Back Dive in the Tuck Position - Step by Step Instructions
By Woody Franklin, About.com
As the diver rotates away from the diving board in a tuck position, he or she should now begin the kick out by straightening the legs so that they extend at a 45-degree angle with the water. The arms should not reach back to the water until the legs are extended in order to help stop the rotation of the dive.
