The '''diving board''' is a [[build mode]] object in ''[[The Sims]]'', ''[[The Sims 2]]'', and ''[[The Sims 3: Seasons]]''. It must be placed on the side of a [[swimming pool]], and must stick out over the water. In general, how well Sims dive, and how likely they are to change their minds about diving once on the board, depends on their [[body]] or [[Athletic (skill)|athletic]] skill. However, a Sim with high Body/Athletic skill may still do a poor dive, and may still get nervous and decide not to dive.
 
Sims will use a diving board autonomously. This could cause a minor problem in ''The Sims'', as a Sim who wanted to dive would not get out of the way of a Sim who was trying to walk off the board. The Sim who wanted to leave the board would be stuck until the Sim who wanted to dive changed his or her mind and walked away.
 
==The Sims 3==
The diving board returns in ''[[The Sims 3]]'' in [[The Sims 3/Patch 42|Patch 42]],<ref>[http://forum.thesims3.com/jforum/posts/list/75/591849.page#9505447 SimGuruGraham's post on diving boards in a patch]</ref> which is relevant to ''[[The Sims 3: Seasons]]''. It is similar to the diving board in ''The Sims 2'' but costs more, looks different and has more interactions.
 
Sims can drench nearby Sims who are not swimming when diving into the pool, making them soaked. The larger a Sim is, the bigger the splash the Sim will make in the pool. Stunt moves such as "cannon balls" or "swan dives" may be possible.
