However the competition season has already began in July with Acrolac, the rules for paragliding aerobatics hasn't been published yet on the official websites.
Actually there are quite a lot of changes this year, like the difficulty coefficients of many maneuvers.

Yesterday we had perfect weather so we decided to work a little bit to make some nice photo and video images. I have to say it was a really successful afternoon, we managed to make some amazing air-to-air video and photo images from tandem. András was piloting and Pícsör was shooting the footage, both of them are very experienced cameramans and pilots of course.

I'm going to upload some more pictures and hopefully some video clips later on.

Dear Pilots!

As you might noticed, in the upper menu line you can find a new title, the BLOG. Here we will share what is happening with us and our friends day by day. We created this to have a place where we can share our more personal thoughts and memories, separated to the news of the acro world.

Looking forward to read your comments under these articles, hope you will enjoy it!

Hi 4 all,

I'm pretty happy to write the first comment at justACRO blog. Gotta be short, since we have to go to the take off soon. Where? Of course we are in Organyá. Actually this we constituted by many people. The oldest residents are Pál, Gábor, Szasza and the filming crew: Saci and me.

The campsite was empty at the beginning, but nowdays it's hard to find a place to pitch a tent. Two days ago other Hungarian pilots arrived: Lupus, Pícsör and Adri. Evenings are loud by German words too, members of Against the Grain Acro Team cooking their pasta in their big tent.

The next Aerobatics Paragliding World Cup event will take place in the beginning of August, at the beautiful Zell am See, which is also one of the most famous cross country starting points in Austria. However the competitors will take-off from Schmitten Hoehe which is facing directly to the lake. The landing platform wil be placed just next to the city center, so thousands of spectators are expected to see the competition and different shows between the runs like BASE jumping, The Renegades, ACRO Fr!tz and Mike Küng. In the final task the best pilots will jump from helicopter.

With 3 successful solo and synchro run the Pre World Championship has finished on friday.
