Flexi-Frisbee Reviews
Flexi-Frisbee is a toy by Wham-O which takes the basic premise of a classic Frisbee and integrates it into a soft-material design. Unlike a regular Frisbee, which is typically made of a hard plastic, Flex-Frisbee sports a parachute material around a bendable rim.
The design is somewhat similar to that of Hyper Disc, which uses a foil material over a flexible rim. Flexi-Frisbee, however, is smaller and more compact which lends itself to easier portability. It can be used indoors without damaging walls or other items, although it could still knock over items such as a vase or lamp.
Flexi-Frisbee can be thrown for long distances, thanks to its lightweight material combined with a sturdy rim. We found that in some cases it tended to fly “sideways” although this could be more of a matter of throwing technique. The soft edge of the toy is a feature that cannot be understated, especially with younger children. Anyone who has been smacked in the face by a hard Frisbee will appreciate the delicate material used in this product.
The softness, however, could be a double-edged sword. While a hard plastic Frisbee is durable enough to last years, Flexi-Frisbee will require more delicate handling in order to last. It probably isn’t suited for pets, nor would it be advisable to use in a harsh terrain where the material could be degraded.
Because of its soft design, younger kids can throw Flexi Frisbee more adeptly than that of a regular hard Frisbee.
At a price of $10 for three, Flexi-Frisbee is competitively priced. We have yet to see it in stores, although this seems to be a certainty based on the Wham-O name attached to it. If you’ve seen it in stores, drop us a comment below.
