Ok I have been practicing my flip turns again. I am not too good at it I end up going sideways coming off the wall. I need to get a nose plug too because I cant get the hang of breathing out on the turn and water pours in my nose. Any flip turn tips..

    A couple of other tips: When you tuck your head, TUCK YOUR HEAD. Chin on chest. Also do not extend your legs too early in the turn. Your body will rotate faster the closer your legs are to your body (simple physics). You don't want to turn you body into a ball - but you don't want your legs extended either.
