How to obtain Goblin Glider Kit

Auction house

Buy Goblin Glider Kit—item 109076—and put it on your action bar.
Use it in the air after jumping/falling. Long-distance gliding needs height: an ordinary jump on flat ground provides almost none.
Turn your character to steer. The glider does not become a permanent flying mount in battlegrounds.

Before starting

Does not work in rated battlegrounds or arenas. Carrying a flag/orb and map rules may restrict use.
