Women are finding their way into big wave surfing. The ladies big wave contest held in Waimea bay is for women only. Honoring a famous Hawaiian woman of the past, Kuhina Nui Ka'ahumanu (1968-1833) was arguably the most influential woman figure in Hawaiian history. She pushed for women's rights and gender equality and loved to paddle and surf. She was an iconic female figure way before her time. What better way to honor her than a big wave contest just for ladies?
