Personally I prefer the soles up position that is presented by a hogtie, I realise that in reality it makes little difference which way round the feet are but it just seems that as the viewer we get to see more of the soles when the ticklee is in a soles up position. Please it seems as though that are less able to move their feet away (this is particularly the case when a hogtie is backed up with being held around the ankles see pic 4).
I believe this partly explains the popularity of the hogtie and why 'the Pose' is basically a untied version of a hogtie.
This also explains the popularity of the soles up stocks at czech tickling see first three pictures below. 1 shows the stocks I refer to, 2. Shows soles in the soles up stocks close up, 3. shows the soles now oild totally exposed with excellent view of the soles.
The other benefit of a hogtie is that you can hold around the ankles as show in the 4 image attached below this totally restricts movements. I like to see this hold in all hogtie clips.
5th pick just shows that same hogtie zoomed out a little.
That is why I requested you do a hogtied clip with Ciny in the thread at

It is the same reason I requested you do a clip with Cindy face down on the humbler, that looks like a great device which would be great to see some face down (thus bare soles up) tickle action on it.
