Serendipitously, I ran into Kali from Kink Academy a few months ago at Wicked Grounds, and she asked me to film some instructional videos for them on suspension -- so I managed to slip this in there, and they've graciously agreed to allow me to use screenshots from those videos to illustrate a blog post here. This method was inspired by the Tatu hitch , during a Fetlife discussion whose details are now murky in my memory -- in any case credit is due both Tatu and Jack Elfrink for making me aware of that knot, upon which this is based. Thanks also to Mecha-Kate for modeling for these.

Fusionknots.com Two Knotty Boys Instructional Video Set for Download Two Knotty Boys are rope bondage riggers and instructors known worldwide for their commonsense-yet-whimsical style, as well as for clear, concise, well-narrated book and video instruction. While their books are available for sale, they have made their videos available free to the public for many years through whatever servers would carry them, most recently YouTube. In September 2008, YouTube suspended the TKB account, citing "flagging" by other users for content, even though these instructional videos show absolutely no nudity or violence of any kind. Most don't even include a model at all - they're all about the rope. Update: Since posting the above videos in 2008, Two Knotty Boys' JD successfully opened a new YouTube Channel, TIAT (Tying It All Together). Followup: In recent years the Two Knotty Boys, Dan and JD, have set aside their two-decade joint effort to focus more on individual projects.
