1994: BalancePlus is founded

The company is still rather young.
1994 Lino Di Iorio wasn't at the age of 46 any more a young man when he started curling. Not only, that he fell immediately for the sport, but he also thought the equipment should be improved. The curlingshoes used at that time didn't help much to keep the balance and had too much drag.
He started experimenting and in early 1995 he had developed a slider, that helped to balance and gave him a longer slide.
 

The Slider

At first he didn't trust his findings. It seemed to be so simple, that he thought it might be forbidden by curling rules because nobody else used it. A few friends tested and were enthusiastic. As a result, they wanted their curling shoes to be equipped with Lino's new slider.
That was how Ed Werenich first got his new slider and then his new business partner: Lino Di Iorio. He sold BalancePlus Curlingshoes in his curling depot pro shop.
In 1995 Lino registered his patent which was finalized in 1997. And the season 1995/96 saw the breakthrough of BalancePlus curlingshoes to the world elite of curlers. Sales started to go through the roof and as a consequence production was professionalized. In July of 1996 BalancePlus Inc. was founded by Lino and Lynne Di IOrio and Scott Taylor.
And the story went on.
 

The Top: BalancePlus Delux

Perfect methods of production, the usage of holes in the slider and other improvements led finally in 1998 to the development of the BalancePlus Delux series.
The curling shoes that is, up until today, the most widely used curling shoe at world level competition.
