Welcome to Boomtown!

aLAcrity Boomerangs is a group of boomerang enthusiasts from Los Angeles. At the moment, it is comprised of three people: Manny (a.k.a. v12aero), phnxhawk and Charles (a.k.a. hey_kuya).

Manny and I (phnxhawk) started this blog to share our interest in boomerangs--throwing and tuning, making our own rangs, as well as unraveling the science behind them. As we continue our journey into the world of boomerangs, we hope to make new friends and to expand our horizons. In this blog, we will post such things as videos from our regular throwing sessions, musings and lessons learned from throwing, and thoughts on making our own rangs.

Manny and I started throwing boomerangs since Spring 2009. It has been a long road as we developed a semblance of technique for throwing 'rangs. Nevertheless, after many a bruised hand or windy day, our fascination with these returning throwing sticks remains undimmed. We most certainly have more to learn about boomerangs, but we'll keep at it as long as we continue to have many happy returns.

New Practice Clips Video

--By phnxhawk--

It has been business as usual for aLAcrity.  The winds the past two weekends have been weaker and more finicky than in the summertime.  Weather in Los Angeles has been capricious lately: record highs one week, but damp and dreary the next.  Although this hasn't stopped us from throwing rangs, it has added some frustration, as it has been difficult to settle into a rhythm while out on the sand.

We have three new booms coming in this week, so stay tuned.  We'll probably post some initial thoughts once we've given them a test drive.

We also have a couple new videos posted on our Youtube channel, though.  The first is another compilation of miscellaneous clips taken from boomerang throwing outings the past couple weeks.




Stay tuned for the second video!
