In their first paper 1, the authors point out that most theories to date have been based on the idea of a friction asymmetry between the leading and trailing halves (as seen in the direction of the motion) of the annulus. ...as the stone rotated, the asperities on the trailing edge encountered the scratches formed in the ice, and were guided by them, thereby leading to a curl in the correct direction.
