hahahaha. Yeah, it looks like I'm about to dive into something in these shots! I've since bought a better camera. I think it's time to revisit the diving videos!!!!!
@@Titanver Hahaha. You guys doing these tricks at home!? POST EM on UA-cam!! I'm thinking of doing some trick shot videos with a frisbee or football next.
I just want to say thanks for this vid just learned everything on the list and some of it I already knew, however the Arabian is now my favorite way to start a trick now thanks!
Thanks!!! Yeah, I want to get on a tall board soon! You should checkout the top 51 list for the double front flip! And currently working on the double back 😅
You have to jump forward (obviously) and it’s easy to lean forward. You almost have to lean back a tiny bit after jumping, then get in a real small ball. I do something with my hands, but I don’t know what exactly 🤣
Is your board a jump stand, meaning it’s springy? It looks as such. What length is the board, and your pool? We’re having n 18x36 vinyl liner pool installed now, with a 10’ deep end. I went deeper and sacrificed some shallow area so we could go with an 8’ springy board.
Nice!!!! My kind is just standard. I think it’s a canteliever board 6’. Like this www.poolzoom.com/6-cantilever-board-base-wht.html?gad=1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI9ea9neqBgQMV6AutBh39vg_iEAQYASABEgJ5jfD_BwE. My deep end is about 8’6” of water, which I think means it was built as a 9’ deep. 10 will be plenty!!! The danger factor of a full 8’ spring board is noticeable, and it’s always something you could upgrade to later. I like mine, but you’ll always WISH it was bigger and springier, but I wouldn’t upgrade it for the safety of myself and others.
That one was tough to throw at first! I practiced 2 things, which worked for me. 1 - think about practicing big giant front flips - which is the jump you will use. 2 - practice really tight, fully tucked in small front flips, which is the position you use. Then if you think of a front flip as 2 beats, you've gotta remember to hold it for 3 beats before straightening out! GL!
As I kid I was fearless and did anything, now at 42 trying to safely recapture my skills. I have been building my repertoire but it's getting stale. I can do a nice dive, front flip, back flip, back 180 flip, watermelon, sailor dive (no hands dive, also called penguin) and a front flip where you stay stiff as a board instead of tucking. Been trying to get my courage up for the gainer and this is a huge help! (All my jumps have been off a 1 meter board so I'm trying to adjust velocity). There has been alot of over rotating due to the height. Would love it if you broke some of the trickier stuff down in steps? As with most tricky dives, the people who can do them make them look deceptively simple and a breakdown would be awesome. Keep up the tricks!!
Thanks for the comment! I gotta find the nearest 1m board and give it a go! Haha. I’m the same way. I love trampolines, then the insurance company made my parents take it down like 15 years ago. Fast forward to my house with a pool and I’m at it again! I will do a tutorial video soon. I have a tiny tumbling training from college so hopefully all my advice isn’t the worst! Haha. Just need a few sunny days to film more outside! Fall is coming fast here in Minnesota!
@@LeisureLuke Im from New England so I hear you on the finite nature of summer. That's why I'm trying to cram a year's worth of diving tricks into the 3 months of non winter. Appreciate the vids and keep it up! (Maybe some ski jump tricks for winter? Lol).
It’s a scary dive. Get real small on your rotation, hold it for an extra beat (like 1/3 of a second), and straighten out fast. It feels like sharp robotic movements - curl up, and straighten out. Sometimes I’m under or over, but I’ve never hurt myself on that one. The only part you really have to get a feel for is the timing. Film it! No guts no glory! Big jump! LETS GOOOOO!! 🥳🥳👍🏼
The water depth is usually around 8'6" - and that's about 1.5 inches from the top of the skimmer boxes. I like to keep it high like that for extra dive depth, and I think it circulates the water better near my steps. I was rewatching my top 51 dive video and thinking lowering it would give me a little more hang time for that near-impossible #1 trick, which I've only ever pulled of twice! ;)
I learned Mostly just from jumping on the trampoline as a kid… and as an adult! YouTubing videos like this and just trying them over and over is the best way to learn!
Nice.... I will update the title of my other video where I tried that for the first time! It's BY FAR the most satisfying trick I do off the home diving board, although I did just do a back full with trick shot baskeball shot that was EXTREMELY SATISFYING... You a diver?
@@sizzle2266 I mean, pros to double inward jumps and dives... but you need more height or spring than I've got! If you think that's your best rotation go for it!!!!! You doing any other doubles?
You are probably right! I do them all for fun... but I have not done a gainer since filming this video! I hate it so much! Hahaha. It's the most dangerous for sure.
Would you rate it under the full? On a bigger board it would be easier than a full, but here it's definitely harder for me. I come up short about 20% of the time. I can do decent front and back fulls all day!
@@LeisureLuke if u just jump high enough you can easily do a front dive, but i just got used to it. And in my opinion its hard to twist when doing a front or back.
Your failing death dive is not a dive btw it’s and it’s called suicide here in Hawaii and we do it a lot but over all nice one all respect though no disrespect here just a friendly comment
Mahalo! Yeah, that one has several names. Death Dive seems to be the most popular name for it online. It’s also what it’s called in competition. I think Hawaii calling it “suicide” may be in the minority, but still go to know for when I win the lottery and move to Hawaii 🏝🍍🥳

My favorites are the cherry bomb and the front flip dive!
Thanks so much! The cherry bomb looks way more difficult than it really is 🤫
The front flip dive in also called a one and a half
00:38 HOLY CRAP I thought the bar you hold to get up was the end of the pool. I was thinking my mans just broke something. Ahhh that scared me
hahahaha. Yeah, it looks like I'm about to dive into something in these shots! I've since bought a better camera. I think it's time to revisit the diving videos!!!!!
Same
@@Titanver Hahaha. You guys doing these tricks at home!? POST EM on UA-cam!! I'm thinking of doing some trick shot videos with a frisbee or football next.
@@LeisureLuke that would be cool I would watch that
This looks like a ton of fun. Thanks for the list! Gonna try some of these at the pool with my kids.
Yeah buddy, that's what the list is good for! Sounds like a good activity, enjoy!
Can’t wait for a front double. It’s a really fun dive to learn. Also you could try adding a dive to the Arabian.
Great idea! I can’t wait for summer!!!!! Where I live the pool will open in may-ish. I do have one more diving video to edit & upload soon tho!
I just want to say thanks for this vid just learned everything on the list and some of it I already knew, however the Arabian is now my favorite way to start a trick now thanks!
The front flip dive is sick! Imagine on a 10 ft high divong board. So cool.
Thanks!!! Yeah, I want to get on a tall board soon! You should checkout the top 51 list for the double front flip! And currently working on the double back 😅
it’s really fun to do
Awesome video! These were some impressive jumps, I just learned the gainer and I'm gonna try to front half tomorrow, thanks for the ideas 👍
YEEAAAAAHHHHH! Thanks :D If you can do a gainer you can probably do a full! Enjoy trying the new tricks!! There are a few more in my top 51 list too!
Fun fact: a front flip+dive is called a 1 1/2
Just came across this again any tips for the barrel roll
You have to jump forward (obviously) and it’s easy to lean forward. You almost have to lean back a tiny bit after jumping, then get in a real small ball. I do something with my hands, but I don’t know what exactly 🤣
Those look awesome can’t wait to try them!!!
Lemme know how they go!!!

Barrel roll jump is nice😁
And it's easier than you'd think! Thanks for watching!

Hey luke I'm trying to do the front flip dive but I'm scared I'm going to over dive and land on my back. Do you have any tips?
It’s a scary dive. Get real small on your rotation, hold it for an extra beat (like 1/3 of a second), and straighten out fast. It feels like sharp robotic movements - curl up, and straighten out. Sometimes I’m under or over, but I’ve never hurt myself on that one. The only part you really have to get a feel for is the timing. Film it! No guts no glory! Big jump! LETS GOOOOO!! 🥳🥳👍🏼
@@LeisureLuke thanks luke in gonna try it and I'll see how it goes
@@coltonpeters2760 I haven't done mine yet this year. Next time I'm in the pool I'll do it! (should be today or tomorrow).
@@LeisureLuke I finally did the 1 1/2 today!
That Back full is sweet!
Thanks Nathan! Thanks for watchin! I’ve got a lot of good content coming! I literally did that back full for the first time last week! Haha 🤣
Isn't it??? That's what I THOUGHT!!!
I'd love to meet you Luke!!!
how deep is the pool?

I learned Mostly just from jumping on the trampoline as a kid… and as an adult! YouTubing videos like this and just trying them over and over is the best way to learn!
its kind of triggering as a diver the way you hold your hands and the unofficial dives but cool also the front flip dive is a front 1 and a half
Haha. Yeah, this is very much UNOFFICIAL 🤣 Agreed. It’s just fun to have a goal list! As a diver, any good dives you’d add to the list?!?
front glip dive is called and one and a half
Nice.... I will update the title of my other video where I tried that for the first time! It's BY FAR the most satisfying trick I do off the home diving board, although I did just do a back full with trick shot baskeball shot that was EXTREMELY SATISFYING... You a diver?
@@LeisureLuke I can dive pretty well at my local pool
Wow! I used these tricks at my pool today and I was getting some attention 😂
LETS GOOOOOO!!! Pool Trick Day! NICE 👍🏼
@@LeisureLuke 👍
Back flip isn’t advanced I did that the first time I went off a divining board
😆
Just did my first backflip 360 and death dive from 3m yesterday. I'm 30, but I never feel more alive than when I do stupid stuff like this!
Ha! Awesome. Yeah, anything that gives me some adrenaline makes me happy!!!! A 3m board!?! So jealous.
If you can do the frontflip there is a big chance you can do the cherry bomb
AGREED 🥳🥳 but a good high long delayed cherry bomb still takes some practice!
I can do a gainer/back full but not a free standing backflip lmao 😂
If you've got back full in the wheelhouse you're probably better than me!!!!!! I gotta work on that. What other tricks should I add!?
Maybe a double backflip or if your feeling risky a double gainer 😮
If a double gainer is possible I’m not sure 🤔
@@sizzle2266 I mean, pros to double inward jumps and dives... but you need more height or spring than I've got! If you think that's your best rotation go for it!!!!! You doing any other doubles?
@@sizzle2266 I've gotta attempt the double backflip before the end of the summer... I've GOT TO TRY again! Hahahha
anyone see the sub button glow when he said it?
The cherry bombs real name is actually a superman!
Thanks! I think one friend called it a cherry bomb one time, and I trusted him too much 🤣 it’s not fun to do, but it’s a crowd pleaser 🥳🥳😆
@@LeisureLuke i love them so much!
In my opinion gainer is the hardest
You are probably right! I do them all for fun... but I have not done a gainer since filming this video! I hate it so much! Hahaha. It's the most dangerous for sure.

Very cool - use the force
