucket is full of warm water. It's a quick dive in a cold pool and then they have to wait their turn on deck. They get cold, so they have a warm water bucket to share.


I went to watch several of their Friday night practices and took video, so I made a little video of all the clips that I had, so far...



They are much braver than I am, actually...;)
