WICK AND ROLL
    See tick: The shooter rock hits a small portion of an object rock such that the shooter rolls/slides at a low angle to another place on the sheet.

WIDE
    See TURNED – OUT. A fault in the rock delivery sequence causing it to traverse a line outside the brush target line of sight.

  WIG WAG
    The motion a curler may give a rock at delivery in which the rock is partially rotated counter to the final release rotation. While it may give a certain flare to the curler’s style, I seriously doubt the benefit that may accrue. On the other hand, release is second only to proper slide out on the delivery line of sight in importance to hitting the brush, so any complication at this point can have serious consequences on curler success.

   WORLD CURLING ALLIANCE
    An independent voluntary worldwide association of people that are interested in promoting and improving all aspects to the game of curling.

   WRECKED SHOT
    See CRASH. Usually the unintentional striking of an object rock such that it ruins the intended shot.
