Gliders — Minecraft mod
by Jeryn
Gliders can be made from wood, iron and gold through to diamond and netherite, each tier a step up, giving you controlled descents and safer cave and cliff traversal long before the End is on the table. They are deliberately less powerful than the elytra so a server does not turn into a race for wings, and come with first- and third-person animations. The design goal throughout is to stay vanilla-friendly rather than reshape progression.
