NEW IN THE PROSHOP ... BOOMERANG BROOM FROM ASHAM!!

You may be asking, "What the ?" ...

New from Asham curling, the Boomerang brush is here!

Here's Arnold Asham's explanation:

"The revolutionary pad allows the sweeper to get closer to the rock and moves the dirt to the sides. The front of the boomerang pad is the same as the back so the broom can actually fit together with the other sweeper."

I have been waiting to see one of these brooms for two seasons, ever since they were first advertised, and I must say ... they are interesting. Whether or not they will allow the average, club curler to get closer to the rock remains to be seen; I think it will.  However, I really like two things about it: dimpled pad face (for trapping debris better) and the wings (to help direct debris away from the rock path).

And, it never hurts that the handle is one of Asham's lightest, carbon fibre offerings ... nice broom!

Prediction ... we will sell a bunch ... if Asham can keep the supply coming.

Drop by the proshop and give one a lift ... if the office is closed, check out the Rolling Proshop in the lounge.  I have left a new Boomerang brush there for inspection.

Thanks to Asham, and all the curling companies, for keeping the equipment technology interesting!!
