This page is my very own training/workout journal, and also a collection of diving quotes, photos, videos, and links that I find online. My name is Eric Teske, and I have been diving since 1991. I am recently retired from varsity diving at Miami University (Ohio) where I dove from 2002-2007. After that, I had an exhibition season in the ASA.U (American Swimming Association University League) where diving was an unsanctioned event. I’m looking to get into some Masters diving, and maybe compete in the 2014 Gay Games in Cleveland. I’ve been frustrated by the conflict between my love of diving and the sport’s inaccessible nature at times. Runners can always run, swimmers can usually swim, but finding a “real” diving board is often difficult and expensive. I’m a fan of diving, and wanted to make a site where I could share information, photos, articles, and videos with other diving fans! None of the professional photos or videos are original content.
