    I wore a kilt to a "funspiel" awhile ago. A lot of fun to curl in the kilt. I wouldn't recommend it for first time curlers though.[/QUOTE]

    those newbes to curling get so cold. I can't understand how. Of course I'm one to talk. The club's only been here for four years, all of which I've been there. Started when I was in sixth grade I think. Only got the kilt last year.

    Having grown up in central Canada, I was surrounded by curling rocks and hockey sticks. Hey, you have to do something with 7 months of winter
    I actually used to live beside Arnold Asham of Asham's curling supplies for years and years and was friends with his kids. Every year Arnie would build and ice rink in his back yard for curling/hockey/skating. My grandmother also played religiously. Yet I didn't even really try curling until 2 years ago. Great sport and a really fun time. The kilt is great fun to play in, but wear a knee pad if you are still learning and have a tendency to slide on your knee out of the hack.

    yeah- it's not exactly like that one, it's got a zipper and a slightly different pattern of stones, but it's pretty close. Those things are incredibly warm as well.

    My son has a similar one, but with a puppy dog on the back (he's 5), but man does he wear that thing, and it looks comfy and warm.
