    You get a little exercise and get to fly too.

    Yeah, basically a glider without a fuselage that you sit in from the get-go. You just stand in it instead then pull your feet up.

    Gliders have real long thin high aspect ratio wings which really makes it easy for them so 'soar' on the air without much effort. You get enough lift in a glider from the convection of the earth and warm columns of air rising from the ground, mountain waves, etc, and you can stay up in a glider for hours.

    That thing weighs 120 pounds. Needs a strong man to handle the takeoff and especially the landing.
