The Back Roll Entry

More on this skill: bit.ly/2y1AsfE
This video demonstrates the back roll entry from a small boat.
Learning to perform the backroll entry is an important skill to master. Many times dives are from a small boat or an inflatable boat without an entry/exit platform, making the backroll entry a necessity. New divers are often apprehensive about this particular skill. However, once the skill is learned and practiced, it is a simple way to exit small boats.
This skill is especially useful when a giant stride entry is not possible. Just keep in mind that the goal isn’t to somersault or flip into the water, but rather simply roll off the small boat into the water. There’s no gymnastics, just gravity. When done correctly, the skill is as easy as the old adage, “falling off a log.”

But why do they do this?

If they fell forward they'd still be in the boat
