Обвязка "Бикини" | Bikini Harness

We start from our partner's back

Start with a ~30 foot (9m) length of rope (depending on the size of your partner). Form a Lark’s Head with the rope running around your partner’s body…

...below the breasts/across the upper chest.

Reverse tension and wrap the rope around across the lower chest a second time. Place this new wrap below the first wrap. Slide your fingers down through the new bight you just formed…

Make sure all the strands have the same tension and lie flat and orderly across your partner’s skin. You don’t want ropes lines on top of each other as that will create a pressure point which will be painful after a while. Unplanned/uncontrolled pain = bad.

Pull the tail through

Reverse tension

Wrap the rope around your partner again, then slip your fingers under the new cords and grab the tail with your fingers

Pull the tail through, reverse the tension and wrap the cords around your partner's upper chest again, wrap this second wrap above the first wrap

Slide your fingers through the last bight you make

(For some reason, I seem to have wrapped the second wrap below the first wrap when I took this picture. You actually want to *above*. The video shows this better.)

Grab the tail...

...pull it through...

Reverse the tension, then run the cords over your partner's shoulder

…bringing it to the front, laying the rope on top of the upper...

Reach under the lower strap

Pull the tail through, then grip all the cords in the lower strap to keep them flat and orderly...

Reverse the tension and *go back the way you came*

Reach under the top strap and grab the tail

Again hold the cords of the strap to keep them flat...

...and bring the cord to the opposite shoulder

It creates this nice twist

Leaving a nice straight line here that can be cinched tightly if you like. It also makes a nice handle... :)

Run the cord over the opposite shoulder, making sure the tension on both shoulders in the same. You will likely also need to dress the cords of the lower strap again.

Now we will weave the cords around this upper cross before locking them off. Cross *above* the opposite shoulder strap

*Below* the chest strap

*Over* the center line...

...thus...

*Under* the chest strap...

Tighten

Put your hand in front of the tail, and your fingers behind the center line.

Hand the tail to your fingers...

Pull the tail through

Pull tight

If you are using slippery rope, add a second half hitch using the same technique

Tighten. This is the completed harness

...except that we have a bit of line to use up.

Completed 3/4

Start with a ~30 foot (9m) length of rope (depending on the size of your partner). Form a Lark's Head with the rope running around your partner's body...

(We're going to start with the first part of a Lark's Head Single Column around her chest)

...above the breasts/across the upper chest.

Reverse tension and wrap the rope around across the upper chest a second time. Place this new wrap above the first wrap. Slide your fingers up through the new bight you just formed…

Make sure all the strands have the same tension and lie flat and orderly across your partner's skin. You don't want ropes lines on top of each other as that will create a pressure point which will be painful after a while. Unplanned/uncontrolled pain = bad.

...so that you can easily grab the tail….

…and pull it through and reverse tension.

Wrap the rope around your partner again…

...this time below the breasts/across the lower chest.

Again, slide your fingers up through the new bight you just formed, so that you can easily grab the tail…

…and pull it through.

Reverse tension again and wrap around your partner again…

…below the prior wrap...

…so that when we pull the rope through the new bight…

...it will naturally flow upward, which is where we want to go

Pull the rope up toward the shoulder (again reversing tension to keep everything in place)

There is plenty of room for variation here. You didn't have to put four strands above and below the breasts, one loop (two strands) would be fine too, although more intense

Go over the shoulder at the place where the neck muscle (trapezius) meets the shoulder muscle (deltoid)

…bringing it to the front, laying the rope on top of the upper and lower chest straps

Slide your fingers under the lower strap.

Note that you should do so on the same side of the tail as the shoulder rope. In this picture, the rope is going over the shoulder on the right, so my fingers are on the right side of the tails.

Do the same thing on the top strap.

Draw the rope through

…toward the opposite shoulder

"Dress" the ropes. As you have been threading the rope, you may have accidently bunched or disordered the ropes in the top or botton straps. Take a moment to run your fingers under them to make sure the lay flat and together.

Pull the ropes over the opposite shoulder

Make sure that the tension of the ropes on both shoulders are the same.

Slide your fingers through the lower bight on the opposite side from the shoulder the rope has just gone over

Pull the tail through

We are pretty much done. The next few steps just tie off the rope…

Complete from the back

In this example I have a bunch of extra rope left that's just hanging down her back. I could use this to tie her to something or as the starting point for a hog tie or to bring down or to put her wrists into a box tie or a host of other things…
