Australia, other than surfing, 'stubbies', barbies and getting your leg torn
off by a shark, is famous for its wooden Frisbee variant. The boomerang must
rank among their finest hours. Now usually it's the good ol' poms that come up
with the ingenious ideas, only to see a factory in the far east churn out the
same design at a fraction of the cost.
In this case, however, the Brits have actually managed to make an original
design ten time better. The 3-bladed Backyard Magic Boomerang offers better
stability and is easier to master than traditional boomers.
In this great country, we're packed like sardines into a relatively small area,
which means that back gardens tend to be smaller than the acres they have over
in Oz. So what's needed is a boomerang that's not going to disappear into the
sunset every time you give it a good throw.
Cleverly, the Backyard model uses denser foam than the standard models, meaning
it has a shorter range and therefore won't disappear off into the neighbours
garden, knock down his satellite dish, get embedded in a tree or have the
neighbours dog chewing it to bits within seconds. In short, if you just want a
quick chuck around in the back garden, this is the boomerang for you.
It's also worth noting that the Backyard Magic is actually an indoor boomerang that
can be safely and easily thrown around inside a lounge room or family room, and it's soft foam
construction makes it an ideal toy for kids (although adults love it too!)
