Picture yourself standing at the bottom of the steps of the diving board during a competition. Imagine the thoughts racing through your head, your palms becoming sweaty, and the sound of your heart beat. What may feel like an eternity waiting at the bottom of those steps, is only about 30 seconds, a very crucial 30 seconds. You’re on deck!
There is nothing quite like the anticipation of being the next diver on deck, standing at the bottom of the stairs while the diver before you takes their plunge. Listening to the crowd, hearing the board as it rebounds, and being mindful of the crowd’s reactions.
In between rounds, divers tend to have a fair amount of time. Every diver is different and will engage themselves in a variety of activities whether it’s listening to music or playing “Go-Fish” with other divers.  However, when it is almost time for your turn, the headphones and cards are put away, and all of a sudden you exit your bubble and are exposed to the commotion of the crowd, the announcer, and the other competitors.
