How?

To get started, the bottom will lie down on their front and bend their elbows, supporting themselves on their hands or forearms. The top will kneel behind them and get lubed up before slowly penetrating their partner from behind.

As the top slips in, they’ll plant their hands either side of their lover and straighten their legs. When you’re in position, you’ll look like two nested cobras, lying on straight legs with your backs arched upwards.

Adding a water-based lube will increase pleasure by reducing friction and increasing frisky-ness – and is essential if you're having anal sex.

To take things a little deeper, place a wedge or cushion beneath the receiving partner’s groin. This will support the hips and allow for a more intense thrust.

However intensely you choose to play, the sparks will be sure to fly.

Why?

The Rocket Launcher position is ideal for penetrative sex, whether that's anal or vaginal. And, whatever your preferences, you can switch things up by using a strap-on.

If you’ve tried Doggy Style before, you’ll know how nice it is to go from behind. But the Rocket Launcher changes the angle entirely and gives you a little more skin-to-skin contact.

With the potential for A-spot, G-spot, or P-spot stimulation, this position will make you starry eyed as you reach new heights of pleasure.

If the top is strong enough to hold their weight with one arm, they’ll even have a hand free to caress the hips, stroke the hair, and hold onto anything else for an even bigger and better bang.

Try

Speaking of a bang, why not add an electro stim sex toy into the mix? As the name suggests, E-stim toys deliver shockingly good sensations in intense bursts to sensitive body parts, like the nipples.

However, if E-stim feels a little too boundary-pushing, you can still take things further with a feather tickler or a flog. Flogs can be used to gently tickle the skin before you crack the whip, getting those nerve endings standing to attention (yes, sir!).

Novel sensations like tickling, shocks and spanks can stimulate the mind and the body – and can be part of a broader exploration of power dynamics in your sexual relationships.

Make it even easier

For bottoms that can’t easily support their body weight, creating the perfect cobra nest is key to this sex position.

Make sure you're somewhere soft, like your bed or couch, where the mattress or cushions can take a lot of the pressure away from sore joints. You can also add support by putting a pillow under your chest to ease the pressure on your arms and elbows, or beneath each knee or wrist if you're on top.

If you need to use something firmer than your usual pillow, then try the Dominix Sex Position Wedge to elevate the hips or chest, or these sex position enhancers could offer more tailored body support to areas you notice need it.

On top but don’t have the strength or mobility to maintain a cobra position? Try resting on your forearms and lying gently over your partner's back for a closer, more intimate experience.

Make it even better

Let's face it, everyone loves a party until it's time to clean up. To prevent mess, throw down a moisture-proof blanket, they're super soft to the touch and add to the sensory experience. For anal play, consider using a douche beforehand.

During, why not turn up the heat a little more with a bullet to grind up against? Or try the Mon Ami couple’s vibrator, which fits snugly inside your body in a curved shape. The wearable couple’s vibrator gives precise pleasure to the clitoris, G-spot, and penis that will have you seeing stars, while leaving your hands free for even more hedonistic pursuits.

On the subject of hands, want to kick things up a notch in the restraint department? Enhance the power dynamic by exploring cuffs and bondage ties.

These Bound to Please under-mattress restraints are sure to keep your servile honey exactly where you want them. Just remember to check in with them and that enthusiastic verbal and non-verbal consent is given throughout.
