But bondage for years has been one of the leading lifestyles all over Europe and around the world, so expanding our reach is extremely important.

Everyone here is so nice and treats each other like family. My perception of what it would be like to work in the Adult Novelty business was shattered within my first hour at Sportsheets Headquarters. I’m thrilled that I get to use my experience training sales teams to reach their goals and build lasting relationships with their customers at such an innovative company that has a strong reputation for quality products and customer service. When I heard that the Company motto was ‘Keeping Couples Connected’, I knew I was in the right place.”

06.01.2015 | Las Vegas, Nevada, USA – OhMiBod commemorates its fifth year at CES by raising the stakes in wearable sex tech. The sexual health innovator has added smart watch connectivity and biofeedback functionality to its blueMotion line of Bluetooth enabled massagers. OhMiBod will showcase its innovations in the iProducts section (North Hall) of the Las Vegas Convention Center, booth 6712.
 


 
OhMiBod’s revolutionary advancement in wearable technology will be available via OhMiBod Remote—an intuitive interface that allows users to connect to and control massagers via Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. Available for Android and iOS devices, the new smart watch compatible app will include preset patterns and manual intensity controls such as tap and record. But where the app truly sets itself apart is its new biofeedback functionality.
 
“OhMiBod Remote’s updates have graphicenabled biometric-driven vibrations—a first for the pleasure industry,” said Suki Dunham, founder of OhMiBod. “Imagine how you often feel with a partner—excited, turned on, and, at times, maybe even a little nervous. With this app, the wearer’s heart rate not only creates the vibrations that drive his or her partner’s pleasure, it also determines the strength and intensity of those vibrations.”
 
The groundbreaking app also takes a page from OhMiBod’s Club Vibe massagers, which vibrate in sync with ambient noise. The availability of the smart watch app is slated to be released to coincide with the release of the Apple Watch.
 
“The watch’s microphone will feed vibration patterns to our range of Bluetooth enabled massagers. So it won’t matter if you’re in the bedroom, in the club, or at a concert — you and your partner can enjoy real-time ambient sounds where it counts, when it counts, and with complete discretion,” added Dunham.
 
OhMiBod will further enhance blueMotion by adding a G-spot and couple’s ring vibrators to the collection in March 2015. The massagers’ designs are based on OhMiBod’s Cuddle and Share, which received the 2014 Red Dot Award for product design as part of the seven-piece Lovelife collection.
 
All OhMiBod blueMotion massagers can connect to Android and iOS smartphones and watches via OhMiBod Remote, which added Wi-Fi connectivity in summer 2014. This expanded capability allows couples to make connections anytime from anywhere in the world.

26.11.2014 |Chatsworth, California, USA – New Sensations announced the release of “My Hotwife’s Lover”, the first volume in a new hotwifing series from its newly launched imprint “Tales from the Edge”. Written and directed by Jacky St. James, the provocative vignette features an all-star cast and is a spinoff to the studio’s 2015 AVN Award nominated chart-topper “I Love My Hotwife”.
 


 
“The response and success that we saw with ‘I Love My Hotwife’ made it clear that there’s an untapped market for hotwifing content,” New Sensations Media Sales Director Belle Taylor said. “Whether people are actively involved in the hotwifing community or just intrigued by the fantasy of it, it’s pretty clear the demand is there. With Jacky’s enthusiasm for the genre and its impressive cast of superstars, we’re confident ‘My Hotwife’s Lover’ will be a strong performer.”
 
“My Hotwife’s Lover” features four scripted new sensations - my hotwifeencounters in which a hotwife takes a lover, much to her husband’s delight. Cover girl Karla Kush discovers her husband has arranged a romance-tinged rendezvous for her with his best friend, knowing full well she’ll cave to the seduction. Chanel Preston and her hubby lure a stranger to their bed with the help of some kinky role-play. Anikka Albrite receives an anniversary massage from a hunky masseur hired by her husband to provide a blissful afternoon. Alison Tyler lacks confidence outside of her marriage until her husband hooks her up with a lustful co-worker.
 
“The hotwifing genre has been such a joy to explore,” Jacky St. James said. “Admittedly, I find hotwifing insanely erotic. There’s something incredibly romantic about loving someone so much that there are no sexual limitations. Existing in a world with no limitations on your sexual freedoms has to be incredibly liberating!”
 
Hotwifing is the practice of sharing one’s wife sexually with other men and deriving pleasure from watching her arousal. Not to be confused with cuckoldry, the act involves no humiliation or displays of dominance. “My Hotwife’s Lover” and “I Love My Hotwife” are sex-positive depictions of the hotwifing lifestyle, inspired by true accounts.
