The front crawl, also known as freestyle, is believed to have originated among Native American swimmers in the early 19th century. It was later popularized in the late 1800s and early 1900s when Australian and American swimmers began using the technique in competitions. Its efficiency and speed made it the dominant stroke in competitive swimming.

The American crawl involves further extension of the arm at the water-entry point and a faster kick, compare to the Australian, which is only of historical interest. What today is called the front crawl is the American crawl.
There is no such stroke. The 4 strokes are freestyle (front crawl), breaststroke ("frog kicks" with "ice cream shape" pulls on your front), backstroke (circular arm motions with straight leg kicks on your back), and butterfly (double arms forward with a dolphin kick on your front).

Some people call it the front crawl. Most people call it Freestyle. It is generally the fastest stroke which is swum on your stomach.
The front crawl is classified as a competitive swimming skill and is considered one of the most efficient and fastest swimming strokes. It involves a combination of arm movements, flutter kicks, and rhythmic breathing, requiring coordination, balance, and endurance. Mastery of the front crawl is essential for competitive swimmers and is often taught as a foundational stroke in swim training.
