The flying maneuver used by athletes in high diving is known as the dive. Divers perform a series of complex rotations and twists while airborne before entering the water. High diving competitions typically take place from platforms at heights of 10 meters (33 feet) or more. Athletes are judged based on the execution, difficulty, and overall aesthetic quality of their dives. Mastery of technique and air control is essential in high diving to ensure successful and safe entries into the water.
