My biggest tip for success as a lifeguard is to not let your skills get rusty. That's where I see most lifeguards fail is they take the class, they pass all those skills, and they never really work on it again, and they kind of just let those skills rush to the back of the head, and they forget about it, and then when it comes time to really apply them in an emergency, they're not there. So the biggest tip for success, practice those skills on a regular basis, make sure they're ready for when you really have to use them.
