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.:(

Also you're probably exhaling too much during your flip turn (many people do to avoid getting water up their nose) -- with time you learn to hold your breath so you don't have to exhale during it, saving your breath for a few kicks until you clear the water!
