platform diving
Platform diving is a competitive sport where athletes jump from a raised platform, typically 10 meters high, into a pool of water. Divers perform acrobatic maneuvers, including twists and flips, before entering the water. The goal is to execute these movements with precision and grace.
Judges score the dives based on factors such as difficulty, technique, and entry into the water. Olympic diving events often feature both individual and synchronized diving, where pairs of divers perform together. Safety measures, including proper training and equipment, are essential to minimize the risk of injury during dives.
