Grillmayer Alexandra in female and Pál Takáts in the overall category have won Paranoia Acrobatixxx, the first of the - only - two World Cup events of the season, held in Zell am See, Austria for the fifth time! As usual the altitude in the flying box was pretty low, between 3-400 meters so the pilots were performing 3 maneuvers only. It means that everything has to run perfectly, otherwise even a small mistake makes out big differences in the scoring. Regarding the new rules now the landing takes 20% of the total scoring (it is the double than it used to be) and the ground spiral coefficient jumped up from 3 to 4 which makes the landings a lot more exciting since everybody is giving a try for the spiral-raft landings to get out maximal points.
Task 1
After the qualification he first task took place on thursday afternoon. In this task the pilots had to fly a restricted program. The restricion was that they were only allowed to fly manoeuvres until cofficient 1,70. Cyril Planton flew to the first place in the first task. Some newcomers qualified them to take part and showed also their great abilities to fly acro.

The newcomer Tim Alongi from France conjured his performance in the sky and the jury rewarded him with the second place. Horacio Llorens who is flying this year with a new glider from his cousin Raul Rodriguez saved him the third place.

Task 4
Saturday the 17th July 2010: A wonderful day again although the weather forecasts where not the best. Horacio Llorens from Spain was able to fly on the first place in this task just before Pal Takats and Tim Alongi. The run was also a free announced program. We saw many spectacular manoeuvres, ground spirals, landings on the raft and extra ordinary water landings. Espacially Marvin Ogger showed the public a thrilling water landing just in front of the public.
