Default I weigh 255 pounds... am I disqualified from this sport?

Most German built gliders such as the Grob 103 have a per seat limitation of
242#.
But again they may only have a useful load of about 400# for both seats
combined.

The US built SGS 2-32 should be your glider of choice.
Many single seat gliders have Max pilot weight limits around 200-210# such
as the SGS 1-36 or 1-34.
Other single seat glass birds, if you can fit you can fly.

I guess the title says it all..... can't even do an "intro" flight
because of COG constraints?
