While it does take a lot of practice, you can learn to flip turn if you put in the work during your workouts!

At 62, after years of "touch and turn" I finally decided to learn flip turn.
I watched several tutorials but yours is the best by a long stretch.
I found it specially useful the drill with the two kickboards .
With some practice (and lots of water in the nose :-) ) I finally can flip turn during a whole 2500 mts training,"
Thanks a million!
Glad we could help! Keep up the hard work!
I agree!
I like that you demonstrated with the two kickboards. That provided a clearer visual of hand positioning during the turn. I have not seen others use that and it is helpful. Nice job!
THANK YOU for this!! I have watched dozens of videos on the subject, but yours was the first one to explain what to do with the hands during the turn! I have spent a lot of time trying to learn the flip but your advice made it happen. Thank you again!
So glad that helped! It can be tricky to master! Keep up the hard work :)
Welp... you didn't talk about the water getting from the nostrils all the way to the spinal cord. Gosh... almost died there.
You just need to exhale through the nose at the same time that you do your flip.
Then, you should not have any problem anymore.
I have watched many videos to improve my turn, but ngl this one is way too professional and straight to the point. Thank you, Taylor!
In order to avoid water getting into the nostrils, it is necessary to blow out during the flip turn. But that empties your lungs, forcing to take breath immediately after the turn. What is a solution?
I try to only blow out slightly has that will loose less air. also you can practice increasing lung capacity has that will help with taking a breath off the wall. it takes some time and i struggled breathing off the wall a lot. for the most part you just need o keep training in order to get passed it
Just hum when you going into the wall/ turn
Thanks for asking this - I do the same thing! She's actually suggesting that you take at least two strokes after the turn before breathing in, which I'm assuming is after the dolphin kick phase. Seems very challenging to master and I'd be keen to hear how I can work on it.
Hello can you please teach me how to swim and skills
Take a good breathe just before the flip turn and only let air out your nose and not your mouth
Thank you for your precious suggestions, they did really improved my flip turn, especially the use of the hands. Well done and keep going! 👏👏
I just love this channel ❤🏊♂️. This woman is like a swimmer rehab technician. She's the type that will immediately diagnose one's flaws and prescribe the right drills. This channel is even therapeutic for me😅. Thank you very much for sharing your experience. Greetings from the Bronx, USA🗽🇺🇸✌❤🏊♂️
In my free style backturn, I'm turning from crawl to backstroke, then turning at the surface. It allows me to breath much more. So to break the surface very far, even on long distances (400, 800, 1500). I noticed Sun Yang breathed much, but didn't break the surface very far. It is also good for your arms, because of two back strokes. One under the surface, the second above. Just like if you woke up in a large and good bed ! I did 25 minutes at fifty years, not especially fit. The last + IS that it is purest, smoothiest turn. So easy ! Sensual: Just like if you dived into the Sky ! You show it well in this post. There are several ways, with one common beginning. Congratulations. I like to innovate, focusing on " not to be disqualified". And to write down about swimming ! I like a New distance : la poursuite ( in french)... You don't know when it ends, because you have to catch your opponent. I learned it all at Tulle, France.
Thank you. Could do this when I raced as a young teenager, but now 60 !!!!!! and having to re-learn !! A great lesson.
Definitely the best I’ve seen and the only one showing a drill for hand position with boards! Thanks from France
Excellent video! I have been making all of those mistakes you covered. I can feel it's wrong, but haven't found a tutorial that really shows how to avoid those things.
This is a GREAT video. I have always wondered how you all do those turns- in real time they go so fast.
Best flip turn lessons online I have seen.....most appreciated!
So glad it was helpful! Happy swimming :)
Thank you for these tips. My friend recently got me into swimming and I love it. I've gone from looking like a total spaz to having enough confidence to try the flip turn for the very first time in my life. Fingers crossed.
That's awesome! Keep up the hard work and dedication, you got this!
Just today I was trying to learn to flip. And now you launched your video. Awesome
one of the best videos out there about filp turns. Thanks a lot
Flip turns are momentum driven. As you accelerate into the wall you transfer your linear momentum into angular momentum around an axis parallel to the wall. If done right the most efficient version of the flip turn doesn't include any hand movement to initiate the turn. You just keep your hands pointed in the opposite direction and immediately move to streamline as you are rotating over the axis.
Good job bro you're gonna nail this physics 1 exam 🫡
I mean, if I were to take rhe time to preach physics irt flip turns it would have to include resistance/drag, inertia, and of course the centripetal momentum to address turning one’s body around
@@R3DPandaLP so true, so true
That’s what she just explained
None of us go fast enough to hurt ourselves if we actually hit the wall. Thank you for that! I was truly afraid of hurting myself. I'm 60 and just learned the flip turn recently. This video will help me improve! Thank you.
That's pretty cool,! I'm 44 and learning to swim other techniques than breast stroke. Sorry don't know the English name for it yet 😅
😂😂👌👌
flipping too close can hurt a bit if you are a quick flipper by and you slam into the top if the gutter, until you get used to your timing.
Thank you. I'll be very careful. I do remember hitting my head doing the back float when i was very young and it hurt like the devil!
Thank you
Excelente explicación profesora, mil gracias
🙌
You are the best instructor! I have watched so many videos and your videos are the best.
I'm keeping doing these drills during my training. Slowly my flip-turns are coming up as expected. Thanks for sharing this!
That's awesome! Keep up the great work! :)
Clear explanation and demonstration.
You are literally the best instructor! I have watched so many videos on how you do the flip turn but none were so accurate like you..thank you 👏👏👏
Excellent class!!!😀
Thank you so much. I've been decades both pool and ocean swimming and I have yet to master this. Now, it's on my bucket list to finally master, and I will do it thanks to these drills!
Sounds like you've already got a great feel of the water! Good luck, you've got this :)
swimming in the ocean is nerve racking, rip current, waves, jelly fish, sting rays and sharks make it worrying.
I can do the flip, and worked out how to turn back round by using the wall and the Dolphin kick - thanks, you’ve improved my AdLib, thrashing about turn into something that looks like a pro!
❤ i tried this today, and it was a mess. i was all over the lane. i could do the flip, and my feet on the wall. its the whole pushing and turning (without twisting) in streamline. i will keep watching this and practicing, until my flip turns are olympic pool worthy :) i had better progress with my open turns, where i elbowed my brother and called my mother to explain to her what happened, and also to boast about how my streamline underwater pushes are advancing splendidly, to which i would think she would be proud of me :) ps - you are still the best teacher ever :)
It’s so clearly explained. Thanks!
The “bicep curl” was one of the best pieces of advice i have ever had in regards to flip turning!
I've been swimming with a club about a year and a half. I swam as a kid but only lessons. This video and particularly the first part about arm and hand position just clicked! And whilst they were very far from pretty, last night I managed my very first backstroke flip turn!!! Thank you so much, that was a real milestone, very happy 😂
That's awesome! Keep up the great work! :)
best video ever ! i have watched so many vdo about this and srly i learned nth until this
Thanks!
Thanks for pointing out the floor indicator. Will use that as a measuring point to begin flipping. ❤❤😊
Thanku so much ...i have never been able to get a perfect flip..but with this technique i have finally made it perfect..😊
