I am taking a swimming class and need some help with my flip turns. I have two major problems with my turn. One problem is that I regularly get water up my nose. The second problem is that by the time I get all the way over and push off the wall I am all out of air and need to pop up to the surface gasping for breath; which gets me totally out of rhythm.
I would appreciate any suggestions to my delema,

Hi flipper-- try humming (breathe out through your nose) while tumbling, and come out of the turn on your side. This way you are more streamlined, and ready to take a breath with your first stroke.
