I&amp;#39;ve gotten to the point where I get over OK pretty much where I need to be. My problem is that when I push off on my back, I&amp;#39;m somehow angling myself downward, so that I&amp;#39;m looking up at the surface from about 5 feet away</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 12</generator><item><title>RE: Flip turn diagnosis needed</title><link>https://community.usms.org/thread/63087?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Sun, 18 Mar 2007 12:59:18 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:240dfed5-3615-43ff-8af5-3585cff9fc8f</guid><dc:creator>Former Member</dc:creator><description>I think also if you make a hard and fast ab crunch to start the somersault, you&amp;#39;ll be in better position.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Flip turn diagnosis needed</title><link>https://community.usms.org/thread/63007?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Sun, 18 Mar 2007 11:42:11 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:90b069c1-ad82-4186-a5e9-9f96bc3ad01f</guid><dc:creator>Former Member</dc:creator><description>I totally agree with what has been said here.  Start the turn a little further away from the wall so you aren&amp;#39;t in a really tight ball, at the Cross or before, and make sure you place your feet lower on the wall before pushoff.

It&amp;#39;s just practice and lots of repetitions....

You may also be flipping too close to the wall, which can make you put your feet too high on the wall.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Flip turn diagnosis needed</title><link>https://community.usms.org/thread/62756?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Sun, 18 Mar 2007 05:17:14 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:68450401-284d-4b0e-a0cd-763a04e4cd98</guid><dc:creator>Former Member</dc:creator><description>try to place your feet lower on the wall, that will prevent you from going down&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
