front dive
Pool entry style
A front dive is a dive performed facing forward, entering the water headfirst while the body rotates toward the water.
It's one of the basic diving positions, distinguished from back dives, reverse dives, and inward dives by the diver's forward-facing takeoff: She executed a clean front dive with a half twist.
