A tumble turn, also known as a flip turn, is basically a half somersault underwater. The swimmer swims to the wall (how close is their own preference, but shorter people tend to get closer), begins their somersault in front of the wall, and when their feet hit the wall, they push off on their side as hard as they can. then after a few dolphin kicks they resurface and keep swimming.

How where mining towns different from Mormon towns?

Mining towns were different than Mormon towns mostly because mining towns were focused on getting rich and mining, and Mormon towns were focused on religion rather than money. Mining towns were more 'rough and tumble' or 'wild west' than Mormon towns, which were more peaceful and civilized and had a lot more women and children.
