I just returned from New York. Anybody with a chance to do it should check out Kinematics, Inc. -- it's TICKLE FETISH HEAVEN!! I walked in and had one of those "where have you been all my life!" feelings. It's got at least 50 tickling videos and a 'preview' area where you can watch them.

It's on 37th Street between 5th and 6th.

Anybody else been there? Comments anyone?
 
Hello,

While I have never been there personally, I totally agree with your assessment. They have been caring my magazine "Tales from the Asylum" since August 2000 and they have sold hundreds of issues. They actually have all 22 issues in stock as well as the Yenny Comic.

The store is well known for it's great fetish selection.

#61 West 37th St.
New York, NY 10018-621

Here is a list of other retail stores that carry our magazine as well...

Just knowing that some homeless guy is using one of my stories to keep the rain off of his head is the apex of my writing carer!

Seriously, I've heard a lot of great things about Kinematics, and on my next trip to the Big Apple, I am going to have to stop in!😎

Kinematics does have an outstanding selection...I was just there a couple of weeks ago. One warning: although they have preview booths, there is no search feature, so you have to watch videos all the way through. A small gripe...but I've always liked that search feature when looking for my favorite scenes...mainly upper body. Great store though!
 
Further thought

What's so great is how -- at Kinematics -- I felt like my fetish was actually ACCEPTED. What an amazing feeling!! Entire AISLES devoted to Tickling videos! Actual POSTERS on the wall advertising the latest in Tickling videos!

In the run-of-the-mill adult video stores, you're lucky if you find even one Tickling video. And when you do, it's typically lost in the single rack of "Bondage" videos -- in the back of the store behind the 5,000 videos about breasts -- sandwiched between "Spanks for the Mammories" and "Midget Nude Wrestling." And it's typically some California Star production, circa 1985. And when the store actually has a "fetish" section, it's glutted up with "Lactation," "Gang Bang" and "Enema" videos. Christ -- Tickling is treated as a red headed step child, even among other non-mainstream sexual interests!

Damn it, I'm tired of browsing through the "Scatological" and "English Discipline" sections in an attempt to locate anything with the word "Tickling" on the cover! Makes me feel like a perv just being in those sections! And on the off-chance I find a tickling video, hidden behind a video titled "Heavy Loads" or "Spanked by Santa," I'm somewhat sheepish about bringing it up to the counter for preview/rental. Rightly or wrongly, I get the feeling that the 17-year old punk with the nipple, nose and scrotum piercings is thinking to himself, with revulsion, "Gee, I was wondering who rented *this* type of video..."

Where was I before I began my rant?

Oh yeah -- Kinematics is great! Finally, a video store devoted to us!
 
Hey, I know how you feel! The local "Adult Store" near me is owned by a friend of mine. He owns one here and one in Binghamton. I've asked him over and over about stocking more tickling stuff. He says that they don't sell well. But everytime he gets one in, it's "Gone in 60 seconds".

Hmmmmm....
 
You guys think you have a bad deal?

Try it over here in good old Blighty! We are up to our sore backsides in "English Discipline" as MN puts it, its either that or magazines that look like a medical students gyneacology revision notes! So the notion of going in to a store lined with tickling videos is about as remote as an episode of "Friends" making me laugh.
 
Friends is a comedy?

Actually, there was a discussion about this store in the images section of all places (I think it was in one of those productive "where's the clip?" threads). I agree, MN Tikl, Kinematics is quite the shop. I 'discovered' it about 2 years ago, I guess, after Guiliana (Guiliandrews :idunno: ) had booted many of the adult businesses from Manhattan. I was very excited at the time. I guess I own too many videos because I seem to have exhausted much of what they have there. They seem to be the only game left in town.
 
I got the address to KINEMATICS off of the TFTA website about a year ago. I now go there regularly to purchase issues of the magazine, among other things. And while there are SOME adult stores left along 8th Avenue here in Manhattan that carry a few tickling videos (mostly of the Cal-Star variety, and bootlegs from some other tickle-vid companies), I must agree with everyone here that nothing stands up to this place when it comes to the sheer volume of tickling product!

I urge anyone thinking of travelling to the Big Apple in the future, please DO give this establishment a try...you'll be as sold on it as MN and everyone else was.

Come oooonnn....you know you want to! 😀😀😀😀

are they putting you through college? 🙂

we should have "sponsered by kenamatics" printed at the bottom of this thread :blaugh:
 
Kinematics is indeed great (though a little pricier than buying them straight from the company) and are really nice. I used to work right around the corner and they usually kept at least one or two tickling tapes on their video booths (and you can pay to preview the tapes as well which was handy a few times!)

Maybe they should include it in all of the current "Come to New York" commercials! (lol!)
 
Kinematics is GOLD

I've been going to Kinematics since before I was married, when Cal Star was all you could get. I am glad it survived the Giuliani onslauhght...there used to be 10 places a few blocks up, where you could get any kind of video, but they are all gone now.

Kinematics is still where I sneak away once or twice a year to get the latest in tickling media..It is the best, and I wish I could get more, but I have a family to think about too. Can't justify the tickle budget right now...maybe when I retire...

Based on recommendations in TMF, I visited Kinematics yesterday- BOY WAS I DISAPPOINTED!!!!!

It appeared that they were doing renovations, so the selection of videos was limited. Further, when I asked one of the employees if they offered video previews he said NO! He didn't say "we usually do, just not now during renovations"- he said NO!

Oh well!!
 
micktick -

Did you go upstairs? I was just there 4 days ago, and their selection was massive (dozens and dozens of tickling videos). There's a place next door that's nothing special, also called Kinematics.
 
I HAVE BEEN GOING TO KINEMATICS SINCE I AM 18 AND I AM NOW 33. THAT IS WHERE I FOUND MY FIRST EVER TICKLING MATERIAL THE MAGAZINE TICKLING TIMES. IT IS A VERY COOL STORE AND I COULD NOT LIVE WITHOUT IT.
 
Would a lady feel comfortable in this store?

As a woman I have always felt very shy about approaching these types of establishments? When any of you go to this store do you ever see any women in there? Would a woman feel comfortable in your opinion? I am in NY from time to time and would love to be able to get some tickling material.😎 :idunno:
 
a real non-answer

I can't remember a time when I've entered or exited an adult video store and felt comfortable, perhaps partially due to the fact that I keep my fetish a secret. I always feel like garbage when I'm doing it, and I sometimes wonder what would happen if I run into someone I know :scared: . I don't think I've ever seen a women in Kinematics, but I tend to keep my head down and concentrate on why I'm there rather than witness the depravity. I can't say I've seen women in any adult video stores to speak of, save for the occasional couple. The store itself is probably more comfortable than most adult establishments. It's on the second floor of the building, first of all, and it's not nearly so seedy as some of the Eighth Avenue stores. It's fairly clean and well organized, so you don't have do as much 'hunting through english discipline' than in other shops. So, in long-winded fashion, as a women (which I'm not 🙄 ), I would think that Kinematics is about as comfortable as comfortable can get with regard to adult establishments that would carry tickling material.
 
I've seen women in such establishments.....but like MicA said, they are usually accompanied by a male companion. Just yesterday I was in KINEMATICS and saw not one, but THREE couples in there (X-Mas shopping? Hmmm. )

So, if you feel uncomfy about it JPie1, just simply take hubby or the b/f with you to help take the edge off. It would be a shame for you to miss out on all the goodies in there. Give it a whirl! 🙂

By the way, I never knew there was a SECOND floor to that place MN.
😕 I've only seen the BACK of the place, where all the extra viewing booths are.

How does one get upstairs?
 
Need a group outing to the store!

Maybe we can all meet at the front of the store and then go in!!

😀 JPie
 
...and take the store by storm?

:evilha: It'll be an attack worthy of King Arthur's knights! They'll never know what hit them!


:wow: Or were you thinking more along the lines of a field trip?
 
Can anyone say field trip!

I can't go it alone!!! I am a damsel in distress that just happens to have a thing for tickling!!

JPie:scared:
 
Oh, fairest damsel ...

Please allow me to cure your distress when you come and visit me soon. 😉

Kinematics is Awesome!!!

Hey all-

Just wanted to thank you MN Tikl for pointing out that the store next door, which is the one I went to the first time, also is called Kinematics. Hoing I had indeed made a mistake, I went again.

BOY AM I GLAD I DID! IT'S AWESOME!!!

I've already gone two days in a row and shelled out some bucks to see Franchesca Lee tickled in a video booth (what an incredible body!!!! I can't beleive you can tickle her at lady lauras- now I just need to go to La!🙂

The next day, I went to preview Superheroines by Paradise Video. I paid for half an hour so I didn't get to see the whole tape, but I did get to see the entire Catwoman/Wonder Woman scenario ( it shut off when it was going to an Indian woman scene)

OH MY GOD!! HOW SEXY WAS CATWOMAN! WHY HAVEN'T I SEEN MORE OF HER!!

Did anyone see the rest of the tape- is it any good?

Anyway, thanks again MN Tikl.

Now I have two new problems- I can't keep taking two hour lunches and these previews can add up! Anyway, these are good problems to have-problems that I will overcome!

Minnesota comes through again!

Sounds like tickle heaven, MN. Your description of the standard video store experience was "spot on" as our UK friends say.

Thanks for the information.
