Wing Walker
This innovative wing wheel features a wheel that rotates freely about the vertical axis. This avoids the situation where the wing wheel is not quite aligned with the direction of travel and scrubs and jumps across on the ground as the glider is moved. It eliminates bending and twisting forces on the glider wing. Also having no scrubbing means that the tire will last longer. The small pneumatic wheel mechanism has a spring suspension to minimize shock.
