I am like you, i love to be flogged. I have recently found that i absolutely love dragon tails as well depending on how they are used. The only one i have experienced was leather. I am not brave enough to venture out to cable ones and honestly im abit to scared for those. Im sure there are different materials such as suede or leather that you can use. Its alittle different effect thana flogger. It has more of a sting to it, but like i said it all depends on how its used.

As for as finding one or making one, im not sure. I have been looking for one for awhile now and havent found one that i truly like yet. It would be interesting to see what others have to say about things too. 🙂

Ahh, i understand. You might want to look up cat-o-nine tails and canes. Cat-o-nine tails are simular to floggers but less straps and more cable like. I havent tried those yet, thats on my to do list. Lol good luck on your search! Sounds like alot of fun!

If you have a bit of experience and know what you are looking for buying online is fine. If this is your first time buying a flogger you should use caution online shopping as many large commercial sites stock the same mass produced in foreign places stuff. However, there are plenty of flogger makers here on fet and many of us have our own websites or sell our wares on ETSY of other places.

If you don’t have a lot of experience wielding floggers it can be hard to know what size/length you will be comfortable with, if you can make it out to an event with vendors I would recommend it highly as it can be very helpful to pick up handle and swing a variety of things to figure out what you like.

If you have any specific questions feel free to email me.

If you can find someone close to you, then that is always best. If you can’t find someone then try locating an event with venders nearby and visit them. Most will be glad to talk with you to help you get what you are looking for and even suggest materials and lengths of falls and handles. Buying in person offers you the advantage of being able to use it on your own bared arm or leg before purchasing, which is rather difficult to do on line.

It is the same with floggers, The educate is that one flogger should be for one person. But rarely in a bar scene is it the case. I myself have used the same gloves publicly for now 9 years But, I have a alcohol spray, wash my leather lightly with dextrous soap, a hospital only acquirable substance. BUT, still I have contracted MRSA from a open zit on a girl’s ass.

Let me tell you a story about the hospitals here in Toronto. One of them, had a problem with an OR one of the most sterile environments on the planet. Every operation ended with the patient contracting MRSA. They narrowed it down to the doctor’s farts. They have subsequently stated testing EVERYONE coming in the door. In 2005 I hosted a night that did blood play on a stage in the venue… I would NEVER do now. Times change.

I like the idea of letting communal floggers “rest” for a month. Gives the unwanted stuff a chance to go to the coodies graveyard.

The thing about leather is it absorbs stuff. When I was a volunteer firefighter any time gear made of leather got any fluid (when injuries were involved) on it they would be destroyed and new gear issued. You can imagine the amount of expensive leather gloves we went through. For the same reason the boots were of synthetic materials. Guess I am a bit paranoid from the old days.

At least with paracord it can be run through the washing machine with some soap and bleach. Effectively making it safely reusable.

What is Dextrous Soap? Google seems to have a hard time with that term. Is there a spelling error possibly?

It is true that most germs do not fair well outside the body. That is always a plus when dealing with unwanted contamination. That can be the first line of defense, use their own weakness against them.
