I am still new to swimming, so as practicing at the local pool I noticed that people do turns in freestyle differently.Some do a turn when you kinda do the somersault and some just sort of dive in and then just flip over on their side and then push off the wall.Obviously I cannot do either right now so I was wondering which one is the best to do and what is the exact way to do it.
Thanks.

There was an older thread about flips, and I brought it to the top for you to find, hooked.
There is a link in it for a video on flip turns.
The guy does his pretty much like I do, although he is already starting to rotate when he hits the wall. Given that he's in the "movies", I would tend to say that he's probably doing it more correctly than I do.
Oh. And if you're diving deeper on the push-off, then I'm sure you're not fully rotated on the flip when your feet hit the wall.
