Neither grace, style or ability are evident here :-D

This is another page scanned from my 1950s Evinrude "How To" Book of Water Skiing. This part of the book instructs you how to build your own jump ramp and huck yourself off of it. Absolutely freakin' hilarious! :D Apparently, lawsuits were not a major part of American life back then. I love it. Guys with apparently no ability or training with no helmets or floatation hucking themselves off jump ramps and ending in complete disaster and carnage. Can't get much funnier than that. :p

 

 

If I formatted and cleaned this up to be suitable for printing at 11 x 17 poster size, would anybody be interested?

Hilarious!

Count me in for 2 if they 're price right and print on goop paper!

What you are missing is that it was safer to land on your head back then. No rubber shorts, you see.
