The only time I ever circle swim is during warm up at a meet. I'm unsure about one aspect of how to do it properly. If I'm coming into a wall for a turn, do I veer to the left before the wall and then push of straight or do I swim into the wall straight (on the right side) and then push off at an angle? Also, If I want to stop, do I hang out all the way to the right side or left side of the lane (assuming I'm facing the wall)? I've always done it one particular way, but was told recently that the other way was correct. Several beers ride on the answer.
Thanks, Rich
it all depends on the situation the moment you're turning
it's best to veer towards the middle or further left
it's annoying when swimmers turn on the far right then attempt to angle to the other side (they usually don't & it can cause collisions)
