Ultimate shoulder rides

Ajax:

Thank you for your  considered and candid  reply.

As a rider myself, I might  question the  choice of  jeans  as I find jeans rather restricting when sitting on someone's shoulders  and  irritating to  the carrier's neck, but that is of course  a personal preference.

Your preference for a carrier with whom  you have a relationship  is interesting, though  I doubt rare or unusual.
I have never personally thought of a relationship  with a  carrier as much of a  priority.

Would you consider  hiring or renting a carrier  if  other options were not available?

I'm usually a carrier, But i don't mind a ride here and there

I'm a male

I prefer to carry girls

I think I like a mutual level of power. Tho I do like dominance on her part

I'm flexible, but I like shorts, and leggings. I'm okay doing jeans tho

I've never thought about renting or hiring a carrier.

Hi, what would you be willing to pay your carrier and how many minutes and rides would you want to have?

I am male and straight.

I love to sit on people who wheigh less than me, women and men. I like the feeling of dominating and them struggling.

I enjoy only sitting on them especially on shoulders, but also like to be in control, when I sit on them and tell them where to go.

I like me and the carrier to be fully clothed, but also naked. A trench coat would also be interesting, so I would have to be more in control.

I would consider renting a carrier.

1) I'm 21 y.o. male and exclusively a rider.

2) I look for willingness and dedication to serve as a carrier/pony before gender if I have time and opportunity to have regular rides so that i can train my carrier as per my wishes. Having a physically stronger carrier who isn't fully dedicated might never be able to use his full strength but someone who is not that physically stronger but is fully dedicated may just end up giving better (and maybe longer) rides.
Having said that, if its just for one or two meeting, like me and my carrier are in same town somehow then I would prefer men because practically they can carry for longer times. As such, I have no preference for the gender -- open to have both male and female as my carriers.

3) Yes, I prefer to be in full control of my carrier. It depends like if i'm meeting someone while on the go(non-regular rides) then i have no concern of having control when i'm not sitting on him/her. But if i have a carrier who gives me regular rides, I think the nature of the activity, over the time, will make rider the controlling one over the time.
Also, most of the time the carrier/sub/pony would actually want you to be controlling one and I have absolutely no problem in doing that.

4) Anything comfortable, like shorts.

5) Absolutely, if there is no other option. Although its better when the carrier wants to be ridden as well.

AudreyB:

The point I was trying to make was often that often people who like to say they would want to "submit" to you, might not know the physical challenges of a ponyplay (if rider really wants to be in control), So , if someone isn't familiar with the idea of shoulder/pony riding and how sometimes exhausting it can be but is very well interested in "submitting" would give up way too soon and that's where someone who is dedicated to "carry the weight" and has that mentality will provide better and more enjoyful pony rides. Ofcourse he would also have his limits and to push him through will keep the rides fun.

If your carrier can't pull good amount of ride time, maybe because of age or if he's just do whatever you tell him then maybe he's trained good enough to pick you up for the max amount of time to satisfy you before taking a break and that would've made the rides quite monotonous. Maybe you would like to push him more time before he takes his break or switch between different positions like from shoulder riding position to all4s and maybe the reverse of it too, so to bring something new (and fun) to the activity. Not to mention, having a regular carrier to ride on is fun in itself, most riders here would definitely like it even if he's too co-operative.

Also, when I said I would prefer someone who is more willing than look for fitness between the two is when other factors are not varying a lot. To put it in perspective, an average 50 years old and 30 year old may have varying levels of energy fitness etc which will obviously make one choose the 30 y.o. even if 50 y.o. is more willing.
But if the 50 y.o. has been working and lifting his earlier years of age and seems quite fit but on the other hand 30 y.o. is still the avg guy or rather a skinny guy and keeping the other fact constant that the 50 y.o. is more willing, then obviously I will be inclined towards 50 y.o. as my carrier (although I could get it wrong here with my choice).

Ofcourse, its all dependent on personal preferences and there's no wrong or right in it.

Its great that you get have gotten the chance of riding both male and female carriers, I agree the  " seat " is very important factor. Usually, broad and muscular shoulders make a good seat, especially for some like me, who doesn't really like using a saddle because I believe a carrier should provide good and comfortable seat and the rider shouldn't be dependent on a tack for that.
I'll rather be very lucky if i could find a girl who is not only interested in carrying according to my wishes (long rides and submitting) but also provides good shoulders to sit on. Its just sounds too good to be true and almost impractical (and going by the number of females carriers on here at USR (if any), I'm quite certain there isn't really anyone of that sort).

Thank you for your candid  reply.
I share your  preference for male carriers  and as an  adult, I have only been carried by one female carrier.
She was a  lesbian masochist  and I  couldn't help feeling empathy for her struggles which started within 5  minutes from the time I  first sat on her. The  narrower shoulders were also  an issue  and unless she hunched her back I found  it  difficult  to sit comfortably on her.
Perhaps you may  have better luck.

I  believe that to  fully  enjoy  a ride of  any  length of time, the rider  should  really be in  control of the carrier just as  he/she  would be in control of a horse or other beasts of burden. This is both  for  enjoyment of the ride  and security while  you are sitting on the carrier.  The man I sit on most often right now  is completely cooperative and submissive but not nearly as strong as other carriers I have  been on. We have a  good  relationship  as rider and carrier  but I have  often thought  that  he cooperates a little to much  and it would be more fun  and less  routine if I had to  break him a little  rather than  just sitting on him  as he takes  my  directions . He  tries  very hard  but he's over 50   and can't  do  what  a younger or stronger carrier can.  So  the  only place I disagree with you  is that submission of the carrier to the rider's will  isn't always as desirable as his fitness  to  serve.

rider_in:

I fully understood your  point  and I have certainly encountered 50+ year old men  who are in much better physical condition than 20 to 30 year old men.

My reference was in regard to the most obedient and willing  carrier I am currently acquainted with and the one I tend to ride upon  most frequently simply  because of  my time constraints  and his  availability .

He is always willing to lift  and carry  me ,assuming any position I want  in spite of the  fact that his primary interests is  not to carry women on his shoulders.  He prefers giving  rides in the  hands and knees position  which is  his  main  fetish or  obsession.
Sometimes I only partially indulge  his preference  by taking  a few minutes to sit on his back  as one sits on  a chair after he has performed some task or favor for me.

However he is not capable of some of the longer and more strenuous  carrying  that many have  described  here , partially because he's  not a really  big  man  and because of  previous injuries , at least as much as his age  being a factor.
His willingness  to  serve vs  his ability to serve are  conflicting in this.

The  thing he doesn't provide is a challenge because from  the moment I sit on him
he become docile  and  he apologizes instantly if I readjust  my position as if my  slight  discomfort was his fault.  Often I find sitting on his shoulders more like sitting astride a  chair  that  moves   than  riding on  a man's shoulders.

That is what I  mean by  having a  carrier that is  too  obedient.
I often  have to order him to put me down before I really want to end  the ride
because I know he  has reached his limits and he  won't  say so.
I have  no real affection  for him  but I wouldn't want to  sit on him  until he falls down  and dies.

Oh Okay, I understand you , it is an unlucky scenario where carrier is more than willing to carry and give rides but just can't due to various factors. He just don't wanna put you down but clearly can't do anything new and challenging (basically fun) for you and therefore, your rides have become very monotonous despite the fact that you carrier is very willing.
Unfortunately, there must be a minimum benchmark a carrier should have to indulge in different challenges of varying difficulties before having a correct mindset.
If only he would have had physical abilities somewhat better than you could've got a great carrier.
Having said that, you are correct in ordering him to put you down, a true rider should not only know how to push the carrier for hard challenges but also know when to REALLY stop.

Do you have other (stronger) carriers too in your area that you get to ride , maybe not often but once in a while? Or is it just this one from quite sometime now?

Hello!

My set of answers here.

1) I'm a male.
2) I enjoy being carried by male as well as by female. I don't mind the carrier of any gender.
3) I prefer to be in control, but only control. I'm not into total dominance.
And for sure only while sitting, not 24/7.
4) I have no preferences in this regard.
5) More likely no, than yes.

Audreyb, thank you for this interesting topic and getting your inputs about the answers.

binoti:

Your indifference in   the choice of the  gender  of your carriers is interesting.
I prefer male carriers myself, not only because they are usually more available  but  because I  prefer the greater  security of  having  a man's strength  beneath me regardless of the  length or distance of the ride.

Which brings about  the question of  if you have a slight preference about  the gender of your carrier and do you prefer that  the carrier be more or less submissive when  you are  sitting on  him/her?

I agree that being in control of your carrier  while you're  sitting on him is important and desirable  and also  that the  relationship  with the carrier need  not be one of  your  domination of him outside of the rider/carrier  role.

I do  however  find some  clothing  to  restrictive when riding  and sitting on  a  carrier's shoulders, sometimes irritating on the carrier's neck  and difficult to  feel his muscles  through  to  determine his level of  fatigue through.  Since my  carrier's tend to  try to impress me with their abilities, I find  that determining the length of times and distance traveled while I'm  sitting on them   is easier  to determine though soft and comfortable clothing.

I do  appreciate your  input, particularly from  a  male standpoint since it's to  easy  for  me to consider it  from  my own.

binoti:

I find it interesting that so many of us can have different  views of  essentially the  same activity  when  except in  obvious extremes,  the  acts involved are  relatively  common and I might even  assume  that  most people have performed it from  either the  rider/sitter or carriers position  either  for  fun or  practical purposes.

In  regard to your  "rodeo" reference, I sometimes  like not only being in  control   but taking  control . Needless to  say that of course it invariably involves a willing  carrier that I'm adjusting to my satisfaction.  I  also like some  degree of struggle from  the carrier  performing the  service  because I  like the  feeling of  being served ,special  and  worthy of his best efforts .

rider_in:

He does  most of the minor repairs on my  15 year old  house.
He installs outlets, cleans  my  carpet, occasionally  weeds my  garden,  removes stains from my  hard wood  floors, moves  furniture,  tightens the  joints  of  my  dinning room chairs  ,  carries out heavy  trash  etc. etc. and  does it  all  completely free of charge  and even  thanks me for letting him  do it.

He is  over 20 years  my senior and I enjoy ordering him around. He isn't particularly into carrying me on his shoulders by loves crawling around on  all fours with  me  on his back.  He also  gave me a pair of  silver spurs  with   gold inlays  but they are dangerously sharp  and I wore them for him  but  I wouldn't really spur him  with them.

I  like testing his devotion by casually sitting on his back when I know  he's  especially  tired  and his back is sore. He  endures this  without complaining  and it  makes me feel special,  at least to him.

The only flaw is that he is too  obedient. Like when I let  my friend sit on him  for several minutes (the plus size  friend I mentioned) I  nearly  laughed out load  when  I  saw  his arms  quivering as he  tried to  straighten his sagging back.  I think  if there was room  on him  I could have sat next to  her  and he would have held out  until he passed out or  died.

Some resistance  from  the carrier  sometimes  increases the enjoyment because  I'm  not  just  sitting on him   and  giving  directions.  Most of the time  I prefer to sit  comfortably  by now and then I want  some  resistance to my control.
I wonder how many  riders  feel the  same?

kalupp:

Yes I  can see how  finding  women who can  and would  carry you  would be  difficult.
Most women  simply  can't lift a man's  weight for any  length  of  time and it  might  be difficult  to find a woman  you  could  be comfortable  suggesting  your  desires to.

rider_in:

I think  anything that is easy becomes  routine and the  man I was talking about simply complies without  any  resistance  at all . The  nearest thing to resistance  to me is that  he is slow to  leave  when I tell him to  and never leaves  until he's told to.

I met  him  at a private  club on his first  visit to the  club  though I had previously seen   him in  the neighborhood (he happens to  live about 3  blocks away).
He was staring at me for some time that  night and I decided to  amuse myself by flirting with  him  very casually because he looked generally  timid and somewhat out of place  in the  club  among the  regulars.
I posed a little to see how  he would react  and there was  no  doubt about his reaction.

We chatted  for a  short time  when one of the regulars put on  a little show, climbing on a  male  friend's back when he invited her to do so  and sort of  mock-riding him as if she was a rodeo  rider.
It was the  only  time he  took his eyes off me as  he swallowed nervously ,virtually transfixed  by the little show that  was occurring  about 20 feet away.

I got his attention back  when I said "maybe I should borrow him(the man the other woman had sat on)for a ride some time) and he seemed riveted  at the words.
He asked  me  if I went to the club often  and I said I usually  come on  Fridays   but  I was there  that  night (Thursday) because I had a  plumber coming  on  Friday to  fix a  leak in my  bathroom.  He instantly volunteered  to  fix it  and  said he used to work  as a  plumber  and he wouldn't charge me for the work.
Since it  wasn't a  major  issue I took  his offer .

His interest was obvious by that time  and when he lingered on his hands and knees after  fixing the leak, I sat down  on  his back,  acting as if it were a perfectly natural thing  to do  and said  "do you  mind?" .  He was silent for several  seconds  before saying  "Please don't get up"  and from  that point on  our relationship was  established.

I had  been involved with quite a few  masochistic  fetish oriented  guys and since  this one  happened to have a fetish  that I rather enjoy I simply took advantage of him.
Je confessed his  desires ,  rarely asks for anything  special  and I  sit on his  back, ride on his shoulders  or  on his  back  when I feel like  , in the manner I feel like  or  not at all  depending on my  mood. He insists that he's  my  "slave" and I let him pretend without  acknowledging it one way or another.   His  "flaw"  as I mentioned  is that he offers  no  resistance  and  that  he  is too  old  and lacks the  stamina for walking  long distances with me sitting on his shoulders. He would be  convenient  if he could  but  I  know  that he simply  can't.

I see, if only he would have been as capable physically as he is mentally to provide rides then his "flaw" could have turned into his "best quality".

Having stamina to carry for long distances would have opened up way to many more and new things so it would been more fun.

I'm a pony tinni pony boy since very log time

I have give a good ride to woman and girls many times

I'm a skinny underweight I think that's why they do love my body some time I think my bones tickles my riders that's why they want me again and again

I can carry upto 85kgs on me for a city tour

krisbean:

Thank  you  for the compliment.

We seem  to  disagree on very little. The exception  being that I tend to be attracted to  both  males and females dominating men. The exception  that that  being that I don't  find musclebound jock  dominating and  bullying but  rather more average  or even boyish types in  the dominant role over  macho more  masculine looking men.
I also feel a sense of satisfaction when I  see average looking  and  matronly ladies riding  on or otherwise dominating masculine  looking men.

I agree  that a carrier "slave"  who obeys at all times  is  a convenience  if you  have time to sit on him  either physically or metaphorically  and  not  simply  cater  to  his  fetish  for submission. The  master/mistress should always be  in  control.
But it takes time  to arrange such relationships  and unfortunately  takes up  more time  than I  currently  have .

I somewhat disagree with  riding while wearing  jeans. When  I chose  jean-shorts,(denim) I found that  my natural  movement while sitting on  his shoulders rubbed  his neck raw  because of the placement of the seam.

Very true Audrey. I have to admit I enjoy watching smaller women dominating much larger men, and I tend to prefer dominating older men or men larger than me.

Would you say that you prefer shoulder riding/dominating over conventional sexual activities? I understand if you prefer not to answer.

I have to admit that the jeans are more of a convenience, since that's what i'm usually wearing in fall/winter/spring. Frankly the jeans that I usually wear are blended with stretchy synthetic fibers, so they are more freemoving than raw denim. The one time I rode in raw denim I did not enjoy it as much. As usual, I did not consider the effect on the slave. You are kinder than I.

Hello!

I am a male.

I enjoy being carried by female but really I don't mind the carrier of any gender. But I only like to carry women.

I like to be in control only during the ride.

I like to ride in shorts as it provides more comfort .

I would not like to hire anybody I'd rather like to ride on someone I know .

Hey! I'm 19 yo male rider but sometimes I like to carry (It's rarely but it depends on my mood and the person to carry/ride).
I'm straight as I know, but sometimes i like to explore boundaries of myself.
I prefer to ride a woman but don't mind riding a man as well
I prefer to carry a man as well.
I like to be in control only during a ride.
I like to ride in shorts (best are the gym shorts on basketball ones)
renting for sure
