Love dual density squish, but not so keen on realistic designs? The Slick might be just what you’re looking for. Bonus: its tapered shape is perfectly suited for anal play.
The most unique thing about this toy is that it is both dual density AND a non-realistic design. This is a bigger deal than you would think. Most dual density toys tend to have a more “realistic” feel, so it’s not surprising that most of those toys are also made to LOOK very realistic.
While I personally am a big fan of the realistic look, many people are not. I have to hand it to Tantus for recognizing this need and creating a toy that will appeal to people who would rather have something less phallic.
Tantus makes the Slick in two sizes, and this particular toy is the largest. It would be a the perfect choice for someone who loves the shape and squish of the Slick small, but is looking for more length and girth.
What’s the Deal with Dual Density?
I absolutely adore dual density toys. In fact, someday when I rule the universe, I’m going to decree that ALL dildos be made this way. 🙂 So what IS this dual density stuff I crave?
Basically “dual density” just means squishy outer layer of silicone around a firm, dense core. It’s a simple concept, but it creates an exquisite feeling.
It’s a simple concept, but it creates an exquisite feeling.
The interesting thing about dual density toys is that there is a distinct difference between each model, even if they are made by the same company. Some designs are more firm, some more squishy, and some have a deeper layer of squish vs. firm core than others. So just because you’ve felt one dual density toy doesn’t mean you’ve felt them all.
So How Does it Feel?
This is my third dual density toy from Tantus, and if I were to compare them I would say that the Slick is more bendy and a bit squishier than the Adam 02 and more similar to the Uncut #1.
Keep in mind, however that the Slick has a more smooth shaft than either of these models, and that changes the feel quite a bit as well.
Anal stimulation is where this toy’s design really shines
Another thing I love about the Slick is its versatility. The combination of an upward curving shaft and the tapered head make it a good toy for stimulating the A-spot with super deep, targeted and intense pressure. A deeply tapered head also makes the Slick ideal for anal play.
I think anal stimulation is where this toy’s design really shines. Although the finish on the shaft is matte, when lubed it still slides in smoothly. But the best feature for anal play is how the deeply tapered shape allows the head to glide in more easily. The triangular base was designed with pegging fans in mind and although I personally haven’t tried it out in a harness, it is designed to be harness compatible.
Slick Tricks: Cleaning Advice
One of the nice things about silicone toys like the Slick is that they’re pretty low maintenance. For everyday cleaning, you can just clean up the Slick with soap and water.
I’ve noticed, however, that cleaning around the “Tantus” lettering at the base is a bit tricky sometimes. But in the scheme of things, this is really no big deal. The Slick is made of platinum silicone and can also be boiled, bleached or (my personal preference) tossed in the dishwasher. Problem solved.
