Boomerang Instructions

Oz Boomerangs specialize in sports boomerangs designed to be thrown and caught.

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY

SAFETY

Never throw in windy conditions.
Find a sheltered area, clear of people, objects and trees with at least a 50-meter radius for the Aussie Magic and 10-meter radius for the Aussie Superangs. Ensure throwing instructions are understood!

TIPS

**Throw gently at first

**Never throw sidearm.

**Flies best in little or no wind.

**Awareness of wind essential.  

 

THE GRIP

Hold the boomerang near the tip with the flat side away from you. Grip the boomerang with a pinch grip.

THE AIM

Face the breeze, now aim at 45degrees to the right (for right handed thrower) or left(for left handed thrower) of the breeze and just above the horizon.

THE THROW

      

NEVER LAID OVER FLAT

The boomerang should be thrown about 10 degrees off the vertical.

Throw it forwards and upwards like a DART towards the horizon, using a fast spinning vertical motion.

Use a snap of the wrist, spin counts more than power!!

THE CATCH

Thown correctly, the boomerang will return to the thrower from the left side (for right handed boomerangs) or right side (for left handed boomerangs). Aiming for the middle as it hovers down, clap hands together catching the boomerang!
