ABSTRACT:
A lightweight, one piece throwing toy is disclosed which, when thrown, provides a unique pattern of flight. The toy is provided with a pair of wing sections joined together by a throwing section. Each wing section is constructed to be of similar length and cross-sectional dimensions. The cross section of each wing section is of greater width than depth. The grasping section is of a different and preferably smaller cross section than the wing sections, and is of a shorter length than either of the wing sections. The toy is thrown so that it remains parallel to the ground and rotates as it leaves a person's hand. The tumbling motions enable the toy to circle, lift or drop as it flies through the air, thereby permitting use either individually or with a partner.
