Abstract
A badminton shuttlecock-type article of manufacture used primarily as a throwing toy against a wall having a novel 'flip' during rebounding caused by a rubber ball front, in which distortion of the rubber ball upon impact against the wall is confined to the rubber ball surface making contact, and this increases the flight of the rebound to an extent that the challenge of catching the toy on the rebound is part of its play value.
