We propose a simple classical model of the zitterbewegung. In this model spin is proportional to the velocity of the particle, the component parallel to p is constant and the orthogonal components are oscillating with 2p frequency. The quantization of the system gives wave equations for spin 0, 1/2, 1, 3/2,..., etc. respectively. These equations are convenient for massless particles. The wave equation of the spin-1, massless free particle is equivalent to the Maxwell equations and the stare functions have a probability interpretation and exhibit conserved current densities. The ground state has zero energy.
