  Non-helical tracks are the smoking gun signature of charged and/or colored
quirks, which are pairs of particles bound by a new, long-range confining
force. We propose a method to efficiently search for these non-helical tracks
at the LHC, without the need to fit their trajectories. We show that the hits
corresponding to quirky trajectories can be selected efficiently by searching
for co-planar hits in the inner layers of the ATLAS and CMS trackers, even in
the presence of on average 50 pile-up vertices. We further argue that
backgrounds from photon conversions and unassociated pile-up hits can be
removed almost entirely, while maintaining a signal reconstruction efficiency
as high as 70%. With the 300 fb$^{-1}$ dataset, this implies a discovery
potential for string tension between 100 eV and 30 keV, and colored
(electroweak charged) quirks as heavy as 1600 (650) GeV may be discovered.
