The Technic "Gecko" boomerang solves the problem so many young people have with throwing boomerangs....arm strength. It doesn't require an mlb pitcher's arm to throw it, or even a little league pitcher's arm. It is light weight and has a very high spin rate which is what quality boomerangs are all about. We actually design them to return. Imagine that! Honestly, if your boomerang doesn't have an airfoil, how can it possibly return and so many vendors sell V shaped sticks which they say return "every time" but do you really believe that? Lot's of people do until they buy them. All of our boomerangs have real airfoils and are designed to return. Don't blow it. Buy a real boomerang from Colorado Boomerangs!
