TURNS

1)Open Turn

2)Back-flip Turn or One handed open turn

3)Open Turn

In any individual medley (IM) you do three turns. After the butterfly you do an open turn and switch to backstroke. An open turn is when both hands touch the wall and then grab the wall and switch directions. There are two turns that you can do after the backstroke. You can either do a one handed open turn, or a back-flip turn. A back-flip turn is where you touch the wall and then use your hand to flip you around in the water and then push off to breaststroke. After the breaststroke you just do another open turn like the fly to back turn.
