We had half sheets of plywood we would jump into dustdevils with.
We'd steal handles off of anything we could find and attach them with bent over nails.
Slammed on our face 98 of 100 times, best air was probably a very scary 10feet.
When I bought the surplus little reserve parachute, mom put the halts to our devil chasing.
So, we switched to model rockets...those got VERY big.
Almost every scar I have is bicycle related.
