How to Control Which Side to Turn to in Flip Turn?

I have been practicing flip turn for some while. All my turns are to my right side. I intentionally try to turn to the left but mostly fail. However I have seen many other swimmers turn to their left most of the time. I was wondering what are the critical points that control which side to turn to? I guess mastering this will help me to get a better feeling and balance under the water. Do you also think so? Thanks!

  • I just started rolling CCW several weeks ago after rolling CW for almost 2 years (amount of time I've been swimming). Found it was more streamlined for me because it places less stress on the left shoulder and more on the right since my left shoulder has tissue damage from a former injury. I know this because it's faster and feels better.
