REPLACEMENT LINES

Swapping out lines on your paraglider might sound as daunting as defusing a bomb, but with a little guidance, it’s more like piecing together a puzzle – fun and satisfying. At PG-Repair, we’re all about making that puzzle a bit easier to solve. Whether you need one line replaced or the whole shebang, we’ve got your back with custom lines that’ll get your glider feeling brand new.

Our workshop is a treasure trove of lines from the crème de la crème of suppliers – Edelrid, Liros, Teijin, and Cousin. We’re like the baristas of the paragliding world, mixing up the perfect blend from what we’ve got in stock. But, just like crafting that perfect coffee, we need the exact measurements. If you’re ordering custom lines, measure twice, cut once, as the old saying goes. And if you’re not too sure, you can always send us the actual line. That way, we can measure it up for you, ensuring a perfect fit.

Now, when it comes to fitting those lines, it’s not rocket science, but there’s a bit of art to it. Removing the old line is step one – just unhook it from the maillon, noting how it was attached (single loop, double loop, clove hitch, clove hitch plus loop) or better make a photo and let us figure out the loop. Fitting the new line is the reverse process. The trick is remembering which loop was in place before, as this ensures the new line matches the length and tension of its comrades.

If you’re staring down a full line set replacement, it’s best to give us a shout. We can walk you through the options and figure out the best course of action together. It’s a bit like navigating a maze – much easier with a guide.
