A flying saucer capable of skipping on fluids is provided. The flying saucer includes a conventional flying saucer disk having a substantially circular dome-shaped body and downwardly extending rim at the periphery of the body. A substantially circular insert is positioned inside the rim proximate the interior surface of the dome-shaped body. The insert has a lower surface substantially flush with the lowest edge of said rim and the lower surface of the insert is provided with at least one recess which may be grasped to facilitate throwing the saucer. When the insert strikes a fluid surface such as water or snow as the saucer lands, the saucer skips on the fluid surface.

A flying saucer comprising, in combination, a disk, said disk including a substantially circular dome-shaped body and a downwardly extending rim substantially at the periphery of said body, said rim defining a downwardly extending edge, said body being defined by an exterior surface extending exteriorly of said edge and an interior surface extending interiorly of said edge, and a substantially circular insert positioned inside said rim proximate said interior surface, said insert having an upper surface proximate said interior surface, a disk skipping lower surface opposite said upper surface and an edge surface connecting the peripheries of said upper and lower surfaces, said insert being made of a light weight substantially rigid material, said insert edge surface being positioned proximate said disk interior surface adjacent said downwardly extending rim whereby said rim presses against said insert edge surface so as to retain said insert in said disk, said insert disc skipping lower surface periphery being positioned proximate said disk edge so as to substantially cover the entire circular area bounded by said circular edge so as to form a disk skipping surface proximate said edge whereby when said disk is thrown so as to land on a fluid surface said insert disk skipping lower surface strikes said fluid, causing said disk and said insert to skip on said fluid surface.
