Default Snap roll a boomerang?

I've heard the the Boomerang shouldnt be snapped......is this an accurate statement? I'm not talking aboaut warp speed snaps, but some on the upline into a spin/tumble would be the plan.....

Default RE: Snap roll a boomerang?

Furlo,

If it shouldn't be snap rolled, Alan should take the 4 videos of Ali doing it numerous times off of his website. I snap mine quite a bit (again, not at warp speed) and I haven't noticed any additional wear and tear.

However, with something like that, I probably won't notice it until it is in 3 pieces.

Seriously though, Ali snaps both the Elan and XL in the Boomerang videos.
