Air-Hover Curling Game
Safety and Set-Up Instructions
Includes:
- 1 Curling mat
- 6 Curling stones (3 yellow, 3 red)
- 1 Sheet of stickers for decorating curling stones
Set – Up:
To flatten the curling mat for play, unbox, unroll, and reroll the mat in the
opposite direction for 5 to 10 minutes. Alternately, lay the curling mat flat
printed side up, and place small weights at each end until the mat rests flat
unassisted.
Each curling stone requires 4M batteries (not included) and is powered by an
on-off switch found on the bottom of the stone.
Curling Terms:
The Skip is the captain of the team, and usually the best player.
- Curling Zone uses electronic air power instead of the Brooms traditionally used to sweep and polish the ice surface in the path of the stones.
- The Hammer is the last stone thrown, usually by the Skip.
- A Burning Rock is when a foot touches a stone and disqualifies the stone.
Instructions:
Curling is a game of strategy and coordination known and loved worldwide as a competitive winter sport played on ice. HearthSong has created a challenging indoor set for both kids and adults, designed with air-hover curling stones and a substantial mat made of polypropylene. A slight texture in the fabric mimics the standard pebbled ice that causes the stones to “curl” along the surface. After the play, clean the curling mat with a dry brush and store it with curling stones in the storage box provided.
Traditionally, two teams of four players take turns sending one stone at a time along the surface of the ice, with the goal of getting the stones to stop as close as possible to the very center of the circle, or the Button. To score, the stone must stop somewhere in the House (the outer circle), and be as near as possible to The Button. A stone is disqualified if it moves outside the range of play, or rolls beyond the House.
