Answer
Anna -

There are several to choose from. Here is a list:

www.flipnrip.com - Free videos at this site for divers and parents.On the home page, click on videos and then look for diving lessons. Others to choose from. If you have to register, it is free.

www.laurawilkinson.com - This woman is our most successful USA diver having won a gold medal in all the major international events. She has a DVD that demonstrates the proper training methods all divers should use.

www.usadiving.org - This is the website run by the national governing body of the sport. Click on Store and then Educational Materials. Scroll down to videos and look for number 100 - World Class Form. It is rather old but very informative. Also consider numbers 103, 104 and 105.

Hope this helps.
