As any good dom or domme knows, there is a psychology to topping someone. We all have different ways of doing it, but there is a psychology to the whole act. Some use words. Others use different sensations. Some use pain. And even some will use sound. But we all do it in our own ways.

Personally, I love using music and sound when I am playing with a sub. I am a dj by profession, but I do mix my kink with my job. I have my way of topping a top by doing this. But that is my little secret. But I also use sound when I am topping someone.

I have a few impact toys that make a lot of noise as they move though the air. They give that psychological warning of there is going to be pain in a few seconds. Some of the floggers and crops make the noise before they hit. But I needed a paddle that would be really loud when it would hit, so I picked up The Ouch Impressions Paddle.

The Ouch Impressions Paddle is a foot long and two and a quarter inches wide. It's made out of leather, but it has a bit of red paper between the two pieces of leather at the head of the paddle. There is also a nylon cord that is strung though the handle of the paddle so that it can go around the wrist or be hung up to keep it nice. That bit of red paper shows off the reversed "ouch" that is one side of the paddle's head. The "ouch" cut though one side head of the paddle.

When the "ouch" hits the body, the major part of the paddle make a red mark on the body that comes up in a few seconds. (Yes, I tried it out on myself, long before I tried it out on a sub to feel how much of a bite it has. This little thing has some major bite.) But the ouch comes up in the middle of the impact and will come up the same color as the sub's flesh. That will be in only part that won't sting from the impact.

It doesn't take much force to have a nice mark on a sub's ass with The Ouch Impressions Paddle. The red mark has held on the skin for as long as five minutes that I have seen so far. But the sub that I got in the ass with the paddle to last that long has skin that holds impact red marks really well. The red mark only held on my skin for about a minute. So, it could be even longer or even less time that it holds on the skin with others.

But gods, this is a fun little paddle and it is so loud when it hits the body.

My Ouch Impressions Paddle is still one of my favorite evil toys. I love that it mixes sting and thud and my subs hate it with a passion.
