A waterspider can stand on water due to its specialized adaptations, including its lightweight body and the ability to create surface tension. The hairs on its legs trap air, allowing it to distribute its weight evenly across the water's surface. This prevents it from breaking the surface tension, enabling it to walk or glide on water without sinking. Additionally, the unique structure of its legs minimizes the disruption of the water surface, further aiding its ability to stay afloat.
