Brasil Acro Tour 2007 - Ibituruna

The 2nd video of our flying trip to Brasil is ready!

We spent 3 weeks in Governador Valadares to train and to present acro during the Valadares Open XC competition. Beside those many rainy days (chuva!) we could also catch some with great conditions, above the huge black rock: Ibituruna.

This film is dedicated to all our friends in the sky!


Have fun!

U-Turn MORPHEUS: No business like show business

Adrenalin, agility, action – this trinity in the acro sky has a new name: U-Turn MORPHEUS. To experience the full G-FORCE agility with this highly flexible canopy, just before and at the limit but with an extra portion of safety – this is the promise of the MORPHEUS.

Independence - DUKE

The Independence Duke is an uncompromising aerobatic wing.

Pure dynamic together with a very direct handling enables the experienced pilot to fly all aerobatic maneuvers with a maximum of precision.

By it´s very efficient profile the Duke is despite of the small surface, which is usual for acro-wings, also a very good wing in thermal or dynamic soaring conditions.
