cat dive

A dive done from a diving board where the diver doesn't complete the intended dive & crashes into the water like a cat being thrown into a lake. Similar to a belly flop.

A tactical maneuver similar to "drop-shotting" or "swan/dolphin diving" it is when one sprints then jumps and dives from the jump into the prone position and then "sprays" or shoots their enemy/target. Russian Cat Diving works just as well to dodge. It proves very ineffective in most cases but can be good for getting out of a snipers sights. This tactical maneuver is similar to a "barrel roll" where you yell at your friend to do it to save them.
