Acrolac
Acrolac (also a staion of the World Aerobatics Tour) started in 2002 and till 2004, and it took place at Lac d'Aiguebelette, close to Chambéry (France).
However Lac d'Aiguebelette was not the perfect spot for an aerobatics competition and many times the competitors doesn’t have enough altitude above the lake to finish their programs. In 2005 the organizers decided to move the competition to the nearby Lac du Borget.

Well, actually it is not really an acro competition but mostly acro pilots takes part in. It's the ultimate competition of WAGA flying, the freestyle section of paragliding.
What is it all about? All kind of tricks with ground contact, like amazing helicopter landings, death spirals, advanced ground handling and such a spectacular things.

This competition takes place in Slovenia, at the beautiful lake of Bohinj, since 2001. Till 2003 it was also also a station of the World Aerobatics Tour.

Depends on the weather conditions the pilots can take-off from the Vogar and the Vogel mountains.

Unfortunately, in 2004 the competition was cancelled, but in 2005 the contest was held again.

Update: Due to the low interest, it was cancelled again in 2007...
