      Yes. Dive 5121 A is a front dive with one somersault and a half twist in the straight position. Mary did her dive in the wrong position. For those of you wondering, this is how the dive number is calculated: 1. Each dive category is assigned a number as follows: Forward=1 Back=2 Reverse=3 Inward=4 and Twister=5. 2. All of the dives are three digit numbers (except for twister which has four digits) 3. The last number in a three digit dive stands for the amount of S.S. as follows: 1=none, 2=one S.S., 3=one and ½ S.S. etc. 4. The 2nd # in a five digit dive stands for the corresponding category (see 1.). 5. The 3rd # in a five digit dive stands for the amount of S.S. you do (see 3.). 6. The final # in a five digit dive stands for the amount of twists you complete as follows: 1=a ½ twist, 2=1 twist, 3=1 and ½ twists, etc. 7. Finally, the attached letter stands for the position that you are in as follows: A=straight, B=Pike, C=Tuck, D=Free Position.
