Special Note
Flight patterns may vary from boomerang to boomerang even within styles. All boomerangs have certain characteristics. e.g. some low fliers fly higher than others. All DGM boomerangs are carefully tuned to come back to you. If an individual boomerang has an interesting flight pattern, I tend to preserve it. Thus, every boomerang is unique and has its own personality!
Sunlight Caution
Even though the varathane used provides a high UV protection, these boomerangs should not be stored or left sitting in direct sunlight for more than 10 minutes to prevent warping. Also avoid storing your boomerang near a heat source since this may dry out the wood and protective coatings. This goes for boomerangs purchased to hang as wall decorations - hang them on a shady wal to prevent warping and fading the surface coating over timel.
How to Hold to Throw
My boomerangs should be held using a loose grip, with the black (back) side against the palm of your hand with the colored side visible, facing you. Grip loosely with your first three fingers (including your thumb). You want to be able to release it easily and effortlessly from your hand. The proper hold is similar to holding a baseball, as you raise your arm over your head to achieve a vertical shot. Vertical is the operative word here. Never throw your boomerang horizontally or you will send it on a roller coaster ride that could damage or even break it or hit an innocent bystander!
Where to Throw
The best place to throw your boomerang is in a spacious empty sports field, that has plenty of well kept grass and is free from puddles and potholes. It is best to throw well away from roads, trees, people, and animals.
Catching
The best way to protect your hands and your boomerang is to catch it by "sandwiching" it between your two palms as it approaches you. Remember to observe your boomerang - some hover in gently while others tend to whip in quickly and low to the ground (the Kamikaze and Superfly especially).
Custom Orders
I do not mass produce my boomerangs - each batch is a limited edition. However, if you would like to order one (or more) of my seven designs in custom colors or decorative accents, please contact me to discuss the details.
Fine Workmanship
I take pride in my work - you can rest assured that these boomerangs are completely Canadian made, by me! No corners have been cut, no person has been oppressed or taken advantage of, and with care, your boomerang will last a very long time!
Boomerang Selections
I offer six unique boomerang styles which range from Beginner to Advanced levels of throwing skill: The Ra, Classic, Teaser, Bandit Crane, Kamikaze, and Superfly. I also offer an unique showcase boomerang, the Batarang, which is not meant for throwing. (Hover your mouse over each image to view larger format).
RA
Beginner to Intermediate Skill Level
CLASSIC
Beginner to Intermediate Skill Level
TEASER
Beginner to Intermediate Skill Level
BANDIT CRANE
Beginner to Intermediate Skill Level
This boomerang has a standard flight pattern, is a high flier and has proven to be very popular. This is one of my larger boomerangs and is a wonderful hoverer. It can be a little harder to catch due to its larger size but its hover tendency makes it a softer return which balances things out, easing the catch. I usually recommend this boomerang for older teens and adults who can handle the larger size.
KAMIKAZE
Intermediate to Advanced Skill Level
This boomerang tends to be a low flier, so it is recommended that you have developed skill in throwing the other styles of boomerangs above so that you can control this one and prevent it from falling to the ground. It really is a superb boomerang in experienced hands, and tends to fly further than the Beginner to Intermediate boomerangs. This style comes in quickly and low to the ground, thus is harder to catch which demands more skill. Unlike the boomerang styles listed above, the Kamikaze does not usually hover down but sort of whips in, low to ground. You will need a lot of space to throw this boomerang and must possess accurate throwing skill, to prevent it from going out of control. This takes practice to master. It would be wise to warm up by throwing a less advanced style, then progress to this one. It's a great deal of fun once you've mastered it!
SUPERFLY
Intermediate to Advanced Skill Level
This boomerang tends to be a low flier but sometimes does rise up iin high flight depending on the wind conditions. This style flies for long distances, thus you need a lot of room. As with the Kamakaze, throwers should be more skilled to avoid damaging the boomerang or bystanders! This boomerang is very interesting to watch because of the shape and pattern. It is also much easier to catch compared with the Kamakaze.
BATARANG
This boomerang is not meant for throwing!
This boomerang was created strictly for showcasing - it makes a fantastic conversation piece for your wall, mantle or in a protective case. This boomerang has extremely sharp edges and is very difficult (and painful) to catch - if it hit anyone it could do severe damage! Not meant for people under 18 years old, nor is it meant to be a weapon.
