What's "front crawl"? I know what crawl is...

It's always called front crawl here to distinguish it from back crawl.

I need to learn it at this late stage in life because I want to do some wild swimming, and the buoyancy of wetsuits makes swimming breaststroke (my usual stroke) difficult. I'm assured that front crawl is the answer (as well as being faster).

Ah, OK. We call "back crawl" "backstroke".

Go you! I've never got the hang of front crawl.
