About Dryland Diving

Dryland training for springboard diving is a vital ingredient for success in the sport of diving today. Many diving teams use dryland facilities for more than 75% of their practice sessions and a trend has developed over the last 10 years for clubs to have a separate facility for this type of training method.

Dryland training involves using a trampoline, or diving board with a port-a-pit or landing pit. In conjunction with the trampoline or dryland board is a spotting belt and ropes that allow the divers to spin or twist while held in the air by a certified coach acting as the spotter. Using a spotting apparatus allows the diver to practice a dive in a safe and efficient manner.
