Box Tie
By MorTis

Now with western style bondage, for things such as hog-ties usually he arms are tied together with a 2 column tie at the wrist and maybe the elbows. But ties like this put a lot of pressure on the joints, which means the average person can only stay tied this was from 10-15mins usually. So I use what is a hojojustu version of an arm tie, that we call a box tie. Your arms are forming a box, and all the parts are supporting each other, and it takes of the pressure for all the joints. So then you can keep someone's arms tied behind there backs for hours.

I prefer to always tie a chest harness on a person before doing this, because a chest harness makes a great anchor put for a box tie, or Japanese hog tie. etc.

You will need:
1 Victim
20ft or more of rope for the Box Tie
Rope for the Chest Harness or yoke.

1. Place the victims arms behind their back. You want them to bend their elbows at 90o angles behind their back, and have their right hand holding there lift wrist/arm, and the left hand face there right arm and holding there right wrist/arm depending on the flexibility.

2. Your going to tie a boola-boola with the bight around both of their wrists together. This doesn't have to be tight.

At this point they can just slip their arms out sideways, but later on we will fix this.

3. Take the tails up to the upper right arm a couple inches above the elbow. Wrap around the elbow and then twist the rope around the band coming up from the bools-boola.

This creates some rope fraction, and will help you tighten it up and keep it in place. You can tighten it up a couple inches here.

4. Then take the tails to the other arm. If you have a chest harness, put the rope through the chest harness, this will help keep it tightened up also. Go to the left arm, wrap the rope around the arm a couple inches above the elbow. Twist the rope around the band coming down, tighten it up a couple inches.

At this point the arms should not be able to go sideways, nothing to tight, but nothing should be able to move much.

5. Take the tails down to the boola-boola, pull the tails through the boola-boola, between the boola-boola wrapping, and the wrists/arms.

6. The take the tails up to the Chest harness again, pull the tails trough it and cinch it up more and tie it off with a half-hitch or square-knot.

Now when doing these, all the parts and the arms are support each other, and none of the weight and pressure is on the joints. So this is great for mid-term bondage (1-4 hours is not a problem usually)

HINT: If you do not have a chest harness and want to be able to cinch the boola-boola up, you can make a yoke. After After step 5, take the tails under the twist in one side, then go up the front over a shoulder, around the back on the neck, over the other shoulder, down the other arm pit, under the other twist, through the boola-boola, then up the to yoke over the back of the neck, and then cinch it up and tie it off some where.

HINT: If you have extra rope, experiment and try other things with it, sometimes I try to make kool designs, or give extra support but putting my bands around different parts of the arms.
