The ability to move on to more complicated and advanced skills will vary by student and ability to progress to more advanced skills must be determined by the instructor. Skills taught would include; board etiquette, hurdles, lead-ups, jumps, dives, and positions. This will be done with the goal of preparing students to have a 10 competition dive list with dives in all categories. Categories of dives will include; Fronts, Backs, Reverses, Inwards, and Twists. Positions may vary from tuck, straight, free, and pike positions.
