Sportsheets The Velvet Strike Crop

A sharp sting that packs flat

A riding crop with a long, marbled faux leather tip on a braided shaft and a rubber grip with a wrist loop. It lands a crisp, focused sting on his ass and thighs, and it's slim enough to travel.

Best forTops who like precision and pack light.

Conference week, a hotel suite, and he's bent over the desk with his slacks round his ankles. The crop came in your carry on beside the phone charger. One tap on each cheek and he's forgotten the keynote.

• Elongated faux leather head: a crisp, broad sting rather than a cut
• Braided shaft gives you a controlled flick
• Rubber handle and wrist loop, so it won't slip from your fingers
• Slim and discreet in a travel bag

How to use a riding crop

1. Agree a safeword, then loop the strap round your wrist and hold the rubber grip.
2. Start with light taps on his ass cheeks and the backs of his thighs, never the kidneys, spine or joints.
3. Build with the wrist, not the arm, and check in with him between strokes.

Pack it next to the phone charger.
