Steel Cage Humpday Trivia Smackdown!

Dating as far back as 2000 B.C. these wooden items were crafted of various woods. But the three primary woods used were Koa, Ulu and Wili-Wili (Usually reserved for Royalty). What are these wooden items?

Let's try another one. Might a wave throw it back at me? Popular in Hawaii, Australia (got to get that country in somehow), and So. California.

Gnarly dude!
