Back to basics: spread-eagle

I was still feeling downDungeon therapy normally helps.
It had been a long time since I had previously done a spread eagle.  This tie and the hogtie seem less useful.

I used climbing webbing, and tied taut line hitches.  The taut line hitch is one of the most useful knots for bondage with rope.  The slippery version is quite important for safe suspension bondage.  The slippery version of this doesn't hold at all with climbing webbing.  The non-slippery version is good for non-structural ties with climbing webbing.  For more structural ties I use a variant of the water knot.

Performing this tie on the bench makes this the tie marginally useful.
