Sea Hunt….

Learned to dive in 1971. Heard many times back then about the Mike Nelson Fip. My instructor did one from the side of the pool, front flip into water.

Does anyone know what episode of Sea Hunt where Mike does the front flip into the water?
Thanks!

I think there were several episodes with a front flip entry starting around season 3

Try season 3 episode 25 “Blind Spot” I believe there was a good one

Jimperdway,
Thanks for responding! I remember seeing it as a kid, but can’t recall wi
Which episodes.
Thanks!

My dad (coincidentally also certified in ‘71) used to watch them as a kid and would mention really wanting to see it again, but didn’t know how as they weren’t readily available at the time (now most are on YouTube). I happened to find him a ‘best of season 1’ in some discount dvd bin. A few years later I popped that disc in to check it out, and I became hooked and subsequently bought the full dvd set. Ultimately that show led me here!

If you come across any good flips or notable entries please add it to this thread. I’ll do the same

If I find any “Mike Nelson Flip” episodes I will post them. I have the first couple seasons, but have yet to watch them.
Used to run home from school to catch the show.
