      Teams in Europe are well- funded by their governments, so a lot of them look alike that. But your observation was true of the US skip Shuster for years. But he decided to change his diet and get into shape. He's noticeably more fit here than he was before. Not sure if it necessarily played into winning the gold here. Edin had an uncharacteristically off game here, and the US took advantage.

    woke up this morning and thought about funny sounding olympic sports like speed walking, got around to curling and found it to be not what I expected at all. This game has a very complex strategic approach and tactics that I cannot really relate to any other game. It seems from my first time watching to be a combination of a precision sport and some sort of twist to chess, where you create the board as you play. First time watching this sport, was fairly impressed.

    @4:40 as the two captains are down by the house (target) you can see them exchange pleasantries. Both these teams practiced and hung out together during the Olympics. "Hey, let's have some fun boys." "Good game, right?" "Good game!" If nothing else, this is why we need the Olympics. Baron de Coubertin was right.

      i hate to undercut your point, because the spirit of curling really does in my opinion embody the spirit of the olympics, but i am pretty sure the voices we hear at that time are the american team down at the other end of the ice getting ready to throw. they were pretty big underdogs, so i could see them having a "hey let's just go out there and enjoy ourselves" mindset.

  • @Lord_Baphomet_
    @Lord_Baphomet_ 2 роки тому +2

    Okay so the reason they are “brushing” the ice is to create liquid through friction. This causes the stone to speed up or turn depending on where you brush.

    • @WheatGrinding
      @WheatGrinding 2 роки тому

      Speed up, yes, but turning is interesting. Whether it curls more or less mostly depends on who's sweeping it, if you are sweeping against the curl it curls less, if you sweep *with* the curl (or at the very end once it's already moving) it'll curl more.

    I've watched a LOT of curling over the years. Not sure I've ever heard commentary quite this dramatic, though.
