The article presents the results that demonstrate the impact of motor asymmetry in diving. Effective development of diving skills is impossible without detecting the cause of motor errors. To win maximum scores for the dive quality requires increased accuracy of performing all dive elements. High-speed videography of dives was carried out to study the manifestations of motor asymmetry. The front and back dives with longitudinal and lateral rotation were performed from 3 and 5 meter platforms. During video analysis two types of errors were identified - technical and background. Technical errors are directly related to the dive technique. Background errors do not fall under the technical ones but have a significant impact on motor control. We ranked there errors among the ones that occur as a result of motor asymmetry. It was found that asymmetric work of the diver’s feet is the most common error in the take-off from support. It is shown that the manifestation of asymmetry in motor accuracy is significantly reduced in the process of improving technical skills.
