Strip Laminated Omega [TB444]

This attractive omega was made out of Elm and White Oak
strips in 2006. The inner most ply on the tips appears to be
Walnut. It is a really nice flyer ( I did test it several
times. ) with a flight range of 50 metres. The boomerang is
signed and dated 2006. It is in new condition. A wonderful
collectible and a fantastic flyer as well. Specifications: Right Handed ; Tip-to-tip Span = 44
cm ; Weight = 124 gm John Cryderman (from Chatham, Canada) is well known for
making high quality strip laminated and Birch plywood
boomerangs. Many of these are John’s original designs.
However, he occasionally makes replicas of boomerangs made
by other famous boom makers, such as the strip laminated
hooks and omegas made by Al Gerhards of Downington,
Pennsylvania. John usually makes his strip laminated
boomerangs out of native Canadian hardwoods, but he will
often use exotic woods, such as Mahogany and Ebony. Some of
the plywood and strip laminated boomerangs are decorated
with inlaid plugs of exotic woods arranged in pseudo-floral
patterns. The vast majority of John’s boomerangs are large
in size and they require a strong thrower in order for the
boomerang to make a full return.
