Incline Village, NV- Diamond Peak held a successful Dummy Downhill on April 5th with over 20 dummy participants. The deck was full of people and it was a perfect sunny day with a jump built on Lower Showoff. Dummies of all shapes and sizes flew down the mountain, exploding, back-flipping, or landing the jump perfectly. The Downhill Luge won the biggest ball of flame award and the longest jump (landing 146 ft.) and Jackpot Judy won the Originality Award for its bright silver slot machine with a girl holding the handle. Don’t Drink the Kool Aid was a massive spaceship that floated gracefully through the air, and the Turkish Scuba Diver left a red trail down the mountain. Check out the results:

Most Creative: Herd of Birds
Best Crash: Flying Q
Longest Jump & Biggest Ball of Flame: Downhill Luge
Best Overall: Hungry Bear
Originality Award: Jackpot Judy
Most Graceful Flight: Raptor
Best Special Effects Award: Penguin Pete
