    Hi all, I have got video clips of back-*** rollover turn. And I just cannot do it. Do you have drills of step-by-step then I can learn it step-by-step. Btw, while you touch the wall on your back, then you turn to you side, your head down all the way towards the bottom of the pool as you are doing a flip turn… So what is origin of power to turn on you side?? Please share your expertise…. Thank you very much.
  • There have been officials who have never seen the rollover turn before I did it in a meet, and they were confused and initially DQ'd me because it was different. I wondered if they had ever watched an elite swimmer race the IM before? Jeff I've seen officials get confused by seeing something they have never seen before, too. I officiate age group meets and I've always taken the attitude that if I have to ask myself "was that legal?" then it is a no call because an official must be certain of the rule before calling a DQ.
