Not being orthodox
As I mentioned a lot before. As a coach I always say what I think is right. That idea comes mainly by what I think is more worth it taking into account, risk and benefit. And also what I have seen that works. We all have favourite moves and skills that we do unconsciously, that is what we look for as coaches. Sometimes we look for variants of the moves. This is an example.
As a reminder, Follow this steps:
- Take a look at the video:
- Read and think about the analysis.
- Match the analysis and the video. Min 10:31
We start with Marti Casas (Reus Nº18) skating down the wall. Quickly Maxi Oruste (Reus Nº8) puts a block on him. Maxi does a block and roll, but the defense is too close to Marti so there is no clear pass line. Marti is being smart and he keeps skating towards7.
In this situation, Joan Salvat (Reus Nº7) who was at 7 skates out towards 3. Marti keeps skating and when the two of them get too close, Marti skates in. It looks that Marti is putting a block on Salvat, but this is not the case.
