What's the best "Frisbee" these days?

Heading to the coast tomorrow and hoping to pick up a Frisbee but I want something good. Last time I shopped for one (probably 10 years ago), the round, ring-style Aerobie was the cream of the crop. Anything else out there, by them or another company, that's really cool? Looking for something that's easy to throw, lots of distance and not overly affected by wind. And under $25 would be nice.

Get an Ultimate Frisbee disk. They fit your criteria, plus you can turn them over and they'll hold the contents of a pitcher of beer!

I remember back in the early 90's we had an aerobie we took to a school trip and we had a blast with it. It was in a whole different league distance wise, allowing people who did not have the practice with a regular frisbee to make long throws. (They had to work on accuracy of course)

Yeah, the original Aerobie Pro Ring is still phenomonal and I'm leaning towards just picking up another one of those. But I wasn't sure if maybe something better had come out in recent years.

We actually lost ours over a cliff into lake Michigan, and had to go buy another.
(sometimes it can go too far!)

And they do sink!

Back then whenever we were playing with one, since it was still relatively unknown, people would just watch in awe at how far it went compared to a frisbee.
