A game puck including a puck body having a plurality of throughbores radially disposed therein, each receiving a diagonally split glide pin. The glide pins each have heads which protrude from each face of the puck. Each pin has a diagonally split shank defining a plurality of mating teeth and a predetermined total shank diameter when joined. Each component of the pin has an inclined toothed or serrated surface which mates with a like component, each component having a tip diameter which is substantially less than one-half of the diameter of the total shank diameter. The shank diameter when joined is less than or equal to the throughbore diameter. The shank when joined defines an engaged section having a diameter slightly greater than the throughbore diameter. Each glide pin is capable of being vertically displaced under applied pressure and collectively act as a shock absorber to dampen the fall of the puck during play.
