"Amazing"

Kyle finally got his wish and started diving classes yesterday.
They are at the University of Houston natatorium and his teacher is the coach of the U of H diving team.

PawPaw asked him how his diving class was and Kyle replied "amazing". 


They spend the first 30 minutes doing a "dry land" workout.  (Using the trampoline and a diving board in to a foam pit) and the last 30 minutes they spend in the water.


Here are the highlights.  The last "dive" of the video is when they let Kyle go up to the 5 meter platform (that's 16 feet for those of us that are metric system challenged ).  

As you'll see, he wasn't ready to dive off that one just yet.  Knowing Kyle he'll be doing it in no time though.
