Replacement Parts
Components on any device tend to wear out with repeated use. Risers and pilot chutes are limited
lifetime components. With repeated use the materials break down, losing their structural integrity.
Other parts such as breakaway handles, reserve ripcords, reserve pilot chutes and reserve freebags
at times are lost after an emergency procedure. Container size and serial numbers are necessary to
insure that the proper replacement part is ordered. Please check with your dealer on the current
replacement part prices.
If you are ordering replacement risers that are different
from what you currently have please give the length
(20’”,22”,24”), color, webbing type (mini or large), toggle
type (Velcro, Velcroless), and hardware type (standard
or Stainless steel) [Fig. 1]
When ordering a main pilot chute different from the
original, please provide the following information: What
type (standard or centerline collapsible), and what type
of handle (plastic or leather hacky). Centerline pilot
chutes and hackys require color choices. [Fig. 2]
The standard color for breakaway handles is red. Other
colors are available. Embroidery is also available on the
handle. Mirage replacement breakaway handles are
stock lengths, they must be cut to proper length upon
delivery. [Fig. 3 ]
Reserve ripcords come in different lengths. Rig size
and serial numbers are very important when ordering
replacement ripcords. Please specify type of ripcord.
(Standard metal Mirage handle or the soft reserve
ripcord handle.) [Fig. 4]
Reserve freebag and reserve pilot chutes are some-
times lost after the deployment of the reserve container.
When replacing these parts, the container size and
serial number are critical. [Fig. 5]
