Wow!  :o  I have some (bloody) experience with spiked tops, so I am impressed of your confidence in throwing the boomerang through the door in that confined space.  And I really like the shape of the large red spike, very unique.

When I read the title I thought that you were posting an entry for the funny video contest.  But no, it was a scary one!

Hi all

some hints on this crazy video
the current problem is the tangle factor : the "spikes " shouldn't be too close to each other , otherwise .....you know what i mean , don't stay near dog cat kid or light bulb (or wife).. ;D
the so-called "spikes" are in fact accessories for leather belts , wrist bands etc they have a built-in 3mm thread so it's easy to use...the tips are not pointy
well all in all what i really dig  was to turn this curvy shape , to braid a string thick enough and to train for 30mn in the -2 parking on a tuesday night: no gloves, but a carpet on the floor :D
after that, one shot one vid no edit: the ol'kool way
