Crops and canes are formidable implements of discipline and punishment
What sort of sensation are you looking for from your cane?
There are two sensations that describe caning: thuddy and stingy. Yet, there are variations within these categories, because as you change length and design you change the sensation. Whilst canes linked to a stinging sensation, a heavier and more rigid cane will deliver a heavy thud. The weight, length and diameter of the cane determines the resulting sensation – thicker, shorter and wider shafts deliver a deeper pain and thud against the skin. In contrast, the lighter, longer and more flexible shaft – the greater the sting.
Leather braided canes look the part and are an excellent choice for delivering severe corporal punishment, braided over a sturdy or flexible fiberglass.
Riding crop is another beast of a peculiar sort. They are playful tools to keep your partner ‘in line’ during foreplay with the lighter strokes. Riding crops vary in shafts flexibility. Consider a less flexible riding crop for a more sensual game or a more flexible one for a stingier sensation. As with most impact toys, you will want to take safety into consideration before striking your partner with a riding crop.
Always remember to take the health and safety precautions when using impact play implements:
- clean your equipment.
- do not use porous canes with multiple partners.
- hits should be parallel to one another (damage is more severe with crossed injuries).
- keep your first aid kit in easy reach, complete with latex gloves and antibacterial cleaner.
