Very cool. Probably not very heavy, but the size probably makes it very awkward, and even worse, if you're standing on a hill that's got a good breeze going, any variation in the strength or direction of the breeze is going to make it even harder to control on the ground. Have you ever tried carrying a 4x8 sheet of plywood when it's windy?

Still, very, very cool. I assume a hang glider is much cheaper. Shoot, I bet an ultralight is quite a bit cheaper.
