Many meetings, competitions, exchanges and web sites ... make our planet boomerang live.

The diversity of shapes, materials, practices and approaches present the true richness of our sport.

If information exists and is exchanged, they are too often scattered and fragmented ...

"Boomerang Saga", the new book by Didier Bonin, gathers a lot of varied information explaining more than 50 years of boomerang history.

Mythical competition boomerangs, collector boomerangs, artistic boomerangs, natural elbows, portraits of launchers ... More than 400 very illustrated color pages detailing more than 50 years of boomerang history. This site shows only a few pages.

 

 



Some elements of content

- Generalities and shapes : to have in mind all the reflections and progress since the Theory of forms


- Artistic boomerangs and materials: to browse the magnificent creations of the launchers of the world and to admire dream materials (natural elbows, veneers, marquetry, composites ...)
 
 

- Competition boomerangs : fast-catch, aussie-round, accrobatic catches, distance... find the most efficient models in the various competition events and their evolution over time


- The creators and competitors : the "who's who" of the boomerang world to discover the "portraits in action" of the "characters" of the boom planet,

This book tells a great page of the boomerang story and presents many achievements. It would not have been possible without the many contributions of everyone involved. A big thank you for this spirit of sharing and exchange.
