Because my old curling thread got shut down. Shoot, y'all!
Continued quotes from my curling thread:
Oh, that is true, but I suppose we're not professional enough to do that.
That's bizarre. We have a little slip thing that we wear on our feet when we throw, but afterwards we take it off, unless you actually have curling shoes in which case you put something on your foot to prevent sliding around.
Oh, I don't blame you. I've never fallen, although since curling is popular with old people I've seen a great many falls in my day.
Continued quotes from my curling thread:
If you play at higher levels (I never id, but i know people that did), you need to let the skip know the weight so that the line can be properly judged (since the curl changes with weight).

A couple times a week for a couple winters. It was also an instructional thing and you had to wear a slider at all times on the ice.

I had problems moving down the ice with a slider and maintaining my balance while sweeping (I have terrible balance as it is).
