prompt: Shorten this article to tell me the basics of how to throw a boomerang. 
  
  
  
  The curved or decorated side should be held towards you and the flat side away. The easiest way to grip the boomerang is to make a closed fist and insert the boomerang between the thumb and first finger. Make sure the boomerang is cocked back along your arm for maximum spin. The “elbow” can be pointing either forward or back as shown. see which grip suits you best.
   
  
  
  HOW TO THROW
  
  
  Throw with a normal over arm style facing 45 degrees to the right of the wind (to the left if you are left handed). Aim the boomerang at a point on or just above the horizon.
  
  
  
  ALLOWING FOR THE WIND
  
  
  Throw to the right of the wind about 45 degrees (to the left if you are left handed) so that the breeze helps the boomerang come back. By throwing from the same spot and aiming for an object in the distance, you can adjust the throw angle to the wind.
  
  
  
  This is very important. The boomerang should be nearly vertical on release. Increasing the tilt angle makes it fly higher and land further back. Holding it more vertically makes it fly lower and land further forward.
  
  
  Catch it between you hands in a clapping motion as shown here as it hovers down near you. Aim for the central section of the boomerang and avoid contacting the fast moving wing tips.
