Use of the SWING MIRAGE RS PLUS 

Caution! 

It is imperative that the instructions contained in this Manual are followed at all times. 

Failure to do so renders invalid the glider’s certification and/or results in loss of insurance cover. Further-
more, it could lead to serious injuries or even death.

The SWING MIRAGE RS PLUS is designed to be used with skis. We recommend using the speed rider 
with skis. 

 

The only form of launch permissible is to gather speed whilst still on land, with the canopy fully inflated, 
until the pilot becomes airborne (no cliff, D-bag or similar launches).
