Passe levée. La rondelle placée légèrement devant le joueur, celui-ci exécute un mouvement rapide des poignets vers le haut et vers l'avant, permettant à la lame du bâton de s'élever rapidement de la glace. 1, record 2, French, - passe%20lev%C3%A9e
Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Il s'agit d'une courte passe qui s'élève juste assez pour passer par-dessus la lame d'un bâton ou le patin d'un adversaire; de ce fait, on la qualifie aussi de «nette». L'expression «passe sèche» fait allusion au passage dans les airs, «à sec» plutôt qu'à fleur de glace, et «passe chiquenaude» évoque la façon dont elle est exécutée, avec un tour rapide du poignet, rappelant le mouvement pour exécuter une chiquenaude. 5, record 2, French, - passe%20lev%C3%A9e
