Abstract
Let K be an unknot in 8-bridge position in the 3-sphere. We give an example of a pair of weak reducing disks D1 and D2 for K such that both disks obtained from Di (i = 1, 2) by a surgery along any outermost disk in D3-i, cut off by an outermost arc of Di D3-i in D3-i, are not weak reducing disks, i.e. the property of weak reducibility of compressing disks is not preserved by a disk surgery.
