Hideomi Fukatsu Gives Blockers No Time to React

By the time the block starts to close, Japan’s hitter is already swinging. That’s what makes Hideomi Fukatsu’s setting so fun to watch. 🇯🇵

Watch how quickly the ball leaves his hands and how precisely he puts it in the hitter’s path, even when the first pass pulls him away from the net. Then watch the middle blocker: one step in the wrong direction can leave Japan’s hitter one-on-one.
