Metric balsa is very hard to find! It is only grown in the Metrictrainien forest, there is only one known tree deep in the forest gaurded by the Muttnics tribe and are known to be cat eaters! The Mutts as they are called go as far back as 5 years when one of the local towns people married his long time girlfriend Nancy Beldman! Back to back they faced each other because Nancy was on the track team so she was able to out run the locals till one came up with a plan! The plan was well thought out it took months and months to make his plan work, So one day or maybe it was the day before? he had put on his uncle Willies ape suit and as Nancy ran past him knowing it was really one of the locals in uncle Willies ape suit tripped her and was engaged and married before the wounds healed! Now they and thier brood the Mutts gaurd the metric balsa tree in hopes of someday turning it into a 7-11! Mutts are some of your nicest people till you cross them by not buying something and still using the Metrictrainien forest as a bathroom! I know this to be all facts, I asked my Ex girlfriend and she said yes!

And this is why I think a Balsa glider would burn and a solid diamond metric one going the other way would not!
