How to do a fast flipturn in freestyle. Swimming technique

Most people when they swim slow down during the flip turn. However, the flip turn should be a boost of speed during your swim. To do a very fast freestyle flip turn we will take a look at three things that can make it or break it.

The first is the angle at which you push.

To push in a straight angle you need to land with your feet a little bit separated and the knees bent a little more than 90 degrees.

The last point is something most of all struggle with. Because landing perfectly in the wall is very important, many of us look at the wall before we turn. It is not a big deal, but if you want to get a little faster on each wall and every tenth of a second is extremely important to you, then it is worth practicing. By keeping your head in line with your body, you are dragging less water and you will be in a better position to push off the wall.

There you go. Oh and don’t forget to blow bubbles out of your nose or water will get in when you turn.
