It's a crazy story of the coaches Rasmus Jonsson and Anders Kristiansson - from Sweden of all places - theorising about ways to innovate the sport, and then scouting young talents to coach this method into from an early age. And years later, their pupils claim the Olympic gold. What a story.

If you want to read more about the new style here is an article about it.
