Asham’s Rotator Sole Asham curling shoes are unique in that our soles are designed specifically for curling. Asham’s patented ROTATOR sole is just one of the latest innovations in our endless pursuit of the perfect sliding platform.

The ROTATOR’s removable sliding disks, attached to the shoe by way of Velcro®, provide the solution to solve your sliding woes.

The ROTATOR sole was designed to solve the challenges faced when using a typical curling shoe, specifically: drifting, reduced balance and stability and poor slider performance.

is is a winner!”

- Ray Turnbull, Prom

Eliminates Drifting & Increases the Life of Your Sliders

The sole of a shoe is longer than it is wide so the natural tendency of the foot when sliding is to go in the direction it is pointed. Circles have equal force on all areas and only 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 the Asham Rotator disk, just remove the slider, “rotate” it and put it back 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 from side-to-side and back-to-front, the ROTATOR’s sliding disks lay perfectly flat, providing unmatched stability and performance.

The disks extend beyond the width of a normal sole, further enhancing balance and stability.

Maximum Slider Performance

A variety of leading sliding materials are available, and the 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!

The ROTATOR sole is based on more than 10 years of R & D that includes testing by some of the world’s best curlers. It’s time to take advantage of the latest in technology and make the game just that much easier.

The ROTATOR sole is featured on a full line of Asham shoes, including: The New Ultra Lites, The SLAM, and The Competitor.

The Right Fit

The most important thing is that your shoe fits properly. Ensure your foot has enough room in the toe box. There should be about a half 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 shoe should not pinch or bind, especially across the arch or ball of your foot. Also, be sure to wear the same socks you curl in. This can make a huge difference in how the shoe fits.

Try on both shoes. Your feet may not be the same size. If you have any questions regarding our shoes please call us. Our goal is to find the Asham shoe that is right for you!

Asham Grooved Synthetic Pads When sweeping on frosty ice you will notice there is snow or frost around the outside edge of the brush pad. Obviously it is the edges picking up frost. This grooved pad is designed to have more edges to pick up more frost and will therefore be more effective on frosty ice.
