Mnemonic

This white dude is a huge techie (てき) so he has electronic enhancements that make sure he hits the target. Being a techie has its advantages.

Hints

He hits the water right on target and the water splashes onto you. Since he was a techie, he was able to perform the perfect dive. And now you’re all wet.
