A closer look to a hovering MTA Boomerang Lift Let´s start with the basics: a boomerang wing, like an airplane wing, can generate lift as it moves through air, or, equivalently, as air streams around it. Lift depends on the pressure difference between the top and the...

Maximum Time Aloft MTA boomerangs are very popular in todays boomerang scene, their flight is spectacular, and its throwing reacquires a deputed technique. Seeds and fire The history of hovering MTA ́s leads to aboriginals, which used to craft small boomerangs made...
