How swim like a vessel on water
MY GOSH!! For a girl who is learning to swim solely on CZcams instructions, this was the best one I have ever watched....and I've watched a ton! The best part as to why so you know going forward, is that you repeat the visual constantly...It is so helpful to not have to stop and rewind to see it again....visual repeating is great!
Awesome to hear! Happy Swimming!
Wow, as an instructor I've tried several ways watched many videos. This is the best. Especially liked jumping up an flipping and use of the kick boards. One thing I would find helpful when to time the last breath before flip. I usually I use the T but it can depend on the speed of the swimmer. What do you suggest?
@@JS-zr6qf Happy Swimming :) You should flip no closer than 1-arms length from the wall. If you're floating at the surface (not moving) with one arm up and finger tips at the wall, this is where you should be flipping. The faster you move, the further away from the wall you need to be. A very faster swimmer an initiate the flip 2-3 meters from the wall and carry momentum into the turn so they're flipping at the right spot. The more you practice, the better you get.
Mr Ksebati is da best
No doubt about it Traci, this is definitely the "go to" swim channel!
Hello, Iâm 47, plump, not super fit but I LOVE swimming. Iâve wanted to learn how to do tumble turns (as we call them in England) for years. Watched this video, went for a swim today and tumble-turned every length! I felt like a frickinâ superhero! Thank you so much!
Great job! That's amazing, keep up the hard work :)
This guy gives the most detailed explanations. You're amazing
Glad you enjoyed it! Happy Swimming!
He certainly does, he's great.
Definitely!
Flip turns were the reason I quit swim team in high school! Now I'm going to master it for real, 10 years later
I must say I also didnât know how to do it, but I just use open turns everytime
Nice! Just keep swimmingđ
Me too, but 30 years later. This has been quite helpful

I've been stagnating for so long on this flip turn. This is extremely well explained. I will put into practice right away and I'm sure I'll see the improvements soon. Thanks a lot
There we go! That's great to hear! Happy swimming :)
This really breaks it down and makes more sense. Can't wait to try it out. Thanks, Faris!
YES! Finally some real help - especially the repeated visuals and instructions. Steps are clear, drills are clear, tips are clear. My problem is going to be that I've been doing flip turns wrong for so long... I see LOTS of drills in my future. Thank you - I know I'll watch this over and over.
Glad to help, Mary! Keep up the hard work - drills are so important for all skills, levels, and ages :)
Best flip turn video out there. Wish I had watched something like this when I was learning flip turns. It's so well broken down.
Johan GuzmĂĄn get time
Thanks Johan! Glad you liked it! Check out our blog for more: myswimpro.com/blog/
Outstanding break down. I canât wait to try it out. - John (age 71)
Sir, May I ask why the age announcement?
â@@muhammadshafeeq8779to give encouragement to a 38 year old like me that I can do flips too. đ
what did you say
This was fantastic. So well taught.
I can see why we have many talented athletes. Your detailed step by step instructions make it easy to remember, execute and improve even at 77.
Thank you so much, James! Happy swimming!
So much useful info in just 16 minutes! Very organized. Great job.
Glad you enjoyed! Happy swimming!
Ohhh this (especially the first exercise) makes a lot of sense!!!
Iâm so excited to practice my flip turns with this video. Excited and it also feels a little daunting at the same time. I swam competitively from the age of 7-14, and now Iâm 28. I took a 13 year hiatusâŠ..so Iâm doing a lot of fine tuning of my skills right now! All about patience.
That's a great mindset, Natalia! You've got this - happy swimming :)
I'm in a similar situation! I wish I never stopped swimming, however, it seems like the techniques have changed a lot since my teens. So it's interesting trying all these tips out and finding that I've still got my swim legs, I just need my lungs to catch up :)
I initially used a swim noodle, grab each end of the noodle with each hand pretend you are jumping over the noodle-like jump rope. This is how I started and in no time I was flipping. I then put the noodle aside and pretended to do the same thing only without the noodle. Also, I had to learn to continue breaking out during the flip this stop the water from getting up my nose. This was a big tip from my lifeguard.
Breaking out?
@ Tiny Tim
Pretty sure he meant 'breathing out'
(darn auto correct right?)
This is by far the best video I've seen on flip turns. Thank you!
This may be the best instructional video Iâve ever seen about any topic anytime anywhere on CZcams. Incredibly well done!
Finally tried this today and started doing flip turns! Thanks for the clear instructions. Definitely helping endurance already as I was always taking breaks at the wall out of habit.
So glad to hear that Gabriel! Keep up the good work đȘ
Exellent. You got me motivated to practice and learn. Thx
This is great. Doing backstroke flip turns has massively helped me. I used to do freestyle turns where my feet found the wall AFTER I'd turned. Doing backstroke flips helped me land my feet better
Great video, very helpful! Thank you!
I learned how to do these with my Coach last week and wish I had seen this before. Always the best explantions on this channel.đ
Great to hear!
Awesome content! You encouraged me to try this out. Thank you so much!!!
This is so great ! I feel some confidence to try this. The thorough teaching helps my brain to feel at ease , things make sense.
I love Whiteboard Wednesday, always learn so much.
Happy Swimming!
Best instruction video about this subject of all I seen up to date! đđđ»
Very nicely explained with examples and also drills to practice.
Water up my nose is the worst lol
Try humming as you flip
@@nolans11you just have to exhale a little through your nose
Dood with a cheese agreed, but, as a beginner, humming will work wonders.
Excelent video, I like all the exercises and tips! I do flip turns but I think I turn face down too quickly, actually I think I turn to my left side at the exact moment of reaching the wall, this will help me a lot, thank you and have a nice swimming!.
Thanks Teresa! I'd recommend paying attention to the black 'T' on the bottom of the pool. Once you start noticing trends of where your body needs to be in order to have enough space to flip, you can set a marker with that black 'T' and use that as your visual marker. Have a great swim!
Great vid... thanks for explaining... I practice this most days...
Surprisingly, the 1st time I tried a flip-it was perfect! đ So glad you shared this in IG. Think I might know now what to do for the next time I think of this. Thank you so much!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for generously sharing your knowledge!â€
Thanks so much! This is for sure the best explanation on youtube.
Glad to hear it!

Thanks for mentioning the breathing and humming! No one does that in their videos.
Great explanation! I tried and applied the techniques....Oh Gosh! it works! Now I enjoy swimming. Thanks
Iâve been really wanting to learn how to do this but, I just didnât know how far away from the wall I had to be. This helped a lot! Thank you!
You've got this! Glad to help!

You've got this, hands down! Happy swimming :)
There's nothing like an 'old school' whiteboard to reinforce the acquisition of a skill, especially for 'visual' learners. Nice one. I'll be trying this out ASAP.

Glad it was helpful! Happy swimming!
The hardest part is having enough air after pushing off the wall. Its very hard for me, and I find myself needing to breath as soon as possible
Abdul skdja repetition and practice Focusing on not breathing in your first stroke will help over time you just need to train your lungs
the same problem for me
Me 3. Even when I was in my best condition, (50 yrs ago, when I was a HS distance swimmer), I had to do open turns. Maybe I blow out too much air during the flip?
A good drill I read somewhere else is to do 4 strokes before the flip and afterwards 4 strokes without breathing. So calmly do the whole thing, focusing on holding your breath primarily. It is extra hard at first, so you can start with 2 stokres/flip/2 strokes and move towards 4/flip/4.
Helped me at least, as I also struggled with lack of air!
@@joequillun7790 This is what was happening with me. I was forcing the air out. The advice here to do a light 'hum' really helps.
WOW!!! THANK YOU, (ALL), FOR THESE AWESOME DEMONSTRATIONS, BREAKDOWNS, ANE EXPLANATIONS OF THESE VITAL SWIMMING SKILLS!!! YOU'RE REALLY HELPING US "ROOKIES" TO IMPROVE, EVERY TIME WE ENTER THE WATER!!! ....MUCH APPRECIATED!!!....
We're so happy to help! Happy swimming! :)
Well done. Very nice video.
Thank you so much!!
great video really well explained, can't wait to try it.
Thank you Barry! Let us know how it goes!
this is the best swimm channel...
thank you :) such an excellent white board lesson. its almost as if the ai bot was watching me flail in the pool today as i attempted to do my turns, then pulled this video up for me and had it waiting for me to watch. i guess you're actually trying to help me out with swimming, and not trying to lock me down in some room, HAL :)
This is great. Hope to learn this soon. Brilliant coaching.
You can do it! Happy swimming!
Thanks really appreciate the info.
Glad you enjoyed it! Happy Swimming!

Ive recently joined masters swimming after many years of not doing competitive swimming
My tumble turns really need some help
Best tutorial on turns ive seen
Cheersđđđââïž
Happy Swimming!
Thank you! That was really helpful!
Glad we could help! Happy swimming :)
Thank you. I used this to help me pass a swim test.
Very good instructions
I need to learn how to do this as stopping every 25m really breaks my momentum. When I swim in the ocean I'm able to establish a good rhythm and can go much further as a result.
Give it a try at your next pool workout! Happy swimming :)
thank you for this useful informatoin
Great video man!
Appreciate it! Hope you can take your flip turn to the next level - happy swimming :)
