When I'm swimming I can do a front flip underwater and I'll be just fine, but if I try doing a backflip underwater my nose starts burning really badly and it really bothers me. Why does it do this and how can I prevent it from happening?

Try blowing bubbles out through your nose when you do it, it will push air out and prevent water from coming in.

Yes, blow air out of your nose. That's the right answer.

take a BIG breathe before you do it, then blow as hard as you can out of your nose...after a while of practicing you'll get better.
