Curlers wear specialty shoes, including one shoe with a strip ofteflon on its sole to create a smooth surface (known as a slider).Right-handed curlers wear the slider on their left foot, whileleft-handers wear it on their right foot.
The other shoe has a thin layer of rubber on its sole to provide traction on the ice.
Circular in shape and weighs between 38 and 44 pounds with a maximum allowable circumference of 36 inches.
Handle of the rock is bolted to the stone.
When the rock is thrown with the right hand, clockwise rotationis called an "in-turn", while counter-clockwise rotation is referred toas an "out-turn".
The opposite applies when the rock is thrown by a left-handed curler.
