Curling is a Friend Ability in Kirby Star Allies. With this ability, Kirby can transform into a curling stone to slide across the ground. It can be used to pound stakes sticking out of walls, but not those on the floor. Rocky, Rick, and Gooey can also turn into Curling stones.
While Kirby or an ally is in stone form, a friend with the Water, Ice, or Cleaning abilities can use an ability attack on the Stone user to transform them into the Curling stone. It comes in three distinct forms depending on what element is used to activate it. Using Splash attacks from abilities like Water will cause Splash Curling, which causes the stone to fly forward while spraying its surroundings with water. The second, known as Ice Curling, functions similarly to Stone-Ice from Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards, though it creates a frozen surface as it travels. The third is Clean Curling, made by using Bluster attacks from Cleaning to cause the stone to fly forward at high speed with wind effect. Aside from the effect, Clean Curling also falls more slowly in the air than the other two.
