The only thing that would be better would indeed be seeing 2011 pics or video, or *gasp* pre-2004!

Just found - "taken on June 27, 2003." Not sure if it is a report but it was recently posted on flicker. Can anyone translate this?

Ballongdance ist eine Art schwedische Inaugurationsveranstaltungen für jene Studenten, die im ersten Semester starten. Diese Tradition fand in den 1980ern immer mehr Verbreitung. Zur Gaudi der Zuschauer tanzen die Studenten nackt oder fast nackt während die Männer manchmal gar nichts anhaben, sind die Mädchen nur ”topless” und haben normalerweise ihre Unterbekleidung an. Die Luftballons werden zu einer mehr oder weniger ausgefeilten Choreographie im Takt der Musik geschwenkt, wobei man den Zuschauern immer wieder einen kurzen Blick auf die intimeren Körperbereiche gestattet.

Just ran this through Google Translate, and here is the result:

"Ballongdance is a kind of Swedish inaugural events for those students who start in the first semester. This tradition found in the 1980s,becoming more widespread. Dance to the fun of the audience naked or nearly naked students while the men sometimes wear nothing at all, the girls are just "topless" and usually have their underwear on. The balloons can be pivoted to a more or less sophisticated choreography to the beat of the music, it allows the audience time and again a glimpse of the intimate body parts."

with the wrong dates, looks like a hack job to me rather than new content. What about 2011? When is the event?

Unfortunately I have bad news. To begin with, the weather was nasty today. There were showers during balloon dances, and since I only have borrowed camera system for this year's shooting, I dared not even take it out of the bag and risking water damage.

It does not stop there! A total of six classes of dance, but only five made ​​it. Of these five, two dance acts with topless girls. Two of the six was what we did this year. Very sad! I know that last year's dance was documented a little too good and perhaps deterred year girls. We'll take it slow with posting pictures on the net, it was neither I nor Gunde Svan last year. I recommend you instead to go there and see the spectacle live. Gislaved is a very nice ... village?

After the dance complained that the speakers that people took a picture and someone with a big lens had skymtats. Then I heard a student from any of the participating classes roared into the one who footed. This year's first two acts is thus documented and it was just the first two that were worth seeing.

Where do we go now?
