Bio:

Owen Weymouth, 19, is from Plymouth, England. He started diving at the age of 6 in his hometown and has since achieved 4 national junior titles. At the age of 13, Weymouth decided to turn his attention to professional cliff diving when his dream of making the Olympic games in 10 meter diving was becoming too far fetched. He balanced a 6 day training week with full time education and studied with the ambition of going to medical school. His breakthrough came in 2016 after a very successful amateur season which led to invitations to his first professional events in Red Bull and FINA. He has put University studies on hold to focus on a professional diving career and making “The Clean Cliffs Project” a reality. Weymouth says: “It has been an amazing experience to become a professional athlete and now I cannot wait to develop the project and watch it flourish
