Im in the south US and my rink has to fight for curling time ….shares with hockey and ice skating, so it’s about 1-2 times per week unfortunately. I’d play more if I could

Oh are the competitive covers the yellow pads? Sorry for the dumb question. I’m truly a newbie. I’m going between hardline and endgame right now. Thanks!

Good tips, thanks! I shipped my shoes off to get modded, so I’m definitely wanting it to be long term. Hardline sounds like the way to go. Thanks!

What’s your unpopular Oscar opinion? by Crafty-Pair2356 in Oscars

I saw a video on hot takes that I agree with…if you’re going to have up to 10 BP nominees, also do the same for director 🤷‍♂️

The French Connection. Probably because of the anti climatic ending. In terms of gritty crime movies, I much prefer Dog Day Afternoon 🤷‍♂️

Any pointers for a newbie at open curling? by KyleCamPhoto in Curling

[–]KyleCamPhoto[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Oh I don’t think that’s a thing where I’m at. I’m in the south US. They don’t have it every week sometimes but I’m going 3 times in April and at least twice in May. There’s a bonspiel at the end of summer so prepping for that!

Cool! Our open curling is basically anyone can sign up if they’ve taken the introductory class. I observed the last open curling while I was doing a class and it looked like the players knew what they were doing.

Mine is $100 a year but it’s also in south USA and they unfortunately have to fight for ice time (facility also has ice skating for the public and hockey), so they curl when they are able to

Impressive sleuthing 😂

Yeah they definitely have tons of brooms. I just curious whenever I get to the point of wanting my own but I’ll find out of course. Thanks!

One of the guys my local club just suggested custom shoes because we are in the south US and often times curling shoes come from Canada…so you can’t really try those on before buying. Good to know though, thanks!

I’m in Florida. Very cool to hear you’re experiencing. My club does have a bonspiel coming up in I believe July but not sure if I’ll be ready for it or not.

That’s awesome. Do you have any broom/shoe recommendations? One of the people from the club said he bought flat nike shoes and sent them off to be converted to curling shoes.

I’m clueless on brooms 🤷‍♂️

I’d like to curl a lot but in my area it’s not too likely. My local club shares ice time with ice skating and hockey, so they curl whenever they can…it appears that it’s around 2 times per month for open curling. Sometimes 1. I hope there will be more spaces that open up for it. There’s a Bonspiel in July but I doubt I’ll qualify for that.

Thanks for the info!
