2 CURL YOUR BEST ASHAM S ROTATOR DISK SYSTEM (RDS ) Asham curling shoes are unique in that our soles are designed specifically for curling. Asham s patented RDS is just one of the latest innovations in our endless pursuit of the perfect sliding platform. The RDS removable sliding disks, attached to the shoe by way of Velcro, provide the solution to solve your sliding woes. The RDS was designed to solve the challenges faced when using a typical curling shoe, specifically: drifting, poor slider performance, reduced balance and stability. The RDS is based on more than 10 years of R & D that includes testing by some of the world s best curlers. It s time to take advantage of the latest in technology and make the game just that much easier. This RDS combined with the lightweight technology will bring your game to a whole new level! What a concept. This is a winner! - Ray Turnbull, Prominent Curling Analyst The RDS is featured on a full line of Asham shoes, including: The New Ultra Lites, The SLAM, and The Competitor. Eliminates Drifting & Increases the Life of Your Sliders The sole of a shoe is longer than it is wide so the natural tendency of the foot when sliding is to go in the direction it is pointed. Circles have equal force on all areas and only travel in the direction they are pushed, completely eliminating drifting from the delivery. It will now be easy to slide on the path. The grain in some sliding material, as well as worn, warped and scratched sliders cause drifting. With the Asham RDS disk, simply remove the slider, rotate it and put it back on the shoe until you find the straightest sliding path. This extends the life of your sliders. Enhances Balance and Stability Unlike most athletic soles that are curved from side-to-side and back-to-front, the RDS sliding disks lay perfectly flat, providing unmatched stability and performance. The disks extend beyond the width of a normal sole, further enhancing balance and stability. Maximum Slider Performance A variety of leading sliding materials are available and the removable disks can be changed on-the-fly, enabling curlers to perfectly match the sliding surface every time. Old, worn and damaged sliders are quickly replaced that can t be done with glues!

5 CURLING SHOES - EXTRAS Toe Dip The Toe Dip is a plastic coating applied to the trailing foot to reduce drag. Depending on how your trailing foot contacts the ice during delivery you may find the toe dip improves the feel and speed of your delivery. Asham s toe dip material is flexible and will not make the toe of your trailing foot too hard which can contribute to drifting. Stiff toe dips are available by special request. The Toe Dip is not easy to remove once it is applied ASHAM CAN CUSTOMIZE ANY SHOE! AND WE ARE THE BEST IN THE INDUSTRY! Convert any shoe with any slider and gripper combination. We have a fully functioning factory in Winnipeg and a very experienced staff, we guarantee our slider and gripper applications are better than the competition. Toe Wedge The Toe Wedge is a piece of Teflon material that is applied to the toe of the Rotator Sole for toe or tuck sliders. Not all toe or tuck sliders will require the Toe Wedge. Free of charge on the RDS. Lace Cover The Lace Cover is a Teflon material that is sewn to the tongue of your curling shoe to cover the laces to reduce drag on the trailing foot. Some Asham shoes such as the Slam and the Competitor have built in Lace Covers Hinge Slider The Hinge Slider is a split in the slider at about the halfway point of the sole to allow for bend. The Hinge Slider is good for tuck or toe sliders using 1/4 Teflon. Free of charge on shoes with full sliders. THE RIGHT FIT The most important thing is that your shoe fits properly. Ensure your foot has enough room in the toe box. There should be about a half inch between your toes and the end of the shoe. The shoe should be wide enough in the toe that your toes can move freely. Your heel should not slip, and the shoe should not pinch or bind, especially across the arch or ball of your foot. Also, be sure to wear the same socks you curl in. This can make a huge difference in how the shoe fits. Try on both shoes. Your feet may not be the same size. If you have any questions regarding our shoes please call us. Our goal is to find the Asham shoe that is right for you! ASHAM CURLING CATALOGUE 5
