Tell Us About Setting A Record

First record was at the very first Gainesville divisional in '69 in D/S. The last record was in '06 at SGMSP in D/FIA. Several in between but one of the most memorable was in '71, I set the O/S record at the Gainesville divisional at around 13.45 or so, tore down and was declared legal. Communication in those days was weak to say the least and little did I know that on the same day in BG Bruce Wilkinson was setting the O/S record at 13.40 or so. I received a record certificate but it never made ND which was a big deal back then.
