How to Use the Lillipad Diving Board Safely

March 25, 2026

Mounted right off the back of the boat, the LilliPad Diving Board brings a new level of excitement for kids and adults alike. But before anyone takes the leap, a few simple steps help ensure every jump is as safe as it is fun.

Check The Depth

Before using the diving board, always make sure you’re in deep enough water. Because you’re jumping from above deck level, a minimum depth of 15 feet is recommended to avoid contact with the bottom.

Get Set-Up Correctly

The board is designed with both adult and child settings. Before use, insert the pin into the appropriate position based on the user. This helps maintain proper performance and reduces unnecessary strain on both the board and the boat.

Adjust The Stabilizing Bar

Get the stabilizing bar at a comfortable height and make sure it’s firmly in place. It provides added balance as you climb up and steady support right before your jump.

Make A Splash

Once everything is set, you’re ready to go. The LilliPad Diving Board turns a simple swim stop into something everyone looks forward to—one more way Crest helps create days you’ll remember.

As always, a little preparation goes a long way toward keeping your time on the water safe and enjoyable.
