gus 1 #1 March 16, 2004 I'm off to the pool tonight to practice my exits (which haven't been all that great recently ). Any advice on what I should be doing or looking for? Thanks, GusOutpatientsOnline.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hookitt 1 #2 March 16, 2004 Extend the arms and legs into a big "X and be sure to land completely flat. Keep your eyes and mouth wide open. I highly suggest not wearing clothing and cupping the belly for a nice audible "PWOP" sound when entering the water. Hope that helps.My grammar sometimes resembles that of magnetic refrigerator poetry... Ghetto Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gus 1 #3 March 16, 2004 That's enormously helpful, thanks! I assume you're talking about using the 10m board for full "PWOP" effect? GusOutpatientsOnline.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Faber 0 #4 March 16, 2004 i were taught, to jump up and forwards you should then land whith your knees first and the water wont hurt that way(but untill you get it right it could...)

gus 1 #7 March 17, 2004 Quotegirls ofcours,if they show up,stop practicing,it kind of looks silly For anyone that doubted it I can confirm that you do indeed look very silly repeatedly belly flopping in to a pool . Credit to the pool attendant though, who came over and said "Are you practicing to jump out of a plane?". Not bad for a whuffo. Without a doubt the highlight of the evening was when my mentor told the pool attendant that this was special training for 'special' people. LOL! It was definately worthwhile, getting used to the feeling of pushing off too early, too late and that nice slap round the balls when you get it just right.

NeilQ 0 #8 March 17, 2004 >and that nice slap round the balls when you get it just right not sure you wanted to use the word "nice" Mr S+M however I volunteer myself to kick you square in the happy sacs on landing when we jump next Hope CP wasn't wearing those obscene trunks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
