Good value. Worth approximately $30 to $35, if purchased separately.

Each is sufficiently different from the other to make the purchase worthwhile:

- 10" ring. Plays more-or-less like a regular frisbee. For my family outings, this is the one that gets the most play.

- 13" Pro ring. Great for getting a "wow" reaction on how far it flies. Needs much more area to fly than the 10" ring. Not suitable for flying next to areas where retrieval would be difficult. Also, it has significant heft to it. I would advise against playing with children under 8 years old. (Between 8 to 10 years old, I'd suggest parents use judgment on whether their child is up to the challenge of heaving one of these disks.)

- Orbiter Boomerang. This is a very challenging flyer. My favorite technique is to stand on the side of a good-sized hill and toss it DOWN the hill. If done right, the Orbiter pancakes just above the bottom of the hill, rockets up to the sky like a banshee, then sweeps across the sky in a broad arc back to me, coming to rest at my feet.

As others have mentioned, these items sink - so stay away from large bodies of water ... or be prepared to go for a swim.

And, obviously, you'll need a lot of space to fly the Pro ring and the even more space for the Orbiter. If you don't have at least 150 feet length-wise to play with the Pro ring or at least 2 acres of open area to play the Orbiter, then I would stick to playing with the 10" ring. (An errant throw with the Pro ring or Orbiter will easily go beyond smaller areas.)

The boomerang is a little hard to figure out but these frisbees are amazing! Even my three year old can throw them :)

I play with kids in our apartment building and they dont get hurt when hit with it. It's soft and light. Boomerang does go over high so it went over some high fence and lost it. But everything is fine and fun.
