Don, I'm so glad you have Nimbus!  You are of course free to enjoy that top in whichever way you see fit.  Hopefully those that want to play with something similar will get a chance soon.  Also, if some part of that top fails in some way, I want to know, and I want to fix it.  The PVC will nick and scuff easy but should never split.  It is intended to wear its marks well, like a Watts  ;D

If you watch the second video I posted, you'll see that I use the thick rope for the throwing and the thin rope for playing:



Throw it tip away a little bit, and you have to be a little agressive on the pull back for a boomerang.  Try a throw to the ground first, it's a long rope so aim a little farther away from you than normal... Unless you use long ropes normally of course  ;D

Chris, Thanks for the plug for Watts' Tops.  They do take a beating and still hold up very well with the battle scars.   :)

Thanks!  It may take a little practice, but I think I can master that!  :-\ ;) ;D ???
