Anatomy and biomechanics

The Spiral is characterized by the torsion between the axis of the hips of the receiver, who is in a lateral decubitus position at the edge, and the approach in a bipedal position of the penetrator. This position creates an oblique angle that grazes the lateral walls, intensifying the stimulation.

Why this position works

This position is liked for its ability to provide deep penetration and stimulation of the lateral walls, as well as the comfortable control it offers to the penetrator and the low effort for the receiver.

  2. The penetrator stands in front of the receiver, adjusting their position for oblique penetration.
  3. The penetrator leans forward, using rocking movements to stimulate the lateral walls.
