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.

Introducing a New Contributor

--by phnxhawk--

Perhaps some of you who are still sticking with us noticed already, but we have added a new contributor to the aLAcrity blog!

His user handle is hey_kuya. We met him in November after being introduced by Rich Harrison, the Boomerang Man. We've met up a couple times since then to throw boomerangs together. Manny used to say that I have a substantial collection, but hey_kuya definitely puts mine to shame. He has a terrific collection of 'rangs and a solid base of experience in throwing. He seems to be a swell guy, and we're looking forward to having some great boomerang-throwing fun together. Perhaps we will also see some content from him in the future.

Soyez le bienvenu!


In other news, Manny and I have some content in the pipeline, so please look forward to posts from us in the near future! As often happens, progress happens in fits and starts. So, please bear with us.
