Fulfill your dream and learn to fly with Swing's patented RAST system, proven thousands of times, for rapid learning success.
With the Swing Mito 2 RS paraglider, the “flight instructor’s favourite” is entering its 2nd generation.
The basic concept of its successful predecessor has been retained and brought up to the latest state of the art. Among other things, you benefit from a significantly reduced canopy weight without compromising durability.
Like its predecessor, the Mito 2 RS inspires with its uncomplicated and harmonious launch behaviour. To ensure that this remains so even after many packing cycles, Swing has relied on the indestructible memory material Nitinol as profile reinforcement at the leading edge. Due to the smooth and fine handling, the Mito 2 RS is a real guarantee for fun even long after the training.

Who should fly the Mito 2 RS?
Student pilots, occasional pilots and pleasure pilots. The Mito 2 RS is exceptional for training with RAST enabling and easier launch without overshooting and greater stability for more control and comfort in the air.
Features
- RAST for maximum control
- Nitinol Battens for maximum profile stability with minimal weight
- Mini-ribs for a homogeneous trailing edge
- 3D Shaping for optimized aerodynamics
- Simple Line Layout for good sort-ability
- Coloured and Labelled Risers to minimize the risk of mistakes
RAST (Ram Air Section Technology)
The well-proven RAST system is a key component of the Mito 2 RS, and in fact, the original Mito RS was the first glider Swing developed incorporating the new RAST innovation. The intent was to give new pilots a glider that was easier to launch, with less tendency to overshoot in strong conditions on launch, and also more stability in flight. Now in the second generation, RAST has further been refined and improved. The patented bulkhead partition with its valves helps to prevent big collapses and deformations, hence reducing the risk of uncontrolled flight patterns.
Nitinol Leading Edge
Nitinol is a high-strength, temperature and corrosion resistant shape memory alloy. The name Nitinol is an acronym for Nickel Titanium Naval Ordnance Laboratory. This material is well-known in medical technology, and for some time Swing has been using it as leading edge reinforcement in paraglider design, one of the first paraglider manufacturers to do so.
For the Mito 2 RS, the Nitinol reinforcements are inserted into nylon tubes. This means that the cross-sectional area (and thus the contact area for the top surface material) could be increased without having to forego the positive features of the memory alloy (bend-resistance, length and dimensional stability).
Mini Ribs with 3D Shaping and Internal Stitching
Ballooning on the trailing edge has a considerable influence on a paraglider’s control pressure and handling. That’s why, ballooning in this area was reduced to a minimum using 3D shaping, in addition to the tried and tested mini ribs. The trick here is that the mini ribs have internal stitching on the top surface so that none of the threads can get caught up on the ground and pulled out, even when launching in difficult terrain.
Simple Line Layout with Colour Coded and Labelled Risers
Swing has made it easy for new pilots and weekend warriors to layout and quickly and correctly identify connections and controls in flight. This leads to more confidence and enjoyment while flying!
