#22 - Sweden Removing Double Touch Rule For Handsetting
Is the double touch rule for handsetting needed in beach volleyball, or would it be better if "doubling" the ball was allowed? Well, we might all of the sudden get to know the answer to this with more certainty, because the Swedish volleyball and beach volleyball association has decided to run a one season experiment to remove the rule. In this episode I discuss the experiment, arguments and counterarguments, and much more quite deeply. Hopefully the episode also includes some stuff that may help individuals think about the process of learning to both handset and bumpset better in helpful ways.

#21 - ToppVolley Norway - An Inside Look with Leon Lauvland (Unique Volleyball School)
Already well known within Norway, but maybe popularized or at least brought to attention to the rest of the beach volleyball world by the Beach Volley Vikings video released a few years ago (https://youtu.be/tcPPemwQUL8?si=XKJlHYtRu1EZ2UOU), is the "Hogwarts of Volleyball" aka ToppVolley school in Sand, Norway. A number of weeks ago I happened to meet and play beach volleyball with Leon Saltbones Lauvland, a recent graduate from the very same school and an interesting guy overall (who had also partly worked for the school and has his own Youtube channel), so I proposed that we'd record a podcast episode as a bit of an "inside look" of what it's like going to probably the worlds most famous volleyball specific highschool. He agreed and let me pick his brains for a couple of hours, and here's the result. We talk about lots of topics in this episode of the Learn Beach Volleyball Fast podcast, what daily life is like at the school, how they get trained there, some of the philosophies of the school, injury prevention but also making the most out of injuries... As always we also of course talk some even more beach volleyball specific stuff, which this time was mostly about "recycling" a ball that has been set too close to a big opponent blocker, and playing well with different partners.There was probably more also that I don't remember right now! But overall I am happy with this episode, I think there will be something of value for almost any beach volleyball interested listener out there, so why not kickstart 2024 with some fresh perspectives on how one can think about becoming an even better player?! Comments and thoughts more than welcome as always!

#20 - Olympic Lessons, Smart Attacking, Longevity, and More with Björn Berg
In this episode I take a walk around the lake with 2 time Swedish beach volleyball Olympian Björn Berg, picking his brain about all sorts of things beach volleyball that I find interesting and helpful! Feel free to take a walk and listen at the same time, I can almost guarantee you'll learn a thing or two that you can apply to your own game in one way or another!Topics covered are: Collaboration with your playing partner, smart attacking (and what it is), sports psychology and the mental game (both as an individual and within the team), longevity (how to play the game at a high level for a long time), confidence and serve receive, and more!--------------------------------------------This same episode on Youtube (if you want to find the comments section!) : https://youtu.be/HnOHsNIpffk--------------------------------------------Björns Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/berg_beach/Björns sons Instagram (sorry Viggo you didn't get to join this interview, maybe one day I'll have to make it up with interviewing you??!) : https://www.instagram.com/viggoberg11/--------------------------------------------During the "smart attacking" part of the episode, Björn talked a fair bit about the power of being able to control the ball with one's wrist. I can't guarantee Björn would agree with everything I personally tend to teach about using the wrist, but if you want to dive deeper into the topic, here's at least one very well liked video that I have made about using the wrist when attacking: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bZd-UMM6is8--------------------------------------------Always get the latest updates, best insights and special opportunities before anyone else by signing up to the Learn Beach Volleyball Fast newsletter at: https://www.learnbeachvolleyballfast.com/subscribeLink to the Learn Beach Volleyball Fast Facebook community:https://www.facebook.com/groups/362021664252243/Also check out:http://www.learnbeachvolleyballfast.comhttps://www.instagram.com/learnbeachvolleyballfast/https://www.learnbeachvolleyballfast.com/podcast#BeachVolleyballPodcast#LearnSmarterNotSlower#LearnBeachVolleyballFast#LearnBeachVolleyballFastPodcast#BeachVolleyball#SandVolleyball
