Elytra

Elytra (pronunciation: &#91;ˈɛl ɪ trə&#93;  el -i-trə) are items that allow the player to glide.

Obtaining
Elytra are found in end cities. One pair of elytra is found within an item frame in each End ship.

Usage
Elytra are equipped in the chestplate slot. Looking upwards while gliding temporarily halts falling, however doing this for too long stalls the player (indicated by the player moving their limbs). Landing or taking damage while elytra are equipped deals one point of durability damage. Elytra have 433 durability, however this can be increased by enchanting it with the Unbreaking enchantment using an anvil. You will not take fall damage while the elytra is equipped unless you nose-dive (Look straight down in mid air) and then you will take the fall damage the distance you nose-dived. To initiate flying the player must jump of a ledge of some sorts and control their direction by orienting their view angle.

When elytra reach 1 remaining durability, they stop working until repaired with leather in an anvil. they will not lose durability past this point. These “broken” elytra have a different texture.
