Sweden knew Canada's Marc Kennedy was a notorious cheater.
So they set up a camera at the 'hog line' to record it.
And caught him doing it at the Olympics.

Its a little silly and overblown which is the perfect sports drama I love, the effect before you hit the line where you're supposed to let go of the stone is negligible because... you can still hold the stone then anyway
Surely it matters enough that the risk of being caught cheating doesn't stop them from doing it?
It's sort of good drama I guess I'd call it. We aren't dealing with doping, sex crimes, etc. just a little finger boop.

This fucking sent me holy shit
It is, but slowing the spin after letting go of the handle that way does allow some fine tuning that wither should be allowed for everyone or should t be allowed. That slight difference of spin over the distance can translate to a pretty different angle near the end.
