Cheerleaders Try To Keep Up With Synchronized Divers

We challenged a group of cheerleaders to try to keep up with synchronized divers. Cheerleaders Hayley, DJ, and Kristen train to complete three diving challenges and put them together into one synchronized routine. Can Hayley adapt her gymnastics skills to nail the perfect dive? Will DJ manage to synchronize his arms before hitting the water? Will all three of our cheerleaders be able to do pull off the final challenge? These amazing athletes take the ultimate test to prove they can adapt to new techniques and try to keep up with their daring diving coaches.

I just love the mutual respect between the athletes in this. They switch between teaching and learning, but are always respectful. I just imagine them going out to drinks together afterwards.

I feel like Olivia and Kristen are so good at their own sports their bodies don’t know how to move any other way (Olivia was slightly awkward in the cheerleading video). I love how fearless and eager everyone is to try something new though.

I don't mean this in any leering kind of way but watching Joey's muscles move under his skin was so fascinating. He had to have like 0% bodyfat so every muscle was visible as it did it's job and it was so cool to watch! I can't imagine the time he puts into his craft to achieve that.

It's funny because you see how their bodies automatically react like they do in cheerleading and then they try to switch and do that little "aaah!" Before touching the water xD Kristen looked nervous but I'm sure if she gets comfortable she'll be amazing

A short quick bust of air out of your nose as your face hits the water, will keep the water out of your nose. Practice off the board first, because you don’t want to blow out all your air, just a little and enough to keep the water out.
