I would do a poll but don't know how.
My pool does not circle swim. I have my own lane. When I learned to flip turn I roll to the right i.e. when I roll I will be looking left when I break out. When I occasionally circle swim, I find this to be aqward and have difficulty heading to the right side of the lane on pushoff.
My question is, do coaches prefer teaching one over the other?

I usually go right so I can take a breath as soon as I break out. My coach tells me I need to take a stroke or two before I breathe but I taught myself to flip turn and now I can't un-learn it. :shakeshead: :help:
