Fact of the week: Flip turns are not just a more efficient way to transition from one direction to another. Flip turns also transfer momentum/speed. If a swimmer enters the turn fast and executes the turn properly, the swimmer can carry much of that speed to the next leg of the swim. 
 
Have a wonderful weekend!
