Tantus is a sex toy company that since the 90’s has helped to move entire industry towards using safer materials in order to better promote sexual, physical, and mental well being. Recently I reviewed the Severin butt plug that is made by Tantus and was extremely impressed with how smooth and soft the materials were to the touch. The reason I decided on the Dragon Tail was to give myself some insight into what Tantus produces on the BDSM side of things.
The Toy…
When it comes to Dragon Tails, my main concern is balance. If you have a toy that is not balanced well it can be difficult to find a decent rhythm during impact play sessions. I just want to say this toy is extremely well balanced and after getting familiar with it for a while you should be able to find a technique that works for you. If this toy doesn’t do it for you, Tantus has a total of TEN silicone Impact style toys on the shevibe website. One that caught my eye was the Tawse. It seems a bit heavier and I prefer a more weighted toy.
The Material…
One thing that makes me really appreciate this toy is the fact that its made of body-safe silicone. Meaning the handle can be used for anal play. Toys with Multiple uses are SO worth it. I do recommend using this toy on yourself before using it on another person, so you can gauge pain levels. Since the toy is made of silicone it can be very painful if desired. I also found use in the handle as a type of “cane”.
Using The Toy…
Immediately I realized how diverse this toy was. My favorite part is the area labeled “Tantus“. The way this functioned was similar to a riding crop but with the whiplash effect from the tip of the Dragon Tail. I thought this was a great part of the design as I was able to switch my technique in the middle of play to achieve different sensations. A fun thing to do with this toy is to cover it in lube as well as your partner during impact sessions. This can really mix things up, and is not a problem since you are easily able to wash the toy afterwards.
