The Speed Entry™ Maneuver is a revolutionary new lifesaving entry that allows a rescuer to enter the water and reach a distressed or drowning swimmer at a much faster rate than older, slower entries such as the stride jump entry.
The Speed Entry™ is not a dive and, if done correctly, the rescuer's head should never get wet. The LIFE™ Rescue Tube is positioned between the rescuer and the water, much like a small surfboard, allowing the rescuer upon contact with the water, to glide forward directly towards the victim at a fast rate of speed. The Speed Entry™ position also allows the rescuer to easily transition into a faster Surf Paddle™ approach and subsequently into one of the new LIFE™ Rescue Tube rescue maneuvers.

Lifesaving Reinvented! Introducing the 50" LIFE™ Rescue Tube & The Sight Entry™, a revolutionary new implement & maneuver, both designed to speed up & enhance the lifeguard's ability to save lives! The 50" LIFE Rescue Tube adds increased buoyancy and form factor to the already proven design of the LIFE Rescue Tube. The Sight Entry is a new lifesaving entry that coupled with the LIFE Tube, is the fastest and most effective lifesaving water entry performed from a height. It is called the Sight Entry because lifeguards performing this entry can maintain their line of sight on the victim upon impact. The lifeguard also stays at or near the surface of the water which allows a faster recovery time to begin the lifesaving approach stroke.
