Mainly by being boring.

Joking aside, it’s a diving technique called a “Rip Entry”. It involves a stiff vertical body posture and specific hand placement (one on top of the other with flat palms). Once in the water they immediately spread out their arms to minimize bubbles while simultaneously bending at the waste (which also disperses bubbles).

All this combines gives you that amazing near-zero splash dive.
