Dan Rigby descends safely under his reserve after cutting away over Freeport, Illinois, during a practice jump for the base of a 100-way attempt in 1985.


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.
