This Is How Inventive Texas Hydro Curling Can Be

This ingenious video comes from Texas, where a group of colleagues are getting prepared for the next 2022 Olympic curling event using a pressure washer and a squeegee. Tanking into consideration the weather conditions in Texas and the props they are so inventively using, they called this sport "Hydro Curling". Look at those expert moves, look at them go!

"Here is a post-Olympic video of us practicing for the 2022 Winter Olympics! We called it Hydro curling. I posted this in several pressure washing groups that we belong to within a one day period. We've received over 200 reactions from other pressure washing companies throughout the world. It's like the Jamaican bobsledding team," they say.

For those less familiar with curling here is a brief explanation.

Curling is a sport in which players slide stones on a sheet of ice towards a target area. Two teams, each with four players, take turns sliding heavy, polished stones made of granite (and therefore very often called rocks) across the ice curling sheet towards the so called "house", which is a circular target marked on the ice. The goal is to collect the highest score for a game and teams score points for the stones coming closest to the center of the house at the end.

Now, the trajectory of the rock may be additionally influenced by two sweepers with brooms who accompany the stone as it slides down the sheet, the brooms changing the state of the ice in front of the stone, making it curl less, and decrease the friction that slows the rock down.

A great deal of strategy and teamwork, and also an amazing spirit, just like our heroes in the video!
