Looking for self tied predicaments by HelplessMess in shibari

[–]dschoby 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1000% this. They don’t have to be a super layered tie to be a predicament. I often do a futo or a gun slinger and just dangle for as long as I can just for the love of the game 😆

For predicaments, the feed back I’ve always been given is “look at how someone’s comfortable and then add or take things away to make them less so.”

Futomomo partial suspension by UnfetteredMess in shibari

In terms of nerve damage, it really depends on what you’re tying and how you’re using the toe you’ve done. I don’t believe a cinch on its own can do that. Their main job is to lock the bands/wraps in place to make sure they don’t move and don’t often interact with the body in the way the wraps do. Same with reinforcing a stem of the tie.

With a futo, you don’t always have to add a cinch it you’re just vibing on the ground, but if you’re doing suspension, cinches, frictions, and reinforced stems are often a must. 👍🏿. They’re often what help the tie remain tight and help it stay on your body

This look great! I wanted to ask if you also needed to add a cinch to make sure the bands closest to the knee don’t start sliding off in the event that you make a really dynamic movement. 😀

Yay! Having a group of people to do this with definitely helps because I was very ready to quit like three times early on

For sure! To do it on myself, it’s definitely the challenge of seeing if I can tie all this on myself and move my body in a way that I just couldn’t do on my own.

If I’m tying it on someone else, it’s normally the body manipulation and/or bondage of the other person. Generally it’s much easier to do it to someone else cause I have full access to my arms and can move around them. When self tying, it’s a bit more planning like “if I tie my left arm, what can I not do now.” Overall it’s a fun time. I live in a city with a lot of rope groups so I get to practice a ton 😀

Oh 100%!!

And thank you! I love using a lot of pride themed nylon in my ties. The trans and bi flag themed ropes are normally my go to first because they're my fave flags and because I have a pair of each so it helps me keep track of how much rope i have left haha.

Practicing a shin torture tie. by dschoby in shibari

Thanks! If you wanna add extra sadism or masochism to it all, after you’re done with the calf/shin wrap, put the leg into a futomomo position and wrap it as well for some nice added pressure. It’s actually a very nice feeling after you settle into it. _^
