This very large traditional boomerang was made in 1973. It was made with very long blades to give it higher inertia and better wind resistance, thus the name "Windstick". This boomerang has the Burwell boomerang logo on the underside. There is a thick coating of high gloss varnish or polyurethane on the entire surface. The flight range is 25-35 metres. This boomerang is in excellent condition. This is a very rare and collectable Burwell boomerang.
