Ok. Since I began swimming (maybe 2 months) I determined to get better at it. Once of my weak points is the turn around at the end. I SUCK at it. I talked to a fellow at the pool who actually teaches swimming...got pointers..I'm working at it but I still SUCK at it. I have no doubt that whatever it is I'm doing looks laughable from the surface. I often do so poorly that I end up just standing up after an attempt, pointing myself in the right direction and taking off again. Sheesh.

Anyway..is it just me? Or is the flip at the end a bitch to master?
