Hi guys, I´m trying to upload some nice pictures from acroandes 2007 but I´m having some problems to create a new gallery.

Brasil Acro 2007 was a beautiful and unforgettable party.
For the first time I was chosen to be the speaker. It was impossible to imagine that would be so exciting!

After two days of bad weather conditions, the competition started on Saturday - 11/17, but with strong winds. On Sunday - 11/18, the gods generously gave us a perfect day.

There's a lot of pix and movies and the guys are uploading in different sites on the web, when I get new links, I'll posting here.

The competition was super nice and personal. Me and Marcell both have some pictures. Maybe we can upload some of them the next time we can get our Laptops online.

There were mostly south american pilots competing, plus the only female Celine.

Maybe there will be a small south american acro competition tour next year...

All the best,

Bernd :)
