Over the years, batons have not changed much in size or shape. The ends of the baton are still rubber with a steel shaft in between. Little has been done to prevent the baton from slipping out of the twirler's fingers due to moisture or to keep the baton from rolling away when dropped. The primary essence of this patent is to reduce rolling action and bounce when dropped as well as slippage due moisture. This patent introduces a newly designed ball and tip that is in the general shape of a tetrahedron that transitions into a frustum shape that connects the ends to the shaft. The functional shape of baton ends appears to be an equilateral triangle when viewed looking down the axis of the baton shaft. The effect of this design is that three flat surfaces on each end of the baton are oriented so that the flats are in the same plane with each other, which creates resistance to rolling. A non-slip surface has also been created in the center of the baton to reduce the tendency of the baton to slip in wet conditions but will not harm the twirlers fingers. Low resilient synthetic rubber ends have as well been incorporated into the design to diminish the bounce effect when dropped.

A soft spinning game disc with two generally circular fabric sheets connected at their peripheries by a circular cord. A central flexible cord interior to said peripheral cord defining a central area of reduced thickness and an annular area between the cords. Batting material is positioned intermediate the cords in the annular area therebetween, and a plurality of weights are circumferentially distributed in the annular area.

A toy for throwing, bouncing, and catching has a cylindrical padded hand gripped rod, which extends at each end to and partially into respective high bounce balls. The balls each have a cylindrical recess with a respective clearance tapered entry, formed from a previous spherical portion of a high bounce ball, or so directly formed upon molding the initial form of the respective high bounce ball. Such clearance tapered entry of each high bounce ball improves the recovery of each ball during and after being impacted under striking load conditions, and thereby improves the longevity of the high bounce balls and the overall toy. A padded sleeve conforming to the hand gripped cylindrical rod has tapered ends to also provide clearances, where the padded hand gripped rod meets the high bounce balls, to likewise improve the longevity of the overall toy.

A toy comprising a hollow member and a rod for operating the hollow member. The hollow member has an opening at one of two ends thereof, a smooth circular boundary edge at said one end at the inside of the opening, a spherical rotationally symmetrical surface on its outside at its other end, the axis of symmetry of said surface being coaxial relative to the upper smooth circular boundary edge. Furthermore the toy has a circular annular guide surface disposed within the hollow member adjacent said other end thereof, said guide surface being coaxial with respect to said axis. The toy might have a flange-like edge portion and vanes which extend radially and which are inclined relative to a plane extending normal to an axis of rotation of the member.

A twirling baton with a handle mounted on an axis extending perpendicular to the axis of the baton shaft by which the baton may be twirled with minimal effort, said handle being equipped with braking means to quickly stop the rotation of the baton when desired.
