What to do when you can't swim

You walk, like this common pond skater (Gerris lacustris):

^{Olympus Stylus 1s, 300mm, ISO200, f5.6, 1/40s}

I also noticed a spider doing the same. No idea what kind of spider this is, though (edit: it's a wolf spider, thanks @mweich!):

^{Olympus XZ-1, 112mm, ISO100, f4, 1/80s}

Have fun swimming!
