I got them for my 7 year old and I to play around with. We had no boomerang experience. They work well. They are soft, so if they hit you, it wont hurt, and they are inexpensive, so if you lose one on the bathroom roof at the park (like we did today), it isnt devastating.
We brought them to a local park where we wowed the kids and adults by throwing these and making them return.
Helpful guide on throwing the boomerang included.
Make sure kids know to not throw toward people, and stand well away of structures it could get stuck on.
Pros: very light. Small hands can grab and throw.
No or little pain if you get hit, since they are so light. (I was hit in the face by a kid that didnt pay attention to not throwing it close to people. Wasnt fun, but left no mark).
Easy to adjust. They *are* foam, so they bend easily, and you can do a quick upward bend of one of the arms on the end 20% and it will return nicely.
Inexpensive. Losing one isnt bad.
Cons.
Easily bendable on accident. It's rather easy to accidentally contort it so it wont take correct flight path. Know the proper wing adjustments before you go or you'll be throwing something that will have a mind of own.
Very light. Wind will easily shift these guys and blow them off course.
Analysis: Recommended for a kids beginner boomerang when you arent sure if the kid will catch it, stick with throwing a boomerang hes been wanting for months, or accidentally throw it on the roof, these are super fun toys.
I am happy with this purchase.
