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 ?

Since I learned freestyle flip turns way back in the late 1960's, when I started them again it came naturally, and I don't know how people have some diffculty learning them. But I guess learning them first time as an adult makes it harder. Beware of the Ides of March folks, tommorrow.
