Hang glider

While most outsiders consider the Ewoks a primitive species, the short stocky humanoids have learned to use their natural resources to manufacture a wide range of incredible tools. Among their many inventions are catapults, numerous handheld weapons, expansive tree villages, and a variety of traps. Their most stunning creation, however, is undoubtedly the versatile hang glider. An Ewok begins constructing a hang glider by stalking a killing a number of large animals. These creatures are skinned, and their pelts strached and dried until they form a durable leather. The skins are then sewn together and connected to a simple, skeletal framework.

Originally, the hang gliders may have been used simply to transport Ewoks across the forests. Eventually, they began carrying rocks, spears, and slings for use in hunting small creatures from above. The Ewoks soon realized that these same weapons could also be used in defence against towering monsters such as the Gorax. Thus, when the Ewoks agreed to aid the Rebels, they used their extensive experience with their remarkable hang gliders to gain an advantage over the land-bound Stormtroopers.
