All of it is going downhill.
Realtickling was the OG but seems to have been sold so RIP I guess.
Tickleabuse used to be great. Now it's a shell of its former self and can't even be considered to be the same studio. Pornstars aren't ticklish, stop trying to convince us otherwise!
Frenchtickling used to be amazing because of how candid it all seemed and how all the girls were girls next door types. Now he just follows the same system - 40% upperbody, 60% feet. end video. It sucks. Xavier had a goldmine and he butchered it. Every once in a while he has a great model (Shoutout to recent addition Yuming!) but for the most part I've completely lost interest.
I fucking ordered CUSTOMS for god's sake from RF Studio because I was just so annoyed with how crap everything was and knew the only hope I had of seeing a proper video was to have it done my way, but even they edited the video like shit and it turned out worse than it should have.
The only studio right now that isn't putting out straight trash is AmericanTickling but even he favors beauty over ticklishness every once in a while. It's not uncommon for him to have an absolute smokeshow strapped down to his table but who turns out to be as ticklish as a rock. Still though he's been the most consistent the past few years.
Czechtickling is also not bad.
UKTickling is mid but the girls are just caked in makeup and really overacting so it's offputting.
Zentickling is and always will be a solid 8/10. No complaints.
Gone are the days of Lolo, Brooke, Jackie French, and the other OG models who awakened me to this world, but I for one still go back to old TA and RT videos every once in a while because they were the best of the best.
