From my experience and this has probably been mentioned already in this thread, but i believe it to be the ball of the foot right below the toes and the place where the arch meets the heel. At least thats where i get the best reactions.

from an anatomy student
As some of you may know, I am in medical school.
It just so happens we begin our dissection of the lower limb this week - and let me just say that studying anatomy of common tickle spots is weird for me. Hey, it at least helps me study.
Anyway, without inundating y'all with jargon - let me say that the sole of the foot can be divided into 2 parts - each covered by branches from different nerves (if I begin to lose people, please indulge me - this is really cool for a ticklephile in anatomy).
Basically, tickling the arch of the foot is kinda like hitting 2 nerve switches. In short, there are a lot of nerve endings there (I know, thanks for the obvious).
I think the arch of the foot is the most ticklish part, since that is the part of the foot that remains off the ground and not in general contact with anything. The same thing with the armpit. Areas like that that are free from physical contact have "fresh" nerves that are still sensitized.
I could go on, but you get my drift. See you for next week's lecture, which will hopefully include a hands-on demonstration (models can still sign-up).

Hmmm......
I've never had each area specifically targeted so that I could gauge my reaction. I know that my feet are ticklish, but I couldn't really say one spot is more or less ticklish than all the others. This might take some research!

Nice thread!
Though I personally am not very ticklish...in my exploits as a "ler" I have found fairly consistantly that the spot just above the heel can be a fine spot if teased with loving care...and of course the ball of the foot...just as njjen!

Just wanted to let those interested know I smoked the anatomy portion of my last exam. Never let it be said that being a ticklephile doesn't come in handy sometimes.
That is all.
