Welcome!

Hello my name is Stephen and I go to a school near Pittsburgh.  My topic is learning more about the workouts and getting in shape for diving; what makes you the best and what’s the hardest dive. This topic is an interest for me because I just started the sport and I'm going to be in it for another 4-6 years. I started doing tricks and stuff like flips on a trampoline, not a board. When I first heard of the sport I thought I would be good at it because I can hit all the tricks we do there on a trampoline. What I'm going to mainly be talking about is what the workouts are for diving, and which of the five main dives is the hardest. Like I said I just started the sport and clearly don't know everything, but I'm going to learn and keep you updated and teach you what I learn.
Although I don’t know a lot I do know some, I'm a South Fayette diver that has gone three quarters of our season on the varsity team.  I can throw most of the flips like I said but I haven’t mastered ever single one yet, but I’m good for a first year diver. I already made it to wipials when it takes some people four years to do so, and sometimes they don’t even make it then. My goal in this sport is to make it to states two or three of the four years I’m going to be diving in high school and place good. States is the step after wipials that most people train for the hardest; it’s the biggest event in any sport. I hope you all enjoy my blog and learn more about the sport as I post and keep you updated.
