The Frisbee

The flying disk is a disk shaped object that is generally made of hard plastic and measures 20-25 centimeters in diameter. The edges are curved in-ward to make the dick easier to throw and catch. The shape of the disk, an air foil in cross section, allows the disk to fly by generating lift as it rotates and movers through the air. The term "Frisbee" is what most people use to describe a flying disk because it was the first disk on the market and the name just stuck.

The fad of the flying disk began with collage students at Yale tossing around old pie plates. In late 1955 a toy company called "Wham-O" made the first official flying disk and called it the Pluto Plater. It was not until 1964 that they changed the name to the Frisbee. Wham-O made millions of dollars off his Frisbee and it is a toy that is still loved and enjoyed by millions to this day.

I love playing Frisbee and ultament Frisbee. It is tons of fun and is really starting to get popular. It is the perfect thing to do on the beach, in between swimming and nothing.
