Setting up the MIRAGE 2 RS

Replacing the trimmer webbing 

Frequent operation of the trimmers 
during flight causes the trimmer 

webbing to wear out. It can then 
happen that the trimmers open 

unintentionally in flight (possibly only 
on one side). If this happens 

frequently, the trimmer webbing 

must be replaced. Please contact your 
dealer or SWING directly.  

Your Speedbag

Speedbag-bags on your SWING 

Speed Harness 

The speedbag makes it much easier for 

you to use the MIRAGE 2 RS and is 
MANDATORY in most speedriding 
sites! 
For take-off: take the glider out of the 
speedbag, roll up the speedbag and 

pack it into the side pocket of your 
harness. 
After riding: Gather the MIRAGE 2 RS, 

take out the speedbag and lay it open 
next to the glider. Place the gathered 

paraglider on the unfolded speedbag, 
stow the paraglider in the speedbag 

and pull the speedbag closed, hook the 
speedbag to the harness  
When stowing the MIRAGE 2 RS, 

always make sure that all lines and 
straps are inside the speedbag and 

that nothing is hanging out with which 
you could get caught. 
After the last run of the day, you can 

also fix the risers to the speedbag's 
webbing by pulling the webbing 
through the riser loops.
