Opening ceremonies
A group of skydivers officially opened the event around 10:30.
This fellow is going to have a bad day.
There was a slight breeze out of the west which I suspect might have played a roll in why this skydiver missed his mark. He was transported to Simi Valley hospital BLS (Basic Life Support) by one of the ambulances at the event.
This skydiver was trailing an American Flag.
This skydiver had a camera strapped to his right foot.
The US Coast Guard had a Boston Whaler on display along with the hardware that goes with it.
