William Mark WM2001 X-Zylo Flying Gyroscope Ultra

This is by far one of my favorite outdoor toys! Flies super far and super fun to play with friends and family!

It definitely takes dedicated time and practice to get the ring to fly properly. But what in life that is worth doing doesn’t take time in practice? This is lots of fun and for people that like things that fly it’s a must, Kind of mindbending as to how well it works!

Fun alternative to a frisbee or football. With practice you can achieve great distance and beautiful spiraling arcs. You hold it like a football and wind up to throw it like a football but snap your wrist at the end. Also you need to aim straight at your target rather than aiming it up like a football. If you throw it up, it does not go far, similarly if you aim too low it goes straight into the ground. But once you get the hang of it it is very fun. When thrown correctly, it flies in a beautiful spinning spiral directly towards your target. Your arm will hurt though because you are using different muscles that you don't use everyday.

Not many people know what this item is but my husband who is now 45 has playing with this since he was a teenager. When him and his friends get together they bust out the xzylo. This thing can be thrown a far distance and it attracts people's curiosity. It's similar to a frisbee but much more easy to throw and can be thrown at a further distance. The only downfall is it can be fragile when transporting. We usually put a sock in the middle so it doesn't get crushed.

So my husband has been eyeing this products for years. Finally purchased for Christmas and he is extremely happy! Once you get the throw down, it can go really far. Would suggest going to a big open space to use it, but have had lots of fun throwing in groups. It's all in the flick of the wrist. Would definitely recommend!

really cool "frisbee". it takes some practice to be able to throw this accurately, but it flies amazingly far. whenever I take it to a park, somebody almost always comes by to check out what this thing is. compared to a "normal" frisbee, it feels fragile. the x-zylo is pretty thin and light, but I haven't had any problems with it so far.

I can remember making similar toys out of paper as a kid. This is much more durable and performs better. It didn't take very long to get the hang of this. If you can throw a football well, you will be able to throw this. I think it could be more difficult for those with smaller hands to do as well as those with larger hands. Following the included directions is important. It helps to aim down and left of the target and get some spin on it. Start close and practice, backing up as you improve. I caught a pocket of air with a throw that went the length of a football field. I accidentally hit a parked car, some trees, and had it skid across the asphalt plenty and it has held up. I finally lost it when someone threw it and it rolled into a street drain. I will purchase again.

Saw this on YouTube and found it reasonably priced here on Amazon. I was planning on buying it days before a family trip to the lake but it slipped my mind. Thankfully same day shipping was available and received it. It took a while to really learn how to throw it but when I did, this thing soared in the sky and landed about 100ft+ so it actually works. Totally recommend for outdoor use in a big area. Loads of fun.
