How is that so? I guess I experienced a bit of a learning curve with the curves of this toy. <- WORD PLAY. Ahem. As you can see in the above picture, the Tsunami is named as such because of its big wave-like texturey curves and g-spot leanin’ ‘head’. If you use this toy shallowly, you can get into a pretty sweet rhythm bumping the head against the g-spot and the lower texturing against the clit. Provided you have a liberal amount of lubricant in the picture, this feels quite nice. The Tsunami has a removable bullet hole, so once you pop in the 3-speed Tantus Bullet (a little on the noisy side, but pleasant enough in strength) or, if you are a power-hungry but noise-conscious monster like me, your We-Vibe Tango/Salsa bullet, then hey presto! Your dildo just became a vibrator. Now repeat the poorly-described shallow head-against-g-spot and ridgey curves against clit action and you’ll probably end up in ejaculation and/or orgasm town. Lord knows I did.

Made of a shiny, medical-grade silicone, my Tantus Tsunami is in ‘purple haze’, which is the lighter purple in the middle of the image. You can also select it in a dark purple or strawberry, if that is to your liking. The toy is soft but firm, so there should be no discomfort or pain caused by the hardness of the toy. Because the bullet vibrator is removable, the toy can be washed or even sterilised, which is good for those of us who like to share toys sans-condoms!

Note: The way the bullet hole has been designed means that there is excellent grip on your bullet vibe so it won’t slip out. Further note:  This can result in a frustrating bullet removal experience. If your question is ‘Lauren, did you get seen by people in the street with your teeth gripped around your We-Vibe Tango, desperately trying to wrench it out of the dildo with your face?’ the answer is DON’T YOU JUDGE ME. Seriously though, you might want to lube up that bullet a little before inserting it, so you don’t have weird dildo face at your window, too.

The base is entirely harness compatible, and will work with most standard o-rings/harnesses. The base also makes it safe for anal play, and whilst I haven’t tested it out on any butts yet, I reckon this would also be a pleasurable p-spot (prostate) stimulator. If you have a prostate and have experienced the waves of joy the Tsunami can bring (MORE WORDPLAY. POTENTIALLY TOO SOON WORDPLAY), go ahead and tell us about that anonymously in the comments!

Getting back to vaginal use of this toy – when used a little more deeply, the waves along the shaft of the Tsunami stimulate the g-spot as well, and this is where the softness of the toy can really come into its own, especially if you have ever used a curved and textured toy that ‘hooks’ against your bones, causing discomfort or pain or loud yelping irritation. Sans-harness, you get 6.75″ of insertable length (about 17cm), but remember that you’ll lose a little length with a harness. Of course, Tantus have been clever enough to not start texturing the toy until a little further up the shaft to allow for comfortable and unobstructed harness use.

Aesthetically, the Tsunami is one of the more pleasing toys I own now. All resplendent in its shiny light purple, the faintest hint of shimmer. Look at how it shines in the morning light. Also, whilst you are there, look at how readily it collects lint and dust. Invest in a good storage bag, or store it in the simple plastic packaging the toy comes in, if that is your style. This photo was taken on my Samsung Galaxy S3, and before I had had any coffee, so apologies for the questionable quality.

At the end of the day, I reckon this is a lovely toy, and I would totally recommend it. It wasn’t mind-blowing or revolutionary, but it is beautifully designed and crafted, and Tantus are an all-round kick arse company who I like supporting. This is a body-safe toy made by people who want to ensure you experience wave after wave of pleasure.

WATER PUNS. I’m out.
