The 1999 World Record was set by Swiss Manuel Shutz, with a distance of 238m out and 238 m back. Every credit must go to the younger and newer throwers who compete in boomerang events with such skill and sporting enthusiasm. However we run a special version of events that show more result for their efforts. This version now runs alongside the 'regular rules' in the middle of each event, being virtually identical but more rewarding. Take the time to collect 10 points.
Endurance Use the same idea as above so each catch or throw is worth a point.
Count the number of points in 5 minutes. Inside the 20m is then worth 2 points. As in the adult version, some points for a catch or accuracy are needed to be able to count distance points. On events covering more than one day, night throwing is often done by those with energy to burn late at night, using luminous boomerangs or ones with lights attached. This is usually a spectacular sight.
