I was always close to near-nature, extreme sports. After 4 years of caving and mountain climbing on the autumn of 2001 my attention turned to paragliding. During the basics course I already knew, it is not only another, new hobby but much more. Flying became quickly a passion and soon after a real lifestyle. As my airtime was growing I felt I need something more than most of the pilots and in 2003 I started to practice the very basics of acro flying. At this time I met with Gábor and we started to learn together, self-educated, since there were no other acro pilots in Hungary at that time. In 2005 we participated in our first international acro competitions that gave us huge impulse and motivation to continue. From the enthusiasm for free flying borned the idea of justACRO.com portal that started in May of 2006 and it became the biggest, informative website of aerobatics paragliding. In the same year after lot of practice I could stand up on the podium both in solo and synchro category and during the 2007 season we could catch up with the best pilots in the world, that exceeded even our bravest expectations...
