Boomerang is not a simple toy. Training will allow you to understand the different types and practices of boomerang: precision, speed, stamina, MTA maximum time aloft …
Boomerang is different from throwing sticks which were used in primitive societies for hunting. Boomerang is just the fun evolution of these sticks.
According to the different types of boomerang (bi-blade, tri-blade, four-blade), their materials (wood, composite, carbon, foam) and their shapes, they require different throwing technics, with few or no wind.
