What really made so many of these shots possible was precision in communication between teammates like " *AAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!* "

I played Junior curling in Northern Ontario decades ago. We made it to the finals to represent at the Nationals. There is more to this game than meets the eye. The ice conditions dictate how much "broom" you have to give. That means where you place the broom for the shooters to aim at. It also depends on how fast you are throwing the rock. The ice conditions often change as the game progresses as well. I played at this one club where frost would force the people playing the first draw of the evening to throw "peel" weight in order to get the rocks into the house!! After about 2-3 ends the temperature would rise due to the people on the ice and it would be normal conditions the rest of the night. yeah these guys make shots that the average curler would have to attempt several times to even get close to these results.

Golf isn’t a sport. There is no direct contact with an opponent. Curling is a sport because there is direct contact. The stones are an extension of the player and can be hit by the other player. In golf this doesn’t count and the ball gets dropped.

My wife and I played curling in a mixed league for about five years. The best part was the drinking and socializing after the game.

What an amazing video! I love watching curling during winter Olympics and that was just so much fun to watch. Thanks for sharing these awesome moments.

I was in the 2nd row for #8. Shot brought us all to our feet.

this is so satisfying

What a beautiful sport. I loved watching it.

I just had a clinic with my coworkers this afternoon and it's so incredibly fun to do. Just the satisfaction of finally getting a Rock in the circle is worth all the while. I can only imagine how satisfying it is to play one of these amazing shots. Mesmerizing

Damn, so many insane shots, truly insane shots, God, curling is an amazing sport, I just love it!

Not many people on the Internet realize how much skill this game requires. Everyone thinks the sweepers are doing all the work, mostly because they get all the screen time. In truth, the sweepers make the stone go a little faster and have some influence on the stone's path, maybe 15% of the game. However, the person throwing the stone has to line it up just right, or no sweeper can make a remotely passable (much less actually good) shot out of it. Every time I play, the only time a stone doesn't do what its supposed to is because of a bad throw. It takes skill to throw a good shot. Then there's the skip (the person holding the broom at the far side), who has to precisely tell the thrower exactly where to aim, and how hard to throw the stone. He/she also has to know when exactly the sweepers have to sweep, and he/she has to effectively communicate this to the sweepers. These precision shots in this video are a result of careful planning and very precise execution, not some stroke of luck. Players who have years invested in this sport often can't do this well. I see why some uninformed people might think that it's not hard to play curling, but trying to throw just once WILL humble you, I would put money on it.

This sport is so amazing. At 1:06, the stone had almost stoped then it slided again :o

idk why people dont like this. this is an insane skill

Definitely inspiring shots. What is missing, though, is a note telling us whether the shot helps the team earn a win. Great shots by themselves are interesting, but great shots that lead to a win are definitely more enjoyable.

This is literally magic

Pretty sick actually.

Kept worrying the sweepers were going to trip and fall. Wonder how this could work in golf?

Do I care about curling? No Did I watch this entire 20 minute video? Yes, yes I did

I dont know abything about the game but i get the basic, but what are the rules with the kicking? Like once an opponents stone gets pushed off, are they just allowed to kick it out of the way? I saw a few where they did

Yesterday I played this game for the first time in my life. I love it. Spent five hours on the ice. The biggest issue is the applied force, it is very difficult to feel distance

Team only scores at end of round. Only the team with their stone nearest to the center gets score. They also count each matching stone that is closest for more points as long as the opposing color isn't between them. That's why you'll see them knocking the opponents stone away even if they are already on the bull.
