Under discussion: Transgenic curling technique/technology, curling books, curling sports medicine including the broader area of kinesiology, curling coaching, curling links, and ice technology.
  Handicapped curling is here now and is EASY (see wheelchair curling under "push/curlingstick").



Note: Right/dominant foot slide-out with two handed delivery and with the foot in the left hack-- right handed release. Since I no longer throw outturns, the left handed release originates from the right hack. IT IS LEGAL to throw leftee and rightee.


 BLACK plastic inline skating knee-protector available at sport shops. NOTE: The flat face and it has been surface sanded to remove small bumps.
CLICK on: KNEESLIDER
With this "6 rated" knee slider, you can easily slide to mid -ice if you also have a "10 rated" foot slider. The knee slider removes weight from the trailing extended leg/toe making the slide no-pain/ no-strain and very accurate. You can now deliver hundreds of rocks per day without conditioning. With no-strain, the improvement in delivery accuracy is enormous.

   Page 3 ICE TECHNOLOGY -- Your Questions

   Curling is much like the practice of medicine because it requires constant reeducation and reevaluation to maintain/improve proficiency and accuracy. The subtle difference is; however, the curler blames his mistakes on the ice technician while the doctor blames no one! He just buries his mistakes?

 Note the above photo demo of "START" push-out position: The no-strain hit the brush 90% Genuflect Delivery System. RIGHT FOOT (dominant) and LEFT KNEE Slide plus Two Handed Push Delivery. 60lb. children can put every rock in the house. Small women can hit like Martin. Now anyone can slide wall to wall!!

You are at the home of: Page 2 ILLEGAL BRUSHING Technique Revealed
    Why are brush makers STILL making the same 4' brush for 3' children as 6' men? Do they like
  to see an adult hunch over the rock while applying only 40% psi. as 80% is possible with the
  upright brushing stance with a 5'-6" brush handle? Oh! My aching back. Not so for me. I made 
my own brush --  5'-6". If the brush makers can't understand the market, then don't buy small shaft 
back breaking junk! Make your own. Take an old hair or sponge brush that has been thrown away and wrap/staple duffel wool fabric over the 6" head. Remove the 4' shaft and replace it with an oak "flag-pole" shaft available at Home Hardware. Now you have a rock controlling brush that can stop curl and INCREASE curl with minimal backbreaking labor input. I can brush 4 games in one day while applying 100+ lbs. to the brush HEAD in a 15 degree from vertical brushing stance.

Not curling as well as expected?
When all else fails, blame your poor performance on your skip.

Maybe, blame your coach.

CURLERS' LAMENT
My coach told me:

Perfection is the essence light.
Clouds filter out the rays to excellence.
Body and mind writhe, which to win the fight?
The radiance to succor is of skill or intelligence?


Frustration ebbs when I subscribe to creative.
Penetrating into my abyss, diffused rays to coordination.
Condensing life's fog, sensors transmitting, no longer sedated.
Contemplation hurts my head, now to retain this tenuous meditation!

"A curling game my be started anew but Life's terminality is inevitable.
Now, how can we maximize these few precious seconds given us before we take the "long slide?"
