@Kahrin

you always have amazing music recommendations, our team spotify playlist is on regular cycle for my commute 

That being said I do believe the for some people a TK just isnt suitable but often times they aren't taught with the anatomy in mind and focus more on the pattern of the rope not the body of the person being tied. Positions need to be sustainable without the rope, its job in a TK is to hold the body in place not force the position. I'm also going to take the opportunity to plug Fuoco book Put Me In a Box. Its possibly one of the most comprehensive guides on body positioning as is pertains to TK's so definitely worth checking outPhysical: https://www.cuttheleash.com/shop/p/put-me-in-a-box-a-bottom-centric-guide-to-box-ties-in-the-style-of-choose-your-own-adventure Digital: https://www.cuttheleash.com/shop/p/put-me-in-a-box-digital

I can totally relate to challenges with TK's. For the first few years of tying my partner and I avoided them at all costs, partly due to being a bit afraid of them, partly because my partner is self employed and needs her hands to work (she actually has them insured for a pretty sizable amount against any injuries).What finally turned the corner for us was to get some private tuition and focus solely on working out whether TK's were just something we couldnt do or whether there was an opportunity to tie them better and more sustainable for my partner. Needless to say 3 years later we predominately tie TK's now and it was very much something we were able to conquer. In our case a lot of the learning was actually in the body mechanics, it was very much about the initial placement of the arms, how we got into position and what position worked for my partner.

Mills gotta make sure your piñata is secure before you hit it. Whether candy filled or human... safety first

Was the piñata a hunan piñata or the candy filled kind. Im wondering what kind of birthday party this was 😆

I've used that quick cuff quite alot since you showed me back in '21, remarkable how fast it can be applied for takedown style play
