"New Age" Rotator Sole

The foot is longer than it is wide. Obviously for flatfoots turning the foot outward during delivery would tend to cause a drift in the direction the foot is turned. Also sliding up and down the ice between throws and during practice with the foot pointing forward, creates tiny scratches lengthways on the slider. The material from the scratches forms a small ridge along the edge of the scratch. Again turning the foot outward during delivery would cause a drift. Players do adjust and compensate for this drift.

Over the past 5 years the Asham research and development team have been working on this unique problem and have engineered a shoe with two patented circles on the sole. The circumference of a circle has equal resistance on all sides and therefore, has a tendency to slide straight. In addition, we have attached these circles with Velcro in order to solve the second problem. When the slider becomes scratched after use it can easily be turned and positioned to produce the straightest sliding path.

The circles have also been designed larger than the sole with stabilizing bars from the outer unit sole supporting the full circumference of the sliding circles thus producing the most stable straight sliding shoe the world has ever seen.

Furthermore, this new invention is absolutely wonderful for our customers all over the world as they can now visit any of our outlets or Asham Dealers and custom make their own shoes in the store regardless if they are right or left handed, flat foot, toe, or tuck slide, and you can use our hard chromed stainless steel, thick Teflon, medium Teflon, regular Teflon or red brick with a simple switch of a disk on our new Velcro sole.

This ingenious invention by Asham will again revolutionize the market. "If you are considering buying new curling shoes you MUST at least consider the rotator sole" says world renowned curling entrepreneur Arnold Asham "because if you don't you may be looking at it again a year or two down the road, because there is no doubt in my mind it is the sole of the future".
