Kilted curling at one of our local Scottish Days in Estonia - a weekend of events around Burn's Night...

Looks great, Tomo. Our Scottish winters don't seem to be cold enough these days for much outdoor curling, ?Climate change.

As an occasional curler here in Scotland, it’s not unheard of to see some kilted curlers on certain occasions (indoors, as neloon notes!). And for an experienced curler taking a bit of care, it is less indecorous than you might think – though you certainly might be advised to avoid watching right from the house end of the sheet 
As the Estonian clip shows, though, for the less experience curler it is hard to retain your elegance in slipping over on the ice in a kilt!
