In non-competitive diving, a dolphin dive is a form of rapid entry used by lifeguards to quickly traverse stretches of shallow (waist – chest deep) water.
To perform a dolphin dive: Dolphin dives are performed in rapid succession until the water is neck-deep, at which point the rescuer transitions into an appropriate swimming stroke, such as heads-up front crawl or breaststroke.
