12740089, Have you seen anyone playing with a Boomerang since the 90's?

I actually had one. This was around 1986 My parents went to Austraila for their wedding anniversary. I was so excited. I think I was in 4th or 5th grade. Anyhoo I went outside and threw that shit. It basically went straight ahead and didn't come back. I was like, "there must be a special way to throw this" and tossed it again. This time it curved a bit and went right into the upper branches of a tree. Never saw it again.
It didn't work.

They work, but it's hard to throw them properly. The best I could get was making it come back and land about 10 feet in front of me. I think you have to throw it a lot harder than my 8 year old self was capable.
