Hawaiian lava sledding
Hawaiian lava sledding (Hawaiian: hee hōlua, "sled surfing") is a traditional sport of the Native Hawaiians. Similar to wave surfing, hee hōlua involves the use of a narrow ( long, wide) wooden sled (''papa hōlua''). The sled is used standing up, lying down, or kneeling, to ride down man-made or naturally occurring courses (''kahua hōlua)'' of rock, often reaching speeds of or greater. In the past, Hawaiian lava sledding was considered both a sport and a religious ritual for honoring the gods.
==Sleds==

Papa hōlua are composed of a pair of runners and a superstructure (platform). The runners are made from hard native woods, traditionally that of kauila (''Alphitonia ponderosa'' or ''Colubrina oppositifolia''), uhiuhi (''Caesalpinia kavaiensis''), or māmane (''Sophora chrysophylla''). The runners have up-curved fore edges, straight aft edges, and rounded lower edges. Crosspieces keep the runners apart. The superstructure, two rails smaller in diameter than the runners and spaced apart by pieces of bamboo, sits on top of the crosspieces. The runners, crosspieces, and rails are bound together with sennit cordage. The rails are wrapped in white kapa cloth and the rail frame is covered in lauhala matting. Oil from kukui (''Aleurites moluccana'') nuts coats either the course or the runners to provide lubrication.〔
