The force of gravity increases your potential energy as you increase your distance from the Earth's surface. Therefore, when you climb to the top of a diving board you have more potential energy due to gravity than you had on the ground.
Assuming that the two are the same man ... the man diving from a 10 meter board would have five times the potential energy as the man on the 2 meter board. The energy is directly proportional to the height.
Kinetic energy, and gravitational potential energy.

potential energy
The diver at the top of a diving board has potential energy
The higher the diving board, the more increase of potential energy.

Potential energy acquired by the board riding up the mountain on a lift.

Kinetic energy, and gravitational potential energy.
Yes but not both at the same time. All energy is conserved, therefore energy before equals energy after. For example jumping from a ten metre diving board you have gravitational potential energy as you are fulling gravitational potential energy is converted to kinetic energy.
Mechanical energy is the sum of kinetic energy and potential energy of some object. So any object in motion, has potential to be in motion, or has both has mechanical energy. Your car in motion has kinetic energy and potential for more kinetic energy in the gasoline that it runs on. So your car has mechanical energy. Or you up on the three-meter diving board at the pool have potential for kinetic energy when you take a swan dive off that board. You have mechanical energy there. But, bottom line, pretty much any object that is either in motion or can be put into motion has a form of mechanical energy.

You may not step on the board because it is considered a foul.
