MIRAGE 2 RS
…step up your game!
Extended range and better performance, without sacrificing the proven all-round characteristics and nature of the Mirage series – that was precisely our goal in developing the Mirage 2 RS!
Through meticulous R&D over a period of two years, our development team of passionate speedflying and speedriding pilots, has succeeded in extending the scope of the glide from “extremely steep” to the best glide performance, as well as the usable speed range, while retaining the character and safe feeling of its predecessor.
This is mainly made possible by a new, very stable performance profile, with Nitinol-reinforced leading edge in combination with our patented RAST system, which has been optimally adapted to the Mirage 2 RS.
The new, lightweight risers, equipped with Split-A Riser and a C-Bride, give you maximum control and precise steering over the entire trim range.
MIRAGE 2 RS PRO
The Mirage 2 RS on steroids for pilots who want everything and more!
3 Features that make the difference:
- Exclusive PRO TEAM design and branding
- 14 cm trim for even steeper lines and more speed
- Thinner line material for razor-sharp handling over the entire speed range, even more speed, and uncompromising performance
The Mirage 2 RS PRO is available in sizes 7, 8.5, and 9.5, and can be ordered exclusively in the PRO TEAM design. An upgrade from the Mirage 2 RS to the PRO version is not possible.
Who is the PRO for?
The PRO series is aimed at ambitious and passionate pilots who pursue their sport intensively and deliberately. The entire setup with a 14 cm trim requires an active flying style and appropriate flying experience with the Mirage 2 RS series.
MIRAGE 2 RS 17 TWIN
Share the Passion!
The Mirage 2 RS Twin is for qualified pilots who want to share their passion for speedriding to passengers.
The Mirage 2 RS 17 Twin has an extended load test and a Mirage 2 RS riser with 2 attachment points. It also has a third stem line per line level, which further increases safety during high wing loads.
We recommend to launch and land the Mirage 2 RS 17 Twin with skis only.
The Mirage 2 RS 17 Twin is available in all serial designs.
For whom is the Mirage 2 RS 17 Twin suitable?
The Mirage 2 RS 17 Twin may only be used by pilots for passenger flights if the personal and legal requirements in the respective area of operation are fulfilled… Please also note the national legislation for conducting paragliding tandem flights.
Important information about the glider sizes:
In order to make it easier for you to compare the wing area of Speedwings across manufacturers, we have calculated and specified the area laid out, with one of the most common development programmes. This sometimes results in discrepancies between the size information in the glider name and the wing area specification in the technical data.We have decided not to adjust the size information to the new area calculation, so that you know which size of Mirage 2 RS is suitable for you, based on your experience with one of the previous models.

TESTIMONIALS
The more speed and the better performance of the new Mirage 2 RS were already clearly noticeable during the first few flights I was able to make with it and let the expectation for a new era of the Mirage RS series rise!
I really like the precision, the energy, and the roll of the Mirage 2RS.
The speed is fantastic, you can really feel the difference to the Mirage RS plus!
After the many prototypes we tested over the long development period, I am still thrilled after a flight with the final Mirage 2 RS . The M2RS is like a Mirager RS plus “on steroids” and a significant tangible increase in every aspect.It was important to us during development that the Mirage 2 RS is at least as safe as its predecessor despite the increase in performance. The wing now delivers more feedback to the pilot, allowing him to more actively use the precise handling of the Mirage 2RS to its full potential. This and the many small detail enhancements, as well as the control with the C-Bridge, make for the Mirage 2 RS the ultimate proxy machine! I am already looking forward to the feedback from the pilots!
The Mirage 2 RS is an all-round machine that leaves no wishes unsatisfied for me. Super fast, nice to roll, responsive on the brake with a very high range of dive to the best glide. On the C-Bridge the Mirage 2 RS is very easy to control with open trimmers! At all stages the M2RS it is on track and gives me exactly the feedback I demand from a speedflying glider. The energy build-up and the recovery arc are very accurate for a great swoop.
For me, the Mirage 2 RS is a significant improvement on the original Mirage RS, which I really loved to fly. The Mirage 2 RS has significantly improved key performance points. It is faster over the entire range with a slightly better glide and improved dive. For me, the Mirage 2 RS remains a pure all-rounder. In a comparison flight with a pilot of the same weight who flew the previous model one size smaller, we were similarly fast. The difference in performance and speed is so clear and significant.
