Super Strap Ridden to Pleasure

This is a great toy for anyone, if you are new to pain play of a seasoned veteran, you will find this is to be an enjoyable tool. This tool can be used to discipline a wayward submissive or to get the attention of a pet-slave. This crop can be useful to enhance a session of pleasure pain, or by quickly moving it back and forth quickly between the legs of a submissive to convince her to open them wider.

This crop is a great tool for anyone who is of any experience level. The 22 1/2" sturdy handle and smaller striking surface make controlling the strikes very easy. Because the crop itself doesn't deliver a very painful bite, it is more of a light play toy by itself.

Since it does not come into contact with bodily fluids during normal play, it is play party friendly but because of the size and inflexibility of the handle it is not travel friendly.

The striking surface is very limited, the snap of a strike from this crop landing exactly where it is intended to land. If used on a "fresh surface" (meaning no welts, no redness from previous sessions, etc.) this is not made to draw blood or create its own welts. The size of the loop is also ideal for use on the breasts, from the top to the sensitive, tender underside of the swell of the breast, and even the tip of the nipple.

The loop of the leather strap creates a more sturdy striking surface, adding to the ability to control the effect of the crop's strikes. The leather strap delivers a sharp snap with a full force strike (like a towel snapping against the backside) and leaves a momentary sting after the strike. The crop itself has no smell and when a slave kisses the business end after a punishment has been delivered, it leaves no taste on the lips. The leather of the loop is soft and supple.

The 6" black rubber handle has no-slip nubs along the length for a comfortable grip for an average size hand. My Husband has used it many times and said it does not feel uncomfortable in His hand even after a few hours and using it on two different girls. The nubs along the handle prevent it from slipping when your hand begins to sweat. The only complaint is that there is no wrist strap to prevent it from flying across the room if you let go of it or want to check on the submissive you are using it on. This also prevents you from being able to hang it.

The detailed stitching where the handle and the leather loop meet shows pride in the craftsmanship of the tool. This is a sign that it is more likely to last a long time. This is one of the better quality crops I have seen in the 14 years I have been involved in this community. I have a feeling that, when I write a follow-up in a few months, I will still be impressed with the quality and the impact of this tool. There is almost no weight to the crop and it makes a nice swishing noise as it swings.

This toy met all of our expectations. The snap from the leather loop was a surprise when blindfolded and not expecting it. When my legs drifted closed during the session, the strikes of the crop on my inner, upper thighs reminded me very quickly to open them again.

They left a nice sting when used on my breasts and a pop on the nipple that sent me spiraling down the wonderful road to a powerful orgasm.

This crop will leave you red in the area it is used on, but will not leave welts or marks on its own. The snap it produces is closer to a thud against the skin.

This is a very easy to care for, and easy to keep clean. The rubber handle can be wiped down with rubbing alcohol if needed, and the leather loop does not need to be cleaned often. If it is used on the genitals, wiping it off with a slightly damp cloth with just a few drops of rubbing alcohol will work but only very sparingly so the leather does not degrade. If you do not break the skin or allow it to come into contact with the genitals, the only thing that needs to be done to care for this tool and keep it clean is to lightly dust it every so often.

We store this tool upright in a re-purposed umbrella urn with bamboo canes and spreader bars since there is no wrist strap. It fits nicely in the urn and does not take up space or get bent in the storage. If you do store this standing up, be sure to stand it on the handle end so the leather does not become dry, bent, or creased during storage.

This crop came in a clear plastic bag with only the company tag attached. The tag is about the size of an average garment price tag. There are no instructions or guidelines on the tag, it is just the company name, address, and the item name.

This crop can be stored in a drawer, if you need to keep it out of sight of prying eyes, or under the bed. If you are going to store it under the bed, just remember it is there and to grab it before you move, if someone is helping you move, before they discover it on their own. The last time I felt the bite of this crop, it was because I left it under the bed when my mother-in-law was helping us move and when the bed was lifted, the crop was right there in plain sight for her to see. After making my Husband answer questions from His mother, when we got home later, I felt the crop against my rear to remind me to not leave our tools where they can be discovered.

The long handle lends this crop to so many uses. This can even be used to convince two girls cuffed back to back to spread their legs more at the same time or, if both girls are blindfolded, the length of this crop opens a whole host of possibilities to surprise the submissives with strikes to either of them. Even while standing in front of one, it is easy to reach around and pop the other without her even knowing it.
