This paddle packs a strong punch, but with my endorphins flowing, it felt more packed with pleasure than pain. It’s not for the weak or the new, and it would definitely be too much for a beginner. But, with a caring partner and a good warm up, this paddle would be an exciting challenge for anyone in love with pain. I absolutely LOVE this paddle, and it’s now my go-to favorite for all spanking occasions. Just make sure your partner has a gentle hand, as it can be pretty hard to handle.
