Description
English: An opponent is thrown off his feet, losing the match. In this variation of wrestling, opponents are allowed the use of only one leg as they hold the other while trying to throw each other off balance. Hawaiian wrestling matches were held during the Makahiki opening ceremonies at Hale Koa Beach. The various matches pitted young men against one another in feats of strength and quickness. Other games played included an ancient version of bowling and the ever-popular spear-throwing competitions.
