When my Crave Strap Whip|Crave strap whip - Whip by Spartacus arrived, I couldn't rip the package open fast enough.  I enjoy the sensual touch and distinct scent of leather. The purple color is a wonderful touch and a nice change of pace from the classic black that still manages to feel deep, dark, and naughty.

The leather is fairly soft, and has a nice weight in the hands. All 22 falls are pointed at the tip, and have the ability to wrap around the flesh to provide just a little bit of sting.  The flogger distributes energy nicely, and allows for an even distribution over the area being hit, which in my opinion makes for a very enjoyable experience.  This flogger is held together by 5 rivets, whose simplicity are part of the charm.  I had one friend question the spacing of the rivets, wondering how and where she should put her fingers.  In my mind, the fingertips should coincide with the hardware, but in practice (I've used the flogger a few times now), and I couldn't tell you how I held the flogger, any of those times, even if you asked me.  Thus, the question becomes irrelevant from my perspective.

The only concern I had about the flogger was that it came in a small package, folded in half. I worried that my falls would be bent and possibly uneven. But all it took was a quick shake, and everything settled back into place. My worry was completely unwarranted.

Unfortunately, on the day I received the Crave Strap Whip I was home alone and had to play by myself.  I stood in front of the mirror for close to half an hour experimenting with my new toy.  I allowed the leather to dangle and brush against my body, sending tingles shooting across my skin.  I began with a gentle flick of the wrist, allowing the falls to graze my other forearm and within moments I was hitting harder, listening for the snap of the leather as it hit me.

Soon, the forearm wasn't enough, I found myself hitting my left thigh, hitting my right thigh and grazing my breasts all while continuing to wallop my forearm in between.  I felt the sting and only wondered what it would feel like, with a little bit more intensity...

The Crave Strap Whip makes me feel powerful, it makes me feel strong, and it makes me feel like a Top. It makes me want to hit someone and hear the lovely music of the leather, the flesh and the muted moans. The Crave Strap Whip is easy to control and enjoyable to use, it’s my first flogger. If you’re thinking about trying one out, it seems like a great place to start.
