Product Description The best flying rings in the world, so aerodynamically designed it has set a world record for the farthest throw. Twice as far as conventional discs. It is made from the highest quality materials to a precision tolerance within the width of a human hair. Easy to throw and catch. A real confidence builder. Teachers are using them in Jr. high and High school for Aerobie PE and for science lessons. Have a fling.

Best toss toy everNovember 19, 2008 Throws great and our dog loves it. She is able to catch it on the inside of the ring as well as doing some great tricks with it. All the dogs seem to like to put it over their heads and run around. Our rings are left out on the ground year round and get rough dog play and chewing so after a couple years they crumble. In normal use I could see it lasting quite a lot longer.
Easy to throw far distances (and extremely durable)August 20, 2004 I had one of these for a few years until I finally achieved throwing it up into a 40' tree. ...I plan on buying another one very soon for it was the best "frisbee" that I had ever used in back and forth games. ....With your hardest throw possible, you'd probably lose the thing, because it has the ability to fly so far and so easily. It flies very straight including through wind... Anyways, I find the review about the durability and cracking to be most inaccurate. My friend and I found out that you could throw the thing vertically onto the asphalt towards each other and it would travel extremely fast allowing you to point your toe at it as if it were a soccer ball and pop it up 9 or so feet (I don't recommend this for it can blatantly wear down the rubber edge or break.) The point is though, that we did this a lot... slamming it down onto one of the hardest ground surfaces possible and never did it crack or fly any different than it had originally.
Aerobies Break EasyMay 29, 2004 I had an aerobie for a year and played with it a bunch and it was just fine. After a year's worth of abuse it got 2 cracks. I ordered a new one - after 20 throws it was cracked. What kinda product is that?
Beware - if you can even SEE a tree the aerobie will find it too. Not for small areas.
One ring to rule them all...November 26, 2003 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Yet again, man demonstrates his mastery over the laws of physics.
Sheathed in rubber, the Aerobie is a flat, flexible metal ring...simple, yet POWERFULLY aerodynamic. With a gentle toss, the Aerobie will soar many times farther than an ordinary flying disc. In fact, an able-bodied man can hurl the Aerobie dozens of yards with minimal effort.
The Aerobie can be flung two ways: the traditional, backhanded method, or a revolutionary outside-snap style. With either method, a quick wrist-flick is key to getting the Aerobie on a flat, steady trajectory.
Catching the Aerobie is a breeze (provided you're fast enough to get under it). You can snatch it out of the air like any Frisbee, or bravely plunge your arm through the hole in the center.
It's a great "Aerob"ic workout, too--trucking after the blasting thing when it goes off course will get your heart a'pumpin', believe you me.
The Aerobie is a hoot, but it's not weak-sister fun for any old chatchi...it takes skill and discipline. Are you man enough?
