The Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series is held from March through September, in locations around the world. In July, the fifth stop in the series took place in Malcestine on Lake Garda in Italy. About 15,000 spectators watched the event, not including the many people who moored their yachts and motorboats close to the steep cliffs for a good view of the competition. Each dive is scored by five judges who award points based on execution and degree of difficulty.

Photographers Romina Amato, Dean Treml, and Damiano Levanti captured the action in Malcestine for Red Bull.
