My History

How would you describe yourself as a flagger?

I’m a work in progress and always striving to be better at this craft. I’m okay, I think, but others say differently; they actually think I’m great. Oh my!!


What is it about flagging that you enjoy the most?

The physical, mental, spiritual, and emotional orgasm that it gives me that I haven’t been able to achieve from anywhere or anyone else.


How long have you been flagging? How did you get started?

Since April 2007. Got started after being inspired by Rodger Belk and being sold my first set of flags that he personally made and used for some years.


What was your first flagging experience?

Flagging for some close friends in my studio apt. for the first time; they were my first real audience, with real comments, and real criticism.


What was one of your best flagging experiences?

So far to date…..the Schwartzwald Black Party during Outfest 2007 in Los Angeles, CA.


Who has inspired or taught you?

I was inspired by Roger Belk in April 2007 at a Leather Fest event in Silver Lake, CA. I was in awe with his flagging and watched him non stop. Afterwards, we talked, and because of my enthusiasm, he sold me the flags off his back!! I now use his personal flags and will cherish them until i’m forced to lay them to rest.


What advice do you give to beginning flaggers?

Practice makes perfect. Learn to flag to slow music as well as the fast music. The slow music will put you in a different mind set and allow you to explore different levels. Also, get to know what it’s like to flag to Liturgical music, if possible. It’ll blow your mind! The grace, the elegance, the flow….it’s awesome!


What nice/unusual comment has anyone said to you while flagging?

"Your back muscles are to die for!"
"Your arms have veins like railroad tracks and they pop out fiercly when you flag."
" I love when you flag on your knees!"
"Are you programmed?"
