Mastering the flip turn 📚 🏊🏻‍♂️ The approach to the wall and going under the wave after a flip turn. This builds on the physics of drag (especially wave drag) and why elite swimmers prioritize depth for faster, cleaner underwater phases. • Research (e.g., towing studies by Lyttle et al.) shows drag is significantly lower at ~0.4m underwater compared to 0.2m or surface levels at push-off speeds. At the surface or very shallow, wave drag can account for 50% of total resistance! • Newton's Third
