A flip turn is a motor action due to a combination of the established competence matching features of postures and situational influences. In general, movements are organized at different cognitive levels including their sensory effects. Every movement is formed by cognitive units, called Basic Action Concepts. The purpose of this study is to elucidate the influence of sensory effects on the biomechanical outcome of the flip turn technique under two different conditions: regular and high tech full swim suit. Methods were biomechanical analysis for the flip turn, a questionnaire for examining the strength of sensory effects, and two sets for the structure dimension analysis-motorics. The results revealed a close connection between the cognitive representation of the sensory based effects of flip turn technique and their biomechanical structure.
