The curling record for a 180-pound (81.65 kg) stone does not have a widely recognized standard, as curling typically uses a standard stone weight of 42 pounds (19.05 kg). However, if you are referring to a specific event or competition that features a unique weight category, additional context would be needed to provide accurate information.

When delivering a curling stone, players adjust the weight by modifying their push off and the amount of force applied during the release. They can change their stance, the speed of their slide, and the angle of their arm to influence how far the stone travels. Additionally, players may use different types of delivery techniques or release grips to achieve the desired weight for each shot. Accurate weight control is crucial for effective shot placement and strategy in the game.
