VS Curling

I tried to play curling for the time. It was a very funny sport.

After the finishing of the service of a skate rink in Sagamihara city, the school of curling started. I was a totally unmature player, but veteran players taught me the sport very kindly.
Before trying the sport, I had thought it was not difficult. But, the reality was different. I could deeply understand our action on the ice is utterly different from the non-iced ground.

Curling uses 20 kg stones. It's very heavy, but fortunately we don't have to fell the weight to move the stones because the friction on the ice is zero. However, throwing the stones needs our power to some extent. In addition, it is difficult to keep our body balance on the ice to move the stones. If you try it, you must understand soon the muscle you use on the ice is different from the soil. That't why now I have muscle ache now.

Anywho, Curling was a funny sport. I enjoyed it. One team is composed of four people. One is a thrower. Another is a director. And, other two are cleaners of the ice.
I think the most difficult job is the cleaning. Actually, I couldn't try it. Because, we don't know how to clean well. And, sometimes, it's difficult for corking beginners. Because, we have to keep our body balance with the moving stone on the ice.
So, this time, I could only throw the stones.

I heated that curling is very similar to golf. Compared with the exercise or training, the game is better for increasing our level. Maybe, I should try to join the tournament of Curling soon.
