Just taking a few minutes to let everyone know we're still alive and throwing out here in Los Angeles. Changing work situations have made it difficult for all of us to invest time in blogging during recent months. (In fact, I am still hassling Manny about this one post he started writing last year....) Anyway, I'm hopeful that things will return to something resembling normalcy in the back half of 2013. (Not that I consider hope to be a strategy on its own!)
And now for something boomerang related....What have I been throwing lately?
Nothing too out of the ordinary, actually. Rainier is still my go-to warm-up boomerang, and it doubles as my Ol' Reliable in closed-in parks. Other than that, I have been rotating through all my boomerangs--regardless of whether I purchased or carved them--as wind conditions permit.
I also picked up from The Boomerang Man a couple of Spinracers in ABS and carbon. I took them out for some maiden throws the other day, and they worked great out of the box. I can get good flights using the ABS version with a light throw and decent spin, which I anticipate will make it a good demo 'rang for inquiring passers-by. The carbon version needs a slightly harder throw, but not too much more.
