Slapper

Leather slapper

Slappers and flappers are spanking implements that are similar to a strap or leather paddle, but make a louder sound on impact that is caused by two pieces of material slapping together. The handle is usually stiffened, while the business end is left flexible.

In horseriding

In horseriding, a slapper is used to startle the horse with a loud noise. This instrument is also called a pig slapper.

In BDSM

In the BDSM and spankophile community, various implements are called "slapper" or "flapper". Often they resemble the above designs, while variations are also found, for example the business end can be a single length of leather that is looped. Besides leather, sometimes other materials are used, such as rubber or silicone.

Slappers/flappers come with a characteristic smack that is typical of an elastic material that has some weight to it. There may be one or more holes cut into one or both sides of the business end to reduce air resistance, and possibly, if swung hard, to raise blisters.
