I am wondering if there are ways you can get hurt doing flip turns. I have done them (slowly) and I am carefull not to hit my legs on the pool edge. I will say they are not (underlined) as easy to do as many swimmers make it look! Especially if you are coming into the wall at any speed!
I can understand world class swimmers getting every edge but other then show offing ..do lap swimmers really need to do this?
Tips on flips Please ?

The only problem you may have with injury is if your pool has a flush deck all around (end walls as well) as I understand the pool to be used in Italy has (World Masters).
But even so just persevere at every workout - flip at every turn - and soon you won't ever want to do any other turn. ;)
