Video Tutorial: How to do an open turn

Inspired by this recent video for human swimmers, I bring you "How to do an open turn in three easy steps." Pool time is limited, so an efficient turn will let you get more laps in.

1. Swim towards the wall at a slight angle, extend a paw to the wall
2. Push your body parallel to the wall, moving along the wall several inches and lightly tap your front paw again
3. Push off with your back paw

Is Keaton available for lessons? I think Guinness might need to improve his efficiency in the water...

From what I hear, we'll need to start Guinness out in the bath tub.
