Are flip turns all that fast when you consider how much oxygen they take up??.I have found that I am more able to swim at a regular tempo by doing "open" turns, than trying to do flip turns, which always put me out of my regular breathing pattern.:(
I heard you could save as much as 1-2 sec per lap with two flip turns...that adds up when doing some of the longer swims. Heck, that time-savings could add up even with a short race.
