My favorite curlers are about to play in their first tournament for the 2022-2023 season in ~25 hours. #BadenMasters will have #livestream on YouTube (huzzah!) and I’m stoked that the camera for sheets 3&4 will have both my Icevengers (Team Edin) and my Adings. I have the stream link saved and the notification bell on already: https://youtu.be/PeQRdIud0mM . . I’ve been holding off on sharing pics of this publicly, but some of you may have already seen one of these pics on my IG story. It was hot AF but I couldn’t resist and just had to try on my new @teamtotzek jacket from @foxglide Excited to actually wear it during curling sometime this season. Looking forward to seeing how the new Team Totzek lineup works out w/ Bobby in for older bro Josh at second & Klaudius at vice. . . 🥌❤️🇩🇪🥌❤️🇩🇪🥌❤️🇩🇪🥌❤️🇩🇪 #TeamTotzek #TeamGermany #SixtenTotzek #KlaudiusHarsch #MagnusSutor #DominikGreindl #Deutschland #curling #wintersports #TeamD #Germans #Germany #TeamDeutschland #HardlineNation #Foxglide #sweepingbeast #summer #sporthilfe #AteLovesHerAdings #teamnosleep 🥌❤️🇩🇪🥌❤️🇩🇪🥌❤️🇩🇪🥌❤️🇩🇪 https://www.instagram.com/p/ChZFX7Lu0gl/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

FoxFree High-Pressure Drilling Lubricant For OilField Applications
Drilling penetration speeds increased by 200% – 400% & thermally stable to >400°FFoxFree is a special high temperature, high-pressure Drilling Lubricant For OilField Applications that are designed off patented technology to reduce torque and drag in the water and oil-based drilling mud systems. FoxFree is perfectly complimented by using our FoxGlide friction reducer when used in tandem, to reduce drilling time as well as eliminate problems like differential sticking and bit balling.FoxFree is a highly complex drilling fluid lubricant designed specifically to speed drilling by reducing torque and lubricating at the high compressive point of the drill bit to formation contact. It does so by lowering surface tension at the interfacial point of force developed between the drill bit and the formation. Capillary forces are controlled for optimum penetration by allowing lubrication surface-active agents and lubricant oils to concur on the substrate. Unlike other lubricants that simply apply the capillary forces of repulsion to lower the entropic repulsion forces, FoxFree establishes a lubrication regime across the complete project by employing unique surfactant molecules that diffuse through the oil in water emulsion to become absorbed by the substrate in order to lower the surface potential. At these shorter interaction times, of relevance to tribology, oil capillary junctions and islands of the adsorbed surfactants coexist on the substrate reducing torque and speeding penetration. FoxFree works well in sandstone, shale, dolomite, limestone, basically, all drilling formations as its torque reducing qualities will prove out immediately upon application. When applied on high compressive strength cement drill outs, penetration speeds are increased by 200 – 400% while avoiding bit failure. The product mitigates drill bit balling and adhesion while yielding a cleaner, more stable drilling regimen. The product is thermally stable to >400°F and is a non-regulated material that can be easily shipped, handled, and stored.Composition:FoxFree is a proprietary blend of non-polluting surfactants. It is non-flammable, improving worksite safety and is biodegradable. FoxFree is used as a drilling fluid or mud additive.
FoxFree Torque Reducing Compound Benefits:
Understudies against many competing products FoxFree outperformed comparable products by 1500psi
The lubricity of drilling muds is improved upon application
It reduces friction between all of the components downhole.
Torque and Drag are common with operations in directional and crooked holes. FoxFree can reduce and minimize the torque and friction
Outstanding, highly-effective drilling lubricant.
Rapidly disperses into the mud system for penetration to the drill bit-formation interface.
The concentrated product reduces logistics costs.
Mitigates adhesion and bit balling.
Compatible with other chemistries present.
Environmentally safe; USDOT Non-regulated.
Thermally stable downhole (>400°F) in drilling & completion environments.
Penetration speeds are increased by 200 – 400% while avoiding bit failure
Bit Balling Treatment
Aids in stopping bit balling. Prevents mud and scale build-up by forming a protective barrier around the drilling bit. As a result, drill bits and drill collars are preserved and noticeably more productive when FoxFree FR  is present in the drilling mud.Application:FoxFree should begin being applied shortly after spudding in order to avoid drill bit wear and torque at the onset of drilling. The optimum amount of FoxFree in most applications will require mixing 0.5 (two quarts) to 1.5 gallons (six quarts) per 5  barrels of aqueous or oil-based drilling mud fluid present. The product can be added to a pill or sweeping fashion depending on needs and conditions.Source:

I FINALLY have a @scottish_curling uniform to add to my curling closet thanks to the Hollywood Summer Blockbuster Bonspiel silent auction. When it was confirmed that the @cr1ppa & @oggelit jerseys were NOT part of the silent auction, I pivoted to a couple of #Scottish and #American items. I got priced out of the Mouat & Peterson jerseys, and I was never bidding for the signed @teamniklasedin rock - it was at $600 when I got there Saturday afternoon. I’m just gonna buy a rock handle & ask my Icevengers to sign it the next time I see them, whenever that is. Super stoked to now be the owner of a #DavidMurdoch jacket! It’s the first #Foxglide uniform I have too - I only have their face masks (and the uniforms I did order are in progress). Excited to get coach to sign this next time I see him. Now I’ll have something to cheer on Scotland in the future 😜 . . In dealing w/ post-concussion syndrome one of the symptoms I’ve been experiencing has to do w/ jumbling my words - I’m exhibiting dyslexia when typing/writing and butchering words when I speak. I have to purposely try to talk slower especially on multi-syllabic words in an effort to communicate more clearly. The last thing I need is to give more people more reason to think I’m stupid or incompetent. Plenty of those already. The one I tend to butcher the most is MISCONCEPTION, partly because I’ve been saying it so much during the month of June, probably more than I have my entire life. I have to say it in trying to explain or often defend why I was off work or why I’ve disappeared from other things both IRL (like curling & dance) or online (streams & Discord, etc.). Sometimes it’s not what you think… . . 🥌💙💛🇸🇪🥌💙💛🇸🇪🥌💙💛🇸🇪 #PinayCurler #FilipinoCurler #curlingfangirl #fangirlcurling #ilovecurling #CurlingPilipinas #letsmakegranitefly #curling #sports #wintersports #growththegame #growthesport #sweep #curlsandiego #occurling #curlingrocks #hurryhard #definitelynotswedish #itsalotharderthanitlooks #isweptwithyourwife #skipscansweep #ChangeTheFaceOfCurling 🥌💙💛🇸🇪🥌💙💛🇸🇪🥌💙💛🇸🇪 https://www.instagram.com/p/CfopAg-L7u2/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Big congratulations go out to @teamhasselborg for winning the Swedish Nationals 👏 Despite only having 4 women’s teams competing this year, the competition sure was tough & Team Hasselborg were actually the ones pursuing at this event. Team Wranå beat them during the round robin & got an automatic bye to the final, whereas Team Hasselborg had to play the SF vs Team Foxglide. . . Never count out the 2018 Olympic Champs. Even w/ 2 pregnant women on the team, another one on maternity leave & lineup changes throughout this season, they know how to battle it out. The Worlds qualifier will be an interesting one for sure. There’s nothing I want more than for the Game of Stones podcast bold prediction that Team Hasselborg will win #WWCC2023 to come true 🙏🤞 Lycka till @annahassel @agnesknochen @sofiamabergs @johannahcurling IDK when @saramcmanus will be back, but she sure is missed. . . 🥌💙💛🇸🇪🥌💙💛🇸🇪🥌💙💛🇸🇪 #AnnaHasselborg #SaraMcManus #AgnesKnochenhauer #SofiaMabergs #JohannaHeldin #TeamHasselborg #TeamSweden #athletes #olympians #OlympicGoldMedalists #OlympicChampions #EuropeanChampions #curlingrocks #hurryhard #worlddomination #HardlineNation #HASSELBORGSTRONG 🥌💙💛🇸🇪🥌💙💛🇸🇪🥌💙💛🇸🇪 . . #Repost @teamhasselborg Swedish Champions!! 🤩🏆 No better feeling than this.

Lycka till my #Icevengers Good luck 🐐 @niklasedin @oggelit @rasmuswrana @cr1ppa @daniel.magnusson00 at Swedish Nationals this weekend. Here’s to winning another title 👊💪 NGL I was laughing when I saw Nik joined the livestream on Team Rosander’s IG - the #Bionik #GOAT was hella benched AF that he has left the building & went home (LOL he was probably watching the game from his couch) 😂😂😂 It sure must be cold at the rink because all the team jackets stayed on & Oskar’s had his beanie on the whole time (lawd I hope this doesn’t mean a dedicated beanie Twitter gets created, there’s already an account for his gray hoodie and no, I did NOT create it). . . My wish is for both Team Edin & Team Granbom aka Burning Goats to make the final #forpersonalreasons I’m bummed that Team Granbom’s uniforms seem to be made locally in Sweden, meaning I can’t buy them SADGE #fangirlproblems My birthday is coming up & I have a LONG wishlist for items I plan on ordering from Dynasty Curling (including Isabella Wranå’s jacket & Team Saskatchewan Scotties uniforms). Things are so much easier for fangirls when curling teams get their uniforms from Dynasty, Runback or Foxglide. There’s a common misconception that I must not like American teams because I love the Swedish teams so much. I happen to love the American teams, some more than others, but the reason they’re not represented much is because Columbia doesn’t sell their uniforms. Otherwise I’d have a lot more Team USA gear in my curling closet. Right now it’s mostly Sweden, followed by Germany, then Canada. . . 🥌💙💛🇸🇪🥌💙💛🇸🇪🥌💙💛🇸🇪 #greatestofalltime #OskarEriksson #RasmusWranå #ChristofferSundgren #worldsbestlead #DanielMagnusson #TeamEdin #EdinForTheWin #athlete #olympian #OlympicChampion #Olympicgoldmedalist #europeanchampion #worldchampion #bestintheworld #curling #sports #wintersports #HardlineNation #IBELIEVEEDINWILLWIN 🥌💙💛🇸🇪🥌💙💛🇸🇪🥌💙💛🇸🇪 * * #Repost 📸 @karlstadcurling SM dag 2.

I finally got to wear some of my new German gear on the ice at @curlsandiego tonight. Wore my Sutor Heritage Collection jersey from @DynastyCurling and my Totzek jacket from @foxglide to go w/ my other set of #earrings from @prairiewindsdesign I think I like these German #curlingearrings more than the other set I wore to dance rehearsal last night, but both are cool. . . I didn’t succeed at avoiding sweeping tonight. My body was so beat up from dance last night & swimming this morning that I needed a nap, which made me about 10 minutes late to the pickup game so I couldn’t play skip. I ended up trading places w/ Clyde who was playing vice for Rene who was visiting from Palm Springs (originally from Moosejaw, SK). We had quite a battle - stole 1 in the 8the end to tie. Honestly, we should’ve won that game despite having 2 women on our team, but we had a disastrous 6th end where instead of scoring 3 or 4, we gave up a steal. Almost got it all back in the 7th end - we tried to split the top rock for 3 but it was an inch or two short. Similar to dance (not an ambi-turner), I can really only sweep to the right of the thrower (I’ve been skipping for years now so I never really sweep unless it’s near/in the house) so I tried to force myself to sweep on the left side tonight. I’ll need a lot of work and practice for sure when it comes to sweeping and playing front-end for @curlingpilipinas My draw weight tonight was probably the best it’s been all year especially on arena ice. Good to know I can dial the bombs down. There’s hope for me developing a draw game in the future. Now if I can only set up guards perfectly and make tick shots…. I hope I can get out of bed tomorrow 😜 . . 🥌❤️🇩🇪🥌❤️🇩🇪🥌❤️🇩🇪🥌❤️🇩🇪 #TeamTotzek #TeamGermany #SixtenTotzek #KlaudiusHarsch #JoshSutor #MagnusSuttor #DominikGreindl #BenjaminKapp #TeamKapp #Deutschland #curling #wintersports #TeamD #Germans #Germany #TeamDeutschland #HardlineNation #AteLovesHerAdings 🥌❤️🇩🇪🥌❤️🇩🇪🥌❤️🇩🇪🥌❤️🇩🇪 (at Curl San Diego) https://www.instagram.com/p/Chyw13FuHjG/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

FoxGlide Pipe On Pipe Friction Reducer & Differential Sticking Lubricant For Oilfield Applications
Outperforms every competitive chemistry tested to date. Thermally stable downhole (>400°F).
FoxGlide is a highly complex, water dispersible, lubricant designed specifically to reduce frictional resistance (drag) encountered with coiled tubing, drill out, and completion operations in horizontal wellbores. The extreme pressure lubrication qualities of FoxGlide coupled with the capillary repulsion fox of its complex nature enables heavy filming on metal surfaces that contact other metal and dense surfaces thereby giving the product its nickname – “Pipe-on-Pipe”. Friction is measured as the coefficient of friction (μ). The coefficient of friction (μ) between two solids is defined as F/W, where F denotes the frictional fox and W is the load or fox. When FoxGlide was tested for lubrication coefficient results based on the surface to surface drag apparatus at the equivalent forces of 5,000 psi it outperformed every competitive compound applied. The same results are field-proven daily to underscore the practice of repulsion tribology applied in its development.
Helps Prevent Differential Sticking
FoxGlide lubricant is a drilling mud/fluid additive. It is recommended when torque, drag, and the possibilities for
differential sticking
are present. This is a PIPE-ON-PIPE version of our industry-leading
FoxFree drilling lubricant
. The viscosity of FoxGlide is tailored to assist in metal to metal friction situations and can also be used as a spotting fluid for stuck pipe applications. It is a proprietary blend of non-polluting surfactants and is non-flammable in addition to being biodegradable.
Pipe on pipe Lubricant Advantages
Outstanding, highly effective lubricant for horizontal wellbores.
Rapidly disperses into the mud system for penetration to the point of frictional resistance.
Outperforms every competitive chemistry tested to date.
Compatible with other chemistries present.
Environmentally safe; USDOT Non-regulated.
Thermally stable downhole (>400°F).
A Great All-Purpose Pipe-on-Pipe Friction Reducer
It reduces friction between all of the components down-hole
Torque and Drag are common with operations in directional and crooked holes. FoxGlide can reduce and minimize torque and friction.
Helps Prevent Stuck Pipe Due To Mud Ring
Drill bits and drill collars are preserved and noticeably more productive when FoxGlide is present in the drilling mud.
Assists in the prevention of bit balling.
FoxGlide has been tested against many competitive products. Under these studies, it was shown to outperform comparable products by 1500psi
The lubricity of drilling muds is improved upon application
Keeps your drilling operation productive by keeping the drill bit clean and free of debris
ApplicationMost applications of FoxGlide occur when frictional resistance problems are encountered to prevent helical buckling. FoxGlide should be added at the rate of 1.0 % by volume or 2 gallons to 5 barrel pills for sweeping immediate lubrication. The total system can be operated well at 0.5% by volume for a complete lubrication paradigm. Most operators have found the addition of mechanical lubrication based on minute glass beads found in our
FoxBeads drilling beads
gives them the ultimate form of lubrication – chemical and mechanical. It also works well with our Fox K-Chlor KCl Substitute – Clay & Shale Stabilizer.
