Personal flight system

Methods and apparatus for providing a personal-scale wing which may be ridden by a skydiver during free fall are disclosed. Unlike previous surfboards or snowboards which have been adapted for use by skydivers, the present invention incorporates an airfoil which produces circulation lift. This lift-generating wing dramatically enhances the flight of the skydiver by enabling positive flight control and manueverability. The lift forces significantly counteract gravity, and extend the time of flight and ground track traveled by the skydiver. The present invention will expand the art of skydiving to a large number of sports enthusiasts around the world.
