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.

Happy New Year!

--by phnxhawk--

In the spirit of ringing in the new calendar year, I thought it would be nice to go back to our roots and post another "fun with boomerangs" type of video. In fact, it is not unlike the "Dual Diabolino" video with which we started our 2011 run. It would have been awesome if we three were throwing Eric Darnell Tri Flys so that I would have an excuse for a "punny" title, but this will simply have to do. On our last throwing session of the year, Charles, Manny and I decided to go back to basics and break out the Eric Darnell Pro Flys. Of course, in our case, old boomerangs simply beget fresh antics. For some of our thoughts on the Pro Fly, check out our first Ask aLAcrity.


Happy holidays, everyone!
