8th Annual Diamond Peak Dummy Downhill

Incline Village, NV- April 5, 2008 is a day of dummies at Diamond Peak! The Dummy Downhill has been a favorite event for eight years and every year it gets bigger and better. Join us for the 8^th Annual Dummy Downhill where participants build a dummy on skis or snowboards that get launched off of a big jump. Watch as unique characters fly down the hill or crash hard. This is the flugtag for dummies!

Those who enter a dummy will receive a free commemorative T-shirt and lift ticket (limit 4 per dummy). The Dummy Downhill is open to the public and there are no registration fees. Dummies need to be at the base lodge by 11:00 am to be judged on creativity. The jumping will begin at noon and an award ceremony will follow along with live music.

Dummy builders are encouraged to be as creative as they can. The following restrictions apply to all dummies: they can not be live, must not weigh more than 75 lbs, teams that build their dummies to lose parts as they crash will be required to clean up afterward. At least one person from each team must be available to transport and/or unload their dummy at the top of the launch.

Last year’s categories included: Best Crash, Longest Jump, Most Creative, and more. Winners will receive gift certificates to Aloha Skin Spa and Cosmo's Footworks. The Dummy Downhill is a perfect Spring event!

Diamond Peak is located on 1210 Ski Way in Incline Village, Nevada. For more information and current conditions, call 775-832-1177.
