Early sports make today's sports look like kindergarten games! Imagine He'e Holua (Hawaiian Lava Sledding) which involved riding sledges measuring 12 ft. long and only 6 inches wide down the side of a volcano. The riders would either stand,kneel or lie face first reaching speeds up to 50 mph while seeing who could go the furthest.
Meanwhile in an even earlier Mexico Purepecha Ball was played which was a lot like field hockey except the puck was on fire which came in handy for those late night games!
