Donald Trump is Ready to Jump at the 2016 Mission Ridge Dummy Downhill!!!

I've had a great time attending the Mission Ridge Dummy Downhill over the years - check out these pics from 2011.
It's always a fun ... with some extra comedy in 2016 as Kurt went BIG when he had Donald Trump do the Jump! ;-)

Here's a zoomed-in look at the complete Trump Jump and Carnage

Check out the Yaw induced by the helmet collision - Trump files a protest!!!!
Time-of-flight was just under 2 seconds but Trump impacts veered ~60° to the right
Pitch & Roll were really good - he probably would have stuck the landing otherwise
Kurt's buddy (who raced the Viking Dude) owes him some beers!!!
