The Fizzy is a really great beginner boomerang boomerang. Based on the German design Fuzzy, which was originally a 5mm thick fast catch boomerang, this is a reversed, stylized version in 4mm 8 ply birch plywood. It is very easy to throw and catch and has a lot of hover at the end of the flight. I like the stylized curves it has and have found it to be fun to toss in smaller spaces. It is ideal in teaching students how to throw. The Fizzy 4 has a range of 20 meters and is priced at $13.99
Availability: Spring 2012

The Omni is an omega shaped boomerang that has a lot of range (30+ meters) for a small package. Because it is made of polycycarbonate and can handle lots of abuse and it is great when throwing in less than ideal conditions (wet grass, gravel, dirt, etc.). It requires a slight harder thrown and more spin, but is a great little boomerang.It has a wing span of 11.75" and is priced at $13.99
Availability: Right Hand only, LH on request |

This is the Leo a shape by Leo Junior in Brazil. Leo sent me the pattern for this boomerang and asked me to cut him some polycarbonate blanks to send him. I liked how it performed and he is allowing me to use the design. It is quite a performer for a small boomerang. The boomerang range is 40-45 metres. It requires a harder thrown and more spin than plywood boomerangs.I have been painting this with a translucent pain and they look really great in bright sunlight.This boomerang is priced at $13.99
Availability: 3 right hand |

This boomerang is the Beagle and is currently the longest range boomerang I sell. I have been working with this shape in several materials and different weights. Currently I have some weighted ones available that have the range of 40-45 meters. This boomerang is not very difficult to use for an experienced boomerang enthusiast. It takes a fairly hard toss, with a plenty of spin. It is made from 5 ply 1/4 inch birch plywood and has a penny imbedded in each wing on the underside. It has a wingspan of 13 inches and sells for $14.99. Colors and patterns will vary. This is a great returning boomerang which will give you hours of fun. Availability Right hand only, Left hand by request.
I also have a few unweighted ones available. Range is 30-35 meters, easier to throw. Right hand only, $14.99 each

Please treat boomerangs with care and respect. Boomerangs are fun but can cause damage or injury if handled incorrectly. You the buyer must accept all responsibility for the boomerang and its flight. Have fun but always use caution and common sense.

Long Distance Boomerangs
Due to demand, I'll be selling Long Distance boomerangs starting in spring 2012. These tend to sell out quickly when I get some made. If you are interested in any, you can email me to get on the waiting list to get one as soon as it is available.
Note: Long Distance boomerangs require more attention to safety than normal boomerangs. They are thin, with sharper airfoils which can cause injury. They sometimes disappear from view, so keep your guard up. Also, make sure no one is anywhere near you when you are throwing. These boomerangs travel long distances and you must be aware of anyone who could potentially be in the flight path.
