Development of Diving Entry Training Model Based on Simulation Equipment

This research aims to produce and test the effect of entry training with dryland entry movement simulation equipment on diving. The method used in this study was Research and Development (R&D). This research model employed the ADDIE development model. The stages of this research include analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. This study involved four experts to assess the developed equipment. The population and sample in this study were diving athletes from the province of South Kalimantan, Indonesia. Data analysis used in this study was a statistical analysis using SPSS 25. The findings of this study include an analysis of the necessity for developing dryland entry training equipment, which yielded a 96% result, indicating a high level of need. In the assessment of the product’s completeness, a score of 90.2% was achieved, suggesting that the initial product design was highly appropriate. Expert evaluations yielded a score of 93.1%, indicating that the product was of very high quality. A small-group trial of the equipment yielded a score of 87%, reflecting a very good outcome. The large-group trial produced a score of 93%, also indicating very good performance. Finally, an analysis of the equipment’s impact on entry ability, conducted through a paired sample t-test, yielded a Sig. (2-tailed) value of 0.000, which is less than 0.05. This indicates a statistically significant effect of the dryland entry training equipment on the entry skills of diving athletes. 1) This research produces a product of entry training equipment on land to train the entry abilities of diving athletes. 2) There is a significant influence of training using entry equipment on land on the entry abilities of diving athletes.
