About The Tantus Pelt

The Pelt is made from Tantus’s unique premium silicone blend that is absolutely the best silicone I’ve ever held in my hands, it is so beautifully silky smooth you just want to rub it all over your face which I did and do whenever I pick up one of my Tantus paddles. The ultra-premium silicone is also eco-friendly and hypoallergenic which is definitely a bonus and a credit to Tantus and their quality and care they put into their products keeping the buyer in mind first and foremost.

A Well Balanced Weight Makes It Wonderful To Play With

While holding the Pelt you can feel it has a well designed balanced weight. The Pelt is a shorter oval shaped paddle giving it a wonderful centralised and mildly heavy sensation. You have more control over it during impact play and you will have a better aim and an easier time targeting the right spot for when you do pelt your partner, making it a good paddle for beginners and experienced players alike. Its name does fit the Pelt perfectly as it’s the exact word that comes to mind to describe this sensation from both giving and receiving ends of the paddle.

What Is The Size Of The Tantus Pelt?

The Pelt is 11.6″ (29.5cm) long and 3′ (7.6cm) wide, all of the Tantus paddle range coming in a beautifully smooth satin finish black. These paddles are thick, sturdy yet flexible.

The craftsmanship of Tantus products is flawless, the Pelt having an almost seamless and totally smooth surface bar the upraised ‘Tantus’ stamp just above the handle, with the handle having a small hole in it for you to easily attach rope, chain, string or whatever you wish so you’re able to hang up your Tantus Pelt.

How To Take Care Of Your Paddles

I store my Tantus paddles out on a glass table and they are not dust collectors like some silicone and other toy materials can be, in saying this cleaning your Tantus paddle is a breeze, it is dishwasher safe but the premium grade silicone from Tantus is of such a high quality you can even boil or bleach your toys if you so wish.

I personally use hot water and a toy cleaner after each use, you may not have thought about cleaning your toys if they are not being inserted or worn but I highly recommend it especially if you are playing with multiple partners, during impact play there is a chance of breaking the skin or the toy coming into contact with skin that is already broken so keeping your toys 100% free from bacteria is important,Tantus is after all about good, clean fun!
