- Take a deep breath and hold it
- Float in a vertical position with your face down in the water. Only the back of your head should breach the surface. The air in your lungs will keep you floating.
- Relax. The purpose of the survival float is to conserve energy.
- Let your arms and legs dangle. Your arms may float up to the surface.
- Raise your head when you need a breath of air. If you need to, bring your arms and legs slightly upward to the surface, then push them downward to help you elevate your head for a breath.
- Return to a relaxed floating position.
