A geometrical model of a massive spinning particle, whose quantization corresponds to the unitary irreducible representation of the Poincaré group, is considered. It is shown that the class of gauge-equivalent trajectories of the particle forms a cylindrical surface in d = 4 Minkowski space. Basing ourselves on the fact that the trajectories of the particle are cylindrical lines, we have obtained the equations of motion of the particle on a world sheet along timelike and isotropic trajectories.
