Durable material for ice sock release

Post by rexter »

I'm interested in making something like a sock that works as an ice sock release. Mostly I'm trying to figure out what material to use. My sessions use ice socks under quite a lot of strain because they are part of a direct ice release method using tight bondage. I've had dozens of such sessions, and what I have actually works very well. Problem is that sock material eventually wears out. I'm looking for something durable, thin, non-absorbent, and sewable to create a much more refined release that uses the same principle.

I suppose I could just try out several, but I was hoping for some ideas. I don't want it to stretch much. It needs to be strong enough to withstand rubbing against the inside of O-ring, carabiner or whatever release point. It also needs to be strong enough to withstand pulling by a healthy individual who isn't a gym nut.

How about burlap? Used to make tents, rope, nets, sand bags, and allows water to flow through it. Might be strong enough for this purpose.
Bondage is like a foreign film without subtitles. Only through sharing and practice can we hope to understand.
A Jedi uses bondage for knowledge and defense, never for attack.

I thought of that. I may try it, but it seems it would stretch a lot.

I sometimes use a kitchen towel in a plastic bag. The kitchen towel does not give much and the plastic bag ensures that not everything gets wet. Only condensation water is created.

I ordered some 3" tubular webbing. Should arrive next week. I'm optimistic this can serve as the basis for what I want to construct.

eg: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07BS1C91T?ps ... ct_details

it's 100% nylon, .08" thick. breaking point of 5642lb. likely less under exterior duress between ice and a piece of metal... but probably way strong enough.
