The Dives and Application...Twisting Dives
Figure
K
The front dive with one somersault and one twist (Figure K) can appear to be tricky, but it involves the same conservation of momentum as the other dives, only along two axis of rotation.
When the diver takes off from the board, he begins his flipping rotation by throwing his upper body down towards his legs. Next, he unfolds while rapidly wrapping his arms about his body. This begins the twisting motion. From here, all the diver has to do is figure out what his orientation in the air is in order to know when to straighten his body to counter the flip and when to unwrap his arms to counter the twist before entering the water.
