GuaranteedCURL YOUR BESTAsham’s Rotator Disk System (RDS™)The RDS™ is unique in that our soles are designed specifically for curling to solve the challenges faced when using atypical curling shoe, specifically drifting, poor slider performance, reduced balance and stability.
Asham’s patented RDS™ is just one of the many innovations in our endless pursuit of the perfect sliding platform. Thissole is based on more than 10 years of R & D that includes testing by some of the world’s best curlers. And we didn’t
stop there, we have significantly reduced the weight of the sole making it the lightest sole, available on the market.
The RDS™ is a sole that allows the disks to attach by Velcro®, providing the wearer the opportunity to upgrade,
replace and customize your sliding platform quickly and easily. No more sending shoes in to have the slider or gripper
replaced when worn or when you are ready to upgrade to a quicker slider. Simply order new disks and pop them on
your shoe and you are ready to hit the ice again. If you are drifting during delivery, simply remove your disk and rotate
it until you find the straightest sliding path.
This RDS™ has stood the test of time and is still the best sliding platform available on the market. All four 2019-2020
Canadian National Champions (men’s, women’s, junior men’s, junior women’s) wear the RDS™, both junior teams went
on to become the 2020 World Junior Curling Champions.

Eliminates Drifting & Increases theLife of Your Sliders
 The sole of a shoe is longer than it is wide so the naturaltendency of the foot when sliding is to go in the direction
it is pointed. Circles have equal force on all areas andonly 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 theRDS™, simply remove the slider, “rotate” it and put itback 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 fromside-to-side and back-to-front, the RDS™ sliding
disks lay perfectly flat, providing unmatched stabilityand performance.
 The disks extend beyond the width of a normal sole,further enhancing balance and stability.

Maximum Slider Performance

The RDS™ is featured on a fullline of Asham shoes2

 A variety of leading sliding materials are available andthe 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!

CURLING SHOE CUSTOMIZATIONASHAM CAN CUSTOMIZE ANY SHOE!
Did you know Asham is the industry leader in curling shoe customizations? We used to make all our curling shoes
right from scratch in our factory. We still have a fully functioning factory and still make all our own sliding disks, slip-on
sliders and slider applications in our factory in Winnipeg. When it comes to curling shoes, we can do anything! We canmake any shoe with any combination of our sliding materials. Below are just some of the customizations you can add
to your shoe.

Toe Wedge

The Toe Wedge isa piece of Teflon®
that is applied
to the toe of theRDS™ for extreme
toe or tuck sliders.
Not all toe or tucksliders will requirethe Toe Wedge.

Toe Dip

The Toe Dip is a plastic
coating applied to thetrailing foot to reduce drag.
Depending on how yourtrailing foot contacts the ice
you may find the toe dip
improves the feel and speedof your delivery. Our toe dip
material is flexible and will
not make the trailing foothard, which can contributeto drifting. Stiff toe dip isavailable by request. Toe
dip is not easy to remove
once dipped.

Hinge

The Hinge is a split in theslider at about the halfway
point of the slider to allow
for bend. The hinge is goodfor tuck or toe sliders using
1/4” Teflon®.

THE RIGHT FIT FOR YOU

It is very important that your shoes fit properly. Ensure your foot has enough room in the toe box.
There should be about half an 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 shoeshould not pinch or bind, especially across the arch or ball of your foot. When shoe shopping, besure to wear the same socks you curl in. This can make a huge difference in how a shoe fit. Try on
both shoes, your feet may not be the same size. Feel free to contact us; we will help you find theAsham shoe that is the right fit for you!

NEW PRODUCTUltra Force Broom#9261182

The Ultra Force Brush maximizes sweeping effectivenessand efficiency. The Ultra Force head is molded with
polypropylene. The mold design is reinforced so rigidity of
the head occurs when pressure is applied. The firm headplaces equal pressure on all areas of the pad. The pivoton the head is made of high-grade steel with a machine
threaded screw. The steel connecting rod is molded into
the head and runs from the front edge to the back edge.
This direction gives the sweeper more advantage inapplying equal force to the forward and back brush stroke.
The pad attaches to the head by Velcro® making for quick
replacement. The head measures 20.3 cm long and 8.2
cm wide. This size allows sweepers to brush close to therock. The head is light weight at only 156 grams. The pad
is made of Cordura fabric, Velcro® and foam. The Cordura
nylon is long wearing and will give you efficient sweeping
for lots of games. The foam is firm in density. The stiffness
allows the curler to polish the top of the pebble. The foam
is low profile and water resistant. If you are a competition
curler, we have an approved World Curling Federation pad
to fit your needs.
