How to manage toe tuck
Hello,
I’m a curler of 8 years, during that time I developed a very very deep toe tuck. My toe tuck used to be so low my slider knee would almost touch the ice, I am trying to raise it without fully getting rid of my tuck, as I have a longggg torso, flat footed is very akward for me. The impact of getting that low is starting to hurt my knee since I curl almost 5 times a week consistently. Which curlers have variations of the tuck that are less harmful on the knees, or do I attempt to ditch the tuck completely, i’m still a junior curler and don’t want to have to cut my curling career short cause I didn’t change my slide.
