Annotation: As part of this study, a comprehensive examination of the technique of performing a boomerang with a ribbon was conducted, particularly in synergy with a passé turn. The goal of this work was to optimize this element by analyzing its kinematic parameters. The current competition rules, which are valid from 2025 to 2028, evaluate a boomerang with a ribbon based on various criteria, including performance on the floor (0.3 points) and in the air (0.4.points). In rhythmic gymnastics, where each element requires impeccable execution, special attention should be given to the complex execution, particularly the combination of a boomerang with a ribbon and a passé turn. This synergy presents a challenging task that requires not only precise coordination and timing, but also a deep understanding of the laws of ribbon movement. To achieve this goal, a detailed analysis of the element’s kinematic parameters was conducted. Using the Kinovea program, which is widely used for video analysis, the following key characteristics were measured: the angle of the ribbon’s throw, which determines the initial direction of the object’s movement; the time it takes to reach its highest point, which characterizes the duration of the ribbon’s upward phase; the initial velocity, which sets the energy with which the ribbon leaves the athlete’s hand; the height of the ribbon’s flight, which represents the maximum vertical amplitude of the ribbon’s trajectory; and the distance traveled by the ribbon. Based on the analysis, practical recommendations for improving the technique have been developed: varying the throw angle depending on the speed and required height, focusing on increasing the flight time to achieve greater height, improving the throw technique to achieve a balance between speed and angle, and considering non-kinematic factors such as artistry and musicality. The study confirms that optimizing the synergy between a boomerang and a passé turn requires a comprehensive approach that involves not only physical training, but also precise trajectory calculations and execution.
