And this picture of Ze doing a suicide suspension ritual is really wonderful as well… The setting he’s chosen to hang in is very beautiful and must have helped make this experience worthwhile.
Also from Milano, Italy

ModCon book how-to
Onega demonstrates the correct way to read the now out-of-print ModCon book. And yes, it really is out of print. I have about twenty copies here, and Ryan has about the same at the shop. No reprint is planned for the immediate future because there are new books in the queue, including part two to this book… So if we do put the last few into stock, grab them to avoid paying $200 used.
Tandem Suspension Pre-Lift
If I understand this photo from CJ (that’s him on the top, and Jer on the bottom), CJ was not entirely sure that the rigging (by TSD) was done properly, so Jer was asked to lie there to break his fall should any of the bolts pop out of the wall. It might not seem like much, but falling onto concrete on your belly from five feet hurts… This way the combination of crushing Jer and the massage table padding makes it almost painless*. But maybe I’m not understanding correctly.
* For CJ only… Jer on the other hand? World of pain. But someone’s gotta do it.
At least it’s a pretty location
I think this may be one of the first photos of an ass suspension where the person doesn’t, well, look like an ass. Now, don’t get me wrong — he’s hamming it up in the other photos in the set, but I really thought this picture had a nice zenlike “upside down meditation” quality to it. Thanks to my friend Joao_Caldara from Brasil for this.
Oh, and if you want to know what an ass suspension does to your undies…
Anal Nosorog fans are nuts!
Thanks to Tan0k from Russia’s SteelTeam for sending me these pictures of a suspension performance he did at an Anal Nosorog show in Moscow (bulldozer fuckin’ grind core scum band). I have no good explanation as to what’s going on — all I can suggest is that Russian girls are really hot for well hung guys.
Unusual Suspension Rigging?
This is probably only going to be of interest to those who’ve worked a suspension, but take a careful look at the pattern of the ropes. This is not something that I’d suggest personally; it would be very difficult I think to get good, consistent hook tension unless I’m missing something… someone really needs to open Pandora’s Box and write a Suspension How-To book.
178 Hook Suspension… world record?
I regularly see 30+ hook suspensions using small gauge hooks in the SM community, but in terms of upper limit world-record type stuff (as in numebr of hooks used in a suspension), I think Cali (assisted by Ascension and Birde-Mann) is the current winner with this 178 hook superman suspension.

Animal Suspensions
“Good boy,” says IAM:hailshimmer as she uses a dog as a counter weight on a couple of chest flesh hooks… I wonder if this will generate as much hate-mail as BME‘s animal piercing and tattooing gallery? If not, let me make it worse by sharing this picture of Badgerfist and his friends eating pussy.
Shannon = Bad Man
OK, I really like this picture in terms of a piece of art (thanks to Steve Truitt and Ascension) that captures the serenity of suspension… but the uncontrollably masculine part of me can’t help but me titilated at the realization that I can see down (up?) her undergarment. Seriously, I ought to be ashamed of myself. This is why I’m not a piercer — I have the complete inability to maintain professional distance.
WTF?
Thanks to Anodyne for sending in a whole set of photos of suspensions with Wildfire in Capetown, South Africa. On the whole it was a very normal looking set, with typical rigging, a normal crowd of onlookers, and so on, but check out this picture… Seriously, is that one of the undead in the background?
