aways wanted to hand or para-glide but worry about the associated risks? fear not, you can now do so safely just 3-feet above the ground. the StreetFlyer created by Dr. Carsten Mehring, is exactly the machine that will let you do just that. this frame-like wheeled structure has a horizontal hand-gliding harness which readily transforms the user from running to horizontal position. oh, it has one thing that a real free-flying glider doesn’t has: brakes. now, you can’t actually stop a glider in midair, can you? sounds like a whole lot of fun to me.
