I just saw the announcement from USA Curling and, like many, am shocked by the glowing omission of team Peterson. Even more concerning than the probable retirement announcement is the fact that none of both Petersons, Taylor, or Cory (I know she’s still playing MD) are on other teams. Are they all retiring?! Taylor is a fantastic lead why not get her on another team?
Let me know if anyone knows anything or has any thoughts!
I have two questions about balance. One is more focused on at home training and the other is about on ice training.
Do any of you have tips of how to work on my balance at home or at the gym? I try to use the balance balls at the gym to work on overall balance but I’m not sure that actually helps anything. Do these skills at home/gym even translate to the balance I need on the ice?
What are your best tips for a new curler to truly start to feel comfortable sliding out of the hack? Several of our club members have very different thoughts on the concept of balance, but they all agree it’s one of, if not the, most important skill to learn.
Any advice helps!
