Synchronized Divers Try To Keep Up With Cheerleaders | SELF

The shoe is on the other foot! We challenged a group of synchronized divers to try to keep up with skilled cheerleaders. Olivia, Monique, and Joey train to complete three acrobatic cheer challenges and put them together into one synchronized routine. Will Olivia adjust to wearing shoes while performing? Can Joey get used to landing on his hands? Does Monique have the balance to be hoisted into the air by her diving partners? These amazing athletes work together to prove they can adapt to new techniques and try to keep up with their talented cheerleading coaches.

Synchronized Divers Try To Keep Up With Cheerleaders | SELF

[eujiboo]

Joey is such a natural at cheerleading! I guess his little practice routine at 11 years old really paid off!

[andabanana]

the fact they did a back handspring with barely any training is amazing- and they did it almost perfectly.

[mochafrappe]

That one diver dude should start cheerleading he’s goated
WHY SO MANY LIKES- thanks though lol

[epiphadipity]

YO HOW DID THEY MANAGE TO TUMBLE SO EFFORTLESSLY????

[TequilaPrincessMx]

His inner cheerleader was having the time of his life! He's good! the blonde diver should keep her diving up tho lol

[heysoph.]

Tall diver guy was smiling the whole time just loving it

[vashappeninjas]

The diver that competes for the Philippines has such strong beautiful tumbling!!

[Jumbaride]

Joey's smile throughout this video is evidence he was living his best life. ❤️

I love how the cheerleader teachers were all so clear in their directions and corrections and very supportive :)

[NevaehS]

this was so much fun you really see that they are embarrassed and a little nervous but they always find a certain appreciation for another sport since they all just love sport! and that makes it just so enjoyable, I was clapping along every time they managed to do another challenge!

Whoever picked the swimmers needs an award because they made this look easy! They all did great, I was pleasantly surprised. Awesome job to the cheerleaders and the divers

The shorter diving girl when she was doing the first flips was amazing. She looked like she could keep going and going.

[zoew_]

4:00 yeah, joeys got the technique. his jumps were really clean!

[Gwenfckay]

The way they tumbled so effortlessly! I mean I know they do a lot of the same elements and have great body awareness but

[undetestable]

I'm sure that man (Joey?) is an excellent diver but he low key may have missed his calling by not pursing cheerleadering. He seems like a natural and he also just seems to be having a great time in general.

[amandalupacchino]

The one guy really embraced his inner cheerleader. He killed it!

[Bribreezzzyy]

Are you kidding!?!! The divers KILTED IT. My little cheerleader heart was so full! 🥰

[Steviesbestsong]

Joey is such a joy to watch 😭😭 I love that he got to live out his childhood memory in a routine and learn more! Everybody did awesome. Great job!

[yknowthatgirl]

I’m so glad Joey got to live his Bring it On fantasy. They all did so well

[ps]

Amazing! They are naturals. Great tumbling especially. They picked up so quickly. I loved Joey's jumps. With a little more practice he could link all the movements together more fluidly and would look amazing. I also think Monique has a cheer body, and she has good form!
