Curling...Southern California Style

WWho We Are

The 8bit Sliders are a bunch of video game developers who work at Insomniac Games. They've been wanting to get into Curling for quite a while and when a "Learn To Curl" clinic took place in July of 2012, the team was formed! After learning the fundamentals, the 8bit Sliders became members of the world famous, Hollywood Curling Club and participated in the Fall 2012 league. Our lineup for 2013 is:

Chris Olander - SKIP

Dwight Okahara - VICE

Herschell Bailey - SECOND

Jeremy Hall - FIRST

Dave Nazario - FIRST

WDIY Curling Shoes

Shortly after we got on the ice, it became apparent that shoes were going to play a part in our near future. We had a DIY Curling Shoe night and learned a lot! Here is what we figured out and hope that it will help you if you decide to make your own shoes too! Click here to see how...
