Diving Champs Olympic form is displayed by leading American women divers off the three-meter board. When the spray clears away Mary Frances Cunningham swims away with the national title. The first lady diver attempting to perform airborne acrobatics before entering the water gracefully. The second diver starting position is from the high dive making sure she's away from the platform an she does some kind of backward tuck holding her knees. The third diver does her dive - backwards in a straight position entering the water head first with her legs together feet pointed entering the water making a very little splash which indicates a very good dive. CU shot - A pretty smiling face of an accomplished diver.
