Though it normally dives and swims using only its feet for propulsion, it may use its wings as well if it needs to turn or accelerate quickly.

Some wings, known as bungee wings, incorporate systems that use elastic to constrain the wing when it is less than completely full and accelerate air dumping.

Its flight is powerful and direct, with wings held stiff and straight.

Tapered wings with straight leading and trailing edges can approximate to elliptical lift distribution.

Typically, straight wings produce between 5 – 15 % more induced drag than an elliptical wing.
