It appears that you need to go through the Set-Up lesson again. Fear not, repetition is key!
You’ve missed several questions. Spend some time going back through the Set-Up lessons and try again!
Not bad! However, I think you would benefit from going through the Set-Up lessons again.
Not too shabby! You’re probably ready to move on to the next lesson, but if you want to truly master the curling delivery, you should complete the Set-Up phase again.
Great work! I think you are ready to move from the Set-Up phase to the Pull-Back phase. If you missed any questions though, look them over and figure out why you got it wrong.
