Product Description
Colorado Boomerangs has a 25 year history of hand crafting quality boomerang products. Our boomerangs are light enough and aerodynamic enough for great returns. We use the best materials and airfoils designed over many years of tests. Boomerangs are like little airplane wings. They need to "fly" and being light and small is GOOD when your 8 year old is the thrower. Our plastic boomerangs have custom molded airfoils while many "boomerang" products you find elsewhere do not have proper airfoils at all. Without proper airfoils, a boomerang cannot return or even turn. We are trying to educate people on the need to look at boomerangs as precision aerodynamic objects. So buying from a reputable company is important.
A real boomerang is usually light weight and probably smaller than you anticipate, and it does take practice and some arm strength to throw boomerangs successfully. We offer you everything you need to be successful. Help your child throw and learn about boomerangs together. It makes a huge difference.
Boomerangs for 5-7 Year olds
Little kids need a very light, safe boomerang. Remember, YOU are the target. A good boomerang actually works and will come back at you. Light foam boomerangs like these Indoor Boomerangs are great for little kids 5-7 years old.
Boomerangs for 7-13 year olds
You can't go wrong with a great foam boomerang for kids. They are safe, extremely fun and a boomerang like the Sharkrang can be thrown and caught by most kids above 7 years old.
Boomerangs for Teenagers
An average teenage boy who has played at least some baseball or football can usually throw and catch a conventional boomerang after some practice. It is a learned skill, similar to golf. Small adjustments in the throw can bring improved thrower precision.
Competition Boomerangs for Adults
Competition boomerangs are generally a little heavier and often faster than a boomerang for a child. A lot of teenagers compete in boomerang competitions but these boomerangs are generally for at least 13 and above ages.

Suggest that you fling it away from the house. Got it stuck on the roof a few times.
My son, who is 11 years old, has a hard time getting this boomerang to come back to him. He didn't have any problem at all with the cheap "classic" style boomerang. I'll probably have to order one of that style now.
(1) Use a 45° layover in relatively low wind conditions
(2) Throw about 45° to the right of the wind direction
(3) Use a decent amount of force and maximize spin which is relatively easy to generate with this rang
(4) I also played around with positive dihedral (bending arm up) and positive angle of attack (counter-clockwise twist of arm ends)
The layover angle, spin and dihedral/angle of attack are perhaps the most critical. This rang does a 25-yard elliptical loop climbing into the air and coming back to you with a gentle hover to easily catch :-)
A great rang for beginners!
