The Freestyle Flip Turn

Here are some excellent videos on the Freestyle flip turn.

The approach: pointers on how to approach the wall before you flip turn. (By The Race Club)

The Flip (Race Club): Are the swimmer's arms straight the entire time he flips (watch at 2:07)?

The Breakout (after you flip turn): What is one of the most important things to do with your head on the breakout (Answer can be found after 0:39)?

Flip Variation: There is another way of doing a freestyle flip turn and you are more than welcome to learn this particular style, but ONLY AFTER you have mastered how to do a flip turn without relying on swirling your arms to flip (like this guy).
