All the other transitions seem pretty straight-forward to me, and I think I get off the wall pretty quickly on those, but for some reason I feel like I'm hanging on the wall too long on the back-to-*** and I just know I'm doing something wrong.
Should I be facing the opposite wall when i let go of the wall? or is facing the side ok?
Anyone have a trick or a technique for getting feet on the wall quickly?
Any help or advice you all can give is greatly appreciated.
Thanks guys!
now wait a minute. Are #1 and #3 the same turn??? (gees I am having a hard time understanding this turn, even if I started practicing it few weeks ago already).
This is my problem too - The swimmer in #1 seems to keep his feet IN the water and to lean to the side and move his feet to the wall. Swimmer #3 seems to do more of a flip that goes almost straight back and his feet clearly leave the water.
I'm still struggling with what to do about this and lately I've just been focusing on making my open turn as fast as possible. I really should find someone to just teach me this thing....
I'll keep studying these videos too - it may just sink in! Thannks for posting these
