Venu3 swimmers - questions - reading display while flip turns

Hey Swimmers
I have recently purchased the Venu3 and used it a few times swimming. I overall like it very much for swimming and find it pretty accurate for recording my laps provided I do a good tumble and glide when I push off wall. 

But I am having issues reading the watch face when I flip turn... the display is very dim and is hard to read, so I need to pause, wait for display to illiminate all while doing a tumble and losing time. So how do other swimmers do this please. I have tried various display settings, weird wrist gestures, tapping watch face but watch face is always dim as I do the turn.

Many thanks
