I have trouble flipping directly over and landing on my back for the push off. I usually flip diagonally and do an immediate corskscrew type of push-off. Are there exercises (possibly using some sort of swimming gadget) that can help me correct this flip turn flaw? -Jon
Why is it now preferred to flip straight and then turn on your belly? For me it seems to be slower. :fish2:
I suppose it depends on when you roll over. We were just working on flip turns at practice last night. Flip straight over (really, tumble is more like it), push off, then while doing your streamline dolphin kicks roll back over onto your stomach.
