Tippy Tables

The **Tippy Tables** was an obstacle in Dizzy Dummies for 7 episodes, between Series 1 and Series 2.

It consists of two tables that are only fixed in place horizontally at the middle. This causes the table to tip around ±30°. The tables were greased to make them more difficult to traverse, adding to the difficulty of the obstacle. On each table there is a foam block that helps the competitors stay on the tables. Occasionally, the blocks fall off of the tables, increasing the difficulty of the obstacle. If a competitor falls off of the obstacle, they must swim back to the start of the obstacle and try again.
