suspension

Postby tyman » Wed Oct 19, 2011 1:21 pm

I don't remember how old I was when I first saw a picture of a guy tied up and suspended upside down but it fascinated me. I tried to come up with a way to suspend myself but it was harder than I thought! I ended up tying my ankles in a rope cuff and basically did a handstand against the edge of an open door, hooking the rope cuff over the top of the door and hanging there. Looking back on it, it was wasn't the smartest self bondage I ever did because I could have been hurt in several ways. It also was not the most comfortable and I had some pretty good rope burns/bruises around my ankles. Has anyone done a safer, less painful form of self suspension?

I have made belt harnesses or rope harnesses from YouTube tutorials and hung myself on my door. Sometimes it's comfortable, other times it's not, but it's always a different experience.

I saw a harness the other day that you put on a closed door, but it definitely didn't look comfortable! lol!

When I was at university my room has a metal pole from floor to ceiling where I could pass a rope through a hole at top of the pole. I used a long and solid rope (6 meters) whose 2 extremities are dangling on the floor. So after using a solid leather belt to bind my ankles I tied one extremity of the rope around the belt and pulled on the other extremity : my ankles went up then my full body until I was suspended upside down with my hands on the floor, with my back against the pole. I fixed the rope to the bottom of the pole with a solid knot, then I turned myself chest to pole, seized little rope handcuffs, bound my hands in back and enjoyed ... about 15 to 20 minutes. The best self-bondage situation I ever try. Shorts, shirtless, bare feet, as usual ...

Nice, paugere! Ingenious way to do it. I imagine that pole came in very handy for bondage fun!

Yes, your ankles can quickly take a beating--or suffer blood loss or nerve damage. Better to use inversion boots and a chinning bar. Much more comfortable. It also helps to be able to withstand inversions by doing hatha yoga--headstand, etc.
