Volker Behrens is a well known commercial manufacturer of sporting and competition boomerang products. Volker was also a competitor and member of the German International Boomerang Team as well as a pioneer in the development of long distance boomerangs with demonstrated throws of nearly 150 metres in the 1980s. Volker continues to make high performance boomerang products. This includes boomerangs made out of Aircraft Grade plywood, Paxolin, G12, Carbon Fibre, Lap Joint Hardwoods and Strip Laminated Hardwoods.

This boomerang is a medium large strip laminated weighted hook, similar in design to Volker's famous Paxolin " Challenger III ", including the edge finger notches on the trailing edge of the dingle arm. This boomerang is laminated using thick Oak strips, similar to the construction method used by Al Gerhards. The dingle arm has a half lead weight added to the tip and the lift arm has 2 lead weights for the purpose of extending the flight range. The boomerang is signed on the underside, but it is not dated. It was made in the late 1980s. This boomerang is in mint condition, but it does have a small chip on the dingle arm trailing edge at the finger notch location. This does not affect the strength or performance for this fine example.
