WOW!! Just look at all that old stuff you're wearing! What's in that big
pouch in front?!? .....and check out that main cutaway system!
I didn't realize they had photography back then. :-) You probably had a
"DaVinci" main canopy, didn't you? ;-)

Even though I'm an old guy, I started jumping recently enough to have
never had a round canopy on my back and I made my pre-second jump from a
CASA 212 tailgate.

Ouch you really know how to hurt a guy Grin

That picture was taken in the early 60s over Lake Elsinore in California.
The lake was dry back then.

I made my first jump in 54 I think the last in 1970.

I really did have modern equipment on. It was a 28' 7 TU very advanced
canopy. :-)

Just poking a little fun while I stand at the precipice of senior
citizenship. :-) My generation wasn't supposed to grow old. But, thanks to
you guys paving the way, we "younger" jumpers get to have more fun in the
sky than you could have imagined back then. Nothing like stepping out that
door for the first time...........
