stuny Posted March 6, 2018 Share #1 Posted March 6, 2018 Advertisement (gone after registration) For two weeks in February every year the Rapa Nui people of Easter Island hold a festival with many different competitions. their "surfing" competition involves riding a reed totoro all the way to shore, and the first to achieve it wins that competition. It's much harder than one would imagine, trying to ride in and stay on the totoro. It took the better part of an hour before a winner emerged. Welcome, dear visitor!

stuny Posted March 7, 2018 Author Share #6 Posted March 7, 2018 David - Thank you. Allan - Thank you. A Speedo would provide tremendously greater coverage. The men wear the same outfits (with or without clay body painting) in the running competitions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
