Elytra Cancel

by Mrbysco

Elytra Cancel lets players stop an Elytra glide in mid-air by activating sneak, without turning around or wasting momentum.

What it does

Holding sneak while gliding with an Elytra cancels the flight, so a player can stop mid-air instead of spinning around. The mod runs on Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, and it requires Fabric API on Fabric. Client and server both need it, and the mod is open source under the MIT License, with files for 1.20.1, 1.21.1, 1.21.11, 26.1, 26.1.2, 26.2 and 26.3.

Key features

  1. Mid-air cancel

    Sneaking while gliding ends the Elytra flight at once, letting the player drop straight down.

  2. Less wasted momentum

    Stopping the glide directly avoids the spinning and drifting that otherwise follow a rapid stop.

  3. Sneak-based control

    The cancel uses the existing crouch input, so no new key binding needs to be learned.

How it compares

Deny Elytra Flight is a server-side option with files for 1.21.2 – 1.21.8, open source under the Mozilla Public License 2.0, so it blocks flight rather than cancelling a glide. Elytra Cancel needs both the client and the server, so every player must install it.

What the author says

Elytra Cancel is a small mod that adds the ability to stop Elytra flight mid-air by activating sneaking/crouching! This can be very useful if you want to cancel your momentum without spinning around a bunch mid-air, or if you want to stop your Elytra's durability from draining due to being open whilst in water!
