I started jumping at 53. That was 14 years ago and I now have over 3000 skydives. You are as old as you feel and act. My life has been so much better due to the great group of friends I have made. You are only as good as you think you are.

I also started late at 53 years old. That was 13 years ago and I currently have 3000 skydives including many state, national and world record skydives. i also do video for 4 and 8 way teams. I have been to the Nationals for the last 7 years and have a silver medal in 8 way and a bronze in 4 way. I am on the big way circuit and have done 41 jumps of 100 or more in them. I will be in Deland next month doing the pop's 130 way record attempt. Age is just a number. I am 66 but feel 35 because I am so active in Racquetball, skiing, scuba diving and skydiving year round. Live the dream and start those jumps ASAP. You are only as good as you think you are.

I am still crying about it. Hope to see you soon superstar!!!! You are only as good as you think you are.

John Kalland is really old and really heavy for someone his age. We love him anyway and he gives great advice. L.T. You are only as good as you think you are.

I started skydiving at 53 years young. I am now 66 and have 3000 skydives, and numerous state, national and world records in my log book. I have also done video for 4 and 8 way teams at the last 6 National Competitions. Age is just a number. Go for it. L.T. You are only as good as you think you are.

2775 jumps 2 cutaways 1 spinning main, 1 opening so hard it ripped 3 lines off the canopy. You are only as good as you think you are.

At our dropzone we anly ask jump numbers to get an idea where to put you on our next dive. We jump with anyone who wants to do RW. When you are in NEW JERSEY next, stop in at X-Keys and share some jumps with Steve Love and L.T You are only as good as you think you are.

Great job John. You are only as good as you think you are.

Just a little older. I started at 53 and have almost 3000 skydives. You are at a great age to start your jumping career. You are only as good as you think you are.

I am also better looking than Kallend111111 You are only as good as you think you are.

You are not too old to start skydiving. I started at 53 years old and that was 12 years ago. I am now 65 with many state, national and world record skydives to my credit. Even at 65, I have been the video guy for 4 and 8 ways teams that compete on the National level. If you want to get good at the sport, you must stay current. Skydiving becomes a lifestyle. Good health is very important as is flexability. Go for it and take each level in stride. If you want it bad enough, it will happen. You are only as good as you think you are.

I do video for a 4 way team with a tight fitting set of sunglasses and my contact lenses. I have no problem. You are only as good as you think you are.

New SOS world record of a 48 way that we held for 20 seconds. Trying 60 wqys tomorrow. Very cool. L.T. You are only as good as you think you are.

Hi John, L.T. and my wife Daryl will be there to set the new record. I hope I am on your plane. We rock as wackers. L.T. You are only as good as you think you are.
