ABSTRACT:
A flexible flying disc having a first rim member and a panel substantially covering the rim member. The first rim member and the panel may be twisted and folded to substantially reduce the size of the flying disc. In a separate embodiment, the flying disc may further include a second rim member and a collar encompassing the first rim member and the panel, with the collar attached between the first and second rim members. The first and second rim members are disposed in different elevational planes but parallel to each other so that the collar is disposed at an angle, thereby creating a domed structure. Mesh portions and openings may be provided in the panel to allow air to pass therethrough during flight. The first and second rim members, the panel and the collar may also be twisted and folded to substantially reduce the size of the flying disc.
