ABSTRACT:
A flying disk which has a decorative member rotatably mounted in the top surface thereof and which is free to rotate relative to rotation of the flying disk as the flying disk is spins through the air about a central axis. In one embodiment, a hollow spherical member is mounted in a hole at the center of the flying disk member and is free to rotate about an axis which is parallel to the plane of the upper wall of the disk. Another embodiment mounts the spherical member so that it is free to rotate about the central axis of the flying disk. In another embodiment, the rotating member is a double truncated cone shape. The rotating members can have a smooth exterior surface or may have vanes projecting therefrom and/or openings, e.g., elongated slits or circular holes, therein, to impart spin to the rotating members during flight of the flying disk.
