Skydiving Texans in the 70s! I recognize Phil Mayfield on the left, with Anita Howe Next to him. Also I think that's Gregg Hackett 2nd from the right. Talk about a motley crew! Thanks to Phil for providing the picture!

Let's keep that day alive! This is the baseball game that broke out in Casa Grande in '74. Pretty sure that's Hod playing catcher using a rig as a chest pad with beer in hand!

"In the early days of parachuting it was commonly supposed that the speed attained by a man in falling would be sufficient to cause loss of consciousness. Experience, however, has disproved this theory."

Mike Larson & BJ Worth then and now. Two massive influences on the evolution of relative work, and both cool as hell. They've got some stories! #casagrande #thegulch #skydiving #freefall

Do you know Jerry Bird? Jerry Bird used his photographic memory, keen eye, and innate talent to expertly coach jumpers and advance the sport of skydiving. Jumping with Jerry Bird was a badge of honor. #skydiving #freefall #jerrybird
