A diving board having a shell including a top surface with one or more pockets formed thereon. The pockets are recessed inwardly from the top surface of the shell and sized to receive a non-slip tread surface therein. The tread surface may be made from any of a variety of suitable materials, such as a composite material primarily comprising cork, and arranged such that the tread surface is substantially flush relative to the top surface of the shell when seated therein. An adhesive layer may be used to adhere the tread surface in the pocket of the shell.

A foldable diving platform for attachment to a wakeboard tower. The platform includes a base section affixable to tubing of the wakeboard tower and a folding section hinged to the based section. The folding section may be rotated about the hinge to enable storage atop the base section or full deployment collinear and coplanar with the base section.

A timing apparatus for an aquatic timing system includes a rigid and planar primary portion, a flange portion extending at an angle from the primary portion, a vibration sensor coupled with the flange portion, and a controller. The vibration sensor is operable to detect a touch event occurring on the primary portion and respond to the touch event by generating a signal. The controller is in communication with the vibration sensor and is configured to receive the signal from the vibration sensor and identify a touch event from the signal. The vibration sensor may be operable to detect the touch event by detecting a vibration on the flange portion that originated from the touch event on the primary portion.

A timing device is provided herein. The timing device includes a housing defining an aperture in a surface thereof. An elongated member is extendable from the housing. A wheel is attached to an interior surface of the housing. An encoder is operably coupled to the wheel and is configured to calculate a rotational velocity of the wheel. A controller is configured to calculate a linear velocity of the elongated member based on the rotational velocity of the wheel.
