Have you ever heard of a rigger kink or rope bondage? It’s a fascinating art form known as kinbaku or shibari. For those who have this kink, the idea of tying up a partner in rope is incredibly arousing.
Shibari, or rope bondage, is a sensual and intimate practice. It’s like an art form that allows you to express deep connection and trust through the medium of rope. As a rigger, the person doing the tying, and the rope model or guided, the person getting tied up, explore the dynamics of give and take using the rope as a connective tool. Non-verbal communication and body language play a significant role in this experience.
If you’re someone who enjoys learning new skills and wants to explore the realm of submission through physical bondage, a rigger kink might be right up your alley. Instead of relying solely on YouTube videos, I recommend seeking out rope or shibari dojos in your local community. They can provide valuable insights into the types of rope to use, the right tension, and beginner-friendly ties.
Imagine creating something intimate for your partner as a rigger. Let yourself surrender to the feeling of safety and containment that rope bondage can provide. Just like some people value engagement rings, those in BDSM relationships often attach great significance to their rope kits.
A rope kit typically includes different types of rope like nylon, hemp, or jute, cutting shears, and all the necessary hardware for your desired rope scene. Your rope will be tailored to fit your body size and shape, ensuring that knots fall in safe places without causing harm.
Some Important Considerations for Aspiring Riggers
While rigger kink can be a lot of fun, it’s crucial to be aware of potential risks and take necessary precautions. Rope bondage is considered edgeplay, meaning it involves consensual acts that can potentially cause harm. As a rigger, it’s important to prioritize the principle of “do no harm” during more intense play sessions. Suspension and incorrect or prolonged tying can lead to injuries.
Before engaging in rope play, learn how to cut someone out of the rope. Familiarize yourself with different styles of rope bondage from experts like Lew Rubens or Georg Barkas. As a rigger, it’s wise to carry a rope kit, carabiner hardware, cutting implements, a first aid kit, a blanket for your rope bottom, and essentials like water and snacks.
I highly recommend taking private lessons or visiting your local rope dojo when starting out. Consistent practice is essential to hone your skills as a rigger. Learn fundamental ties like the somerville bowline and explore educational rope videos to expand your knowledge.
Rigger Kink and Love Languages
Engaging in rigger kink can satisfy different love languages for both the rigger and the rope bottom. Acts of service, quality time, words of affirmation, gift giving of rope kits, and physical touch through bondage all intertwine in the world of rope bondage. It can be a fantastic way to enhance intimacy and have fun with your partner.
