This is one of the show’s most-impressive feats, period. How does he do it?
In costume, he hovers a full foot off the ground, bobbing up and down as if he were genuinely levitating.
From a standing position, he can take off and quickly gain (and maintain) momentum.
He can fly steadily for hundreds of yards, not losing a single inch of height.
Hmm.
Getting a good look at his costume, there’s little to be seen. Nothing on his feet, and no indication of wires… though to be fair, he would have nothing to hang from, using said wires outside.
Here, he passes over the sled by mereinches, further discounting any sort of extra objects attached to his feet.
Oh! Oh! They caught him! Here we go!
Lemme try to guess… well, in order for him to:
Hover, standing, a foot above the ground
Initiate horizontal flight instantly
Fly for several hundred yards or more
Maintain height indefinitely without descending
It would have to be… some form of zero-gravity invention, with hyper-precise movement, controlled by telepathy since he doesn’t move externally?
Maybe an invisible, silent, undetectable helicopter flown by an accomplice, suspending him via wires that are also somehow invisible? What is it?!
Velma: “It was simple! Transparent plastic skis!”

…no.
No.
This is not ok.
YOU CAN’T JUST ACT LIKE SLIGHTLY-TRANSLUCENT SKIS GIVE PEOPLE THE POWER OF LEVITATION
