[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our pool has insufficient parking so no stepping up on our end. I don’t get people thinking it can’t be both a hazard AND also nice that Pinecrest stepped up. Does Pinecrest allow divers on that end any other time? It’s absurd that people are claiming it is not a danger.

[b]Over 90% of deck dives with injuries are in less than 6’. [/b]How come we don’t have a consensus that this is a danger? Yes, they stepped up and ran a great meet. Yes, it was a lot of planning and work. Yes, it shuts their pool down. All that can be true and it can also be true that diving in from a deck at 2.5’ of water is a danger.

Absurd that people say: then your kid can scratch, your kid could have done pool familiarization, then your pool can host, then you can join NVSL’s board, the notice from the pool said be careful, we added more water, etc.This is not subjective. It is dangerous or it isn’t. [/quote]

That may be true, dives in the context in those studies were most certainly not differentiated between head first and low, shallow-entry angle dives. In the context of summer swim, we are talking about very low angle dives.[/quote]
