Want to try out a new sport? Dig your heels into log rolling!
It's a sport that dates back to the days of lumberjacks floating giant logs down a river -- but now, you can try out a new, high-tech version.

VALLEJO, Calif. (KGO) -- Abby Delaney is carrying on a tradition - log rolling.

"Log rolling is a really unique, traditional sport that has a really rich history," she says. "It's a sport that came out of a way of life, out of the logging industry."

Since real logs are too heavy to lift into a pool, Delaney's team invented a plastic log that's filled with water.
