contents Though some LHC searches for new physics exceed the TeV scale, there may be discoveries waiting to be made at much lower masses. We outline a simple quirk model, motivated by models that address the hierarchy problem through neutral naturalness, in which new electroweakly charged states with masses as low as 100 GeV have not yet been probed by the LHC. We also describe a novel search strategy which is complementary to current search methods. In particular, we show its potential to discover natural quirks over regions of parameter space that present methods will leave unexplored, even after the LHC's high-luminosity run.
