Racing turn

Ari Sabtu ari tu ada kelas swimming. Pg2 lagi cikgu msg kata dia nak ajar kitaorg racing turn. sbb ari tu kitaorg ngada2 dok tanya camner yek yg org2 lawan tu pusing yek....cikgu kata tunggu jer bila kitoarg dah grad renang..tp agaknya dai tak sabar nak ajar kt kitaorg skill dia kot...hehehe so dia ajarlah kitaorg sabtu tu.

Nama betul dia adalah tumble turn. Mula2 cikgu ajar start renang dari blkg..sampai lah jadi ok...then suh buat, start dari blkg then pusing ke dpn...ulang2 dlm 10 kali sampai jadik..barulah dia ajar camner nak buat somersault dlm air..yg tu mmg susah...sakit hidung2 sbb asyik masuk air...sampai sudah cam senget jer badan...

Ni animation dia....

Yang ni step by step dia...

The turn is basically a somersault and twist. Here's what you need to do:

Swim towards the wall.

Forward somersault just before the wall.

Place your feet on the wall and stretch your arm out.

Push your feet hard on the wall and twist on to your front.

There are a number of different ways to practise the turn

Push away from the side and do a somersault.

Try swimming five strokes and then do a somersault.

Swim towards the wall and do a somersault, putting your feet on the wall as you go over.

Practice pushing away from the side underwater and streamlining - swimming flat and thin with one hand on top of the other. Add a leg kick and start to pull as you reach the surface.

Finally, put the whole thing together - swim, tumble, push off, streamline and swim.

Swim to the wall quickly.

Turn when you see the "T" on the bottom of the pool.

Tuck your head in tight.

Put your feet on the wall approximately 50cm below the surface.

Stretch your arms out before you push away from the wall.

Bak kata cikgu.............................Swimming with style....hahahahaha
