  • Covered flying object
    Patent number: 5484159
    Abstract: A substantially flat, rigid flying object adapted for throwing. The object has a peripheral portion for gripping the object with a hand and launching the object through the air. The object also has an upper surface and a lower surface aerodynamically shaped to cause the object to fly when thrown. A layer of resilient material covers the upper surface and lower surface. The resilient material has a greater resiliency than the object to provide a cushioned grip.
