Crops are for skin impact sensation or adrenaline play. Crops make a good mix-it-up tool along with a flogging (generally to follow, but there are no hard and fast rules). Similar to a classic crop in looks and costuming Crop 20.5 has a nice flex in the shaft with a bit larger strike zone than the classics. You can change the sensation by changing the force of application. Rather than the classic loop of leather at the business end Crop 20.5 has two flaps of leather that slap together creating a bit more sound to set the mood. This is a clever adaptation. The compact size makes it super easy to control and keeps you in close proximity to your target.
