Do you have any TUG or bondage-related tips, tricks, or hacks that you can share related to either positions, gear, communication, or tying methods/techniques? There’s some things I’ve learned over the years that I wish I’d known much earlier that could have certainly helped. Off the top of my head, a couple that come to mind:
If you’re into leather gear and need a lot of small locks, buy a whole bunch that are keyed alike. Only having one key to unlock all your cuffs, collar, belts, and gag (and anything else you’’re bound in) makes getting out a much quicker and less frustrating (for everybody) process.
Relatedly, if you do end up buying keyed alike locks…you can purchase them online from a hardware or lock vendor that isn’t sex/bondage related. I’ve seen keyed-alike locks at online bondage retailers going for $10-$15 (US) a piece…whereas non-sex stores sell the exact same models for $2-$3. Since I’m using 15-20 at at time (bondage socks, ankle cuffs, thigh cuffs, wrist cuffs, elbow cuffs, locking mitts, collar, waist belt, hood, collar, gag)—this has saved me quite a small chunk of change.
If you like the security of handcuffs but find metal to be uncomfortable (especially for longer periods of time), perhaps look into buying either leather or neoprene cuff wraps. These use a hook-and-look (i.e., Velcro) fastener to secure around your wrists/ankles, then the handcuffs/legcuffs are secured around the leather/neoprene. I’ve got a pair of leather wraps that I purchased from Etsy a while back, and they’re incredibly comfortable. Since they feel like normal bondage cuffs (since they are), I can sleep comfortably with wrists and ankles bound without having metal dig into my skin. There’s also no red cuff marks to worry about either…which is nice. I’ve never used the neoprene versions, but these can be purchased online from stores that sell police/handcuff gear. Obviously, they’re for the same purpose and I can imagine they do a good job as well.
