Back-Tracking | Here Comes Santa Claus

Back-Tracking highlights interesting, lesser-known moments in skydiving through the years. These photos are often unearthed from boxes in the attic, old photo albums and dimly lit DZ closets. Please send submissions to communications@uspa.org.


Santa Claus (Rich Piccirilli, D-2155) takes his self-portrait with a wing-mounted camera as he prepares to jump into the Norseman Float Plane Festival in Red Lake, Ontario, in July 1997.
