description Dive Roll Overview
A dive roll is a forward roll entered from a brief flight phase: the athlete leaves the ground in a forward dive, reaches toward the floor, and continues the motion into a roll across the shoulder and back. It is taught in gymnastics and used in activities such as wrestling and parkour to help manage forward momentum during a landing. Proper practice depends on a clear surface, controlled rotation, and keeping the head from striking the ground.
