Maui Roller Girls

What do you get when you take a bunch of youngish, estrogen-fueled women, shod them in roller skates, and make them chase each other around an oval track whilst ramming each other?  Well, all you need to add is baby oil and... I mean uh, you get Roller Derby of course!  Dubbed "Clash of the Islands," yesterday's roller derby bout pitted Oahu's Mischevils (in black) against Maui's own Crazy 808's (in white).

I remember when these girls were struggling to find practice space on Maui a couple years ago, going from parking lot to parking lot.  With names like "Go!ShiShi," "Nun Chuck," and "Yo Mama Bin Laden," it was a pleasure to watch these chicks get themselves dizzy.

The girls with the stars on their helmets are the "jammers" and score points.
