Polo remains a male- dominated sport at the top. But the Hawaii Polo Club is galloping into action this season with plenty of women in the club, and an inaugural interscholastic polo team on Oahu made up entirely of teen girls.
Wondering what some of the world's best surfers are up to? Well, from December to February, a slew of them will be chasing Hawaii's biggest waves in the Red Bull Magnitude contest.

The first-ever all-digital, all-female Red Bull Magnitude big-wave event window has come to a close, and Keala Kennelly has won the top honors: the veteran Hawaiian hellwoman took home the award for Overall Performer.
As a refresher, Magnitude was a three-month event, challenging female chargers to surf the biggest waves possible during the Hawaiian season. The prize purse totaled $40k – KK took home $25k for her Overall Performer award, while Emi Erickson and Makani Adric won $5k each for Best Ride at Waimea Bay and Overall Runner-Up, respectively. KK also won a cherry-on-top $5k for Biggest Wave, thanks to her Outer Reef bomb on Oahu. And Makani bagged another $5k for the People’s Choice award, presented by Yeti.
