Pushing through maximum depression to increase springboard dive height

(Pushing through maximum depression to increase springboard dive height)

The results of the present study suggested that an effective pattern for board deflection incorporates a slowing followed by an increase in knee extension velocity allowing divers to push through maximum board depression. Seven of the 9 divers who scored 8.0 and above on the reverse dive pike employed this strategy.
