Russian Konstantin Kozhanov combined his love for hockey with his love for wake surfing, taking his entire goalie kit onto the water for a little practice.
Kozhanov has since retired his hockey career, but he still throws his goalie equipment on from time to time. One look at his social media shows that he’s turned his focus a bit mor towards wake surfing lately.
Combining wake surfing with goal tending is certainly an interesting way to train. Maybe the combination of balance and focus needed to catch pucks on the water could translate onto the ice, but it doesn’t seem likely that this will become a popular training method for the world’s top goalies.
He also combined his goal tending skills with some snowboarding this past winter, cruising down the slopes in his full kit with a stick included.
