October 1st 2006,  No one had ever heard of Obama, Jamie Lynn Spears was still a virgin, and The Spanking Spot was a fledgling spanking blog only 2 months old.  That was the last time Your Humble narrator ran a review of the venerable spanking site Firm Hand Spanking.  Much has occurred since then, Dear Reader,  and our wonderful sites grow and change.  I figured it would be about time to revisit one of the oldest and finest spanking sites on the Internet.

I’ll have to be honest with you Dear Reader,  When I first wrote this review I was a bit star struck.  You see,  this really was my first attempt at a review of a site I had loved for years.  Plus I had just landed interviews with Shannon Carson and Amy Dennison who were two of my favorite spankee’s.  Sadly,  Lovely Amy has left to better pastures recently though she gave us one last good farewell spanking.

Site Offerings and Cost
Firmhand spanking remains primarily a movie site with some nice high quality stills for supplemental enjoyment.  Also back in 2006 I mentioned this was a BIG site.  Well Dear Reader it has gotten alot bigger.  Their updates remain at 3 times a week.  If Dear Reader you stumbled over my blog back then and took Yours Truly’s advice and joined for a month.  It might be time to go back and check it out since they have added a eye popping 300 spanking movies since then.  Even more interesting is that the price has stayed the same over the past year and a half at a quite reasonable 24.95 per month membership.  That cost drops to 14.99 per month for a 6 month signup.

I never did the cost per hour calculation because this site is just unbelievably big and I would probably be here till next week trying to calculate them all.  However on their main page they list how many video’s are available which is stated at 689.  Assuming this is correct (and there is no reason to doubt it) at an average of 4 minutes apiece this would give you a mind numbing 45 HOURS of wonderful spanking to go though.  At the present price your talking a little over 50 cents per hour of spanking goodness,  and in these tough times Dear Reader its one of the best bangs for your buck (or euro).

They have also added quite a few new theme series to their lineup.  OTK Air Starring Samantha Woodley and Michelle Mcgowen,  Brat Camp with Chloe Elise, Born with it starring the delectable Abigail Whittaker just to name a few

The Girls
Oddly for all the work they have done in the past year and a half they have added precious few girls to the lineup.  The one thing I have always loved about FirmHand is that they used girls with little or no spanking experience for their earlier movies.  Perhaps I am just an old fuddy duddy but I fear that the industry has gravitated to simply hiring the spanking superstars rather then looking for new talent.  I can’t really fault the site since a number of them are doing it,  besides its much more cost effective to hire someone like Samantha Woodley for a shoot where you know she will be a true professional and take the spanking like a good girl rather then some unknown that might run screaming from the set holding her only partially spanked bottom.  It used to be that FirmHand worked with perhaps a dozen girls at the time giving us both variety and the lust for the unknown.  Now they deal mainly with “professionals”.  Now mind you Dear Reader its not that I don’t enjoy Samantha, Abigail Whittaker or Amelia Jane Rutherford with their rears held high receiving spankings.  No, that is a treat any day.  But I remember the first time I saw Karen Marshall get her first spanking and Dear Readers.  That spanking was real and the look on her face was true. You simply cannot act that.

But I suppose I cannot fault a site for going in the direction of its competitors.  And the girls are of course quite beautiful.  With such spanking talent as Kailee Robinson, Leia Ann Woods, Sierra Salem, Lizzy Madison, Madison Martin, Charlie Brandon, Krista Taylor , of course the aforementioned girls and new comer Courtni Kissell they still have a solid lineup of beautiful women who really need (and Get) a spanking.

Film Quality, Scenes, Outfits and of Course the Spankings!
Firmhand has recently upped their film quality quite a bit.  As an added Kudos to their innovation,  I think they might have cracked the quandary for site owners for what’s fair for the customer and what is cost effective for the site.  They issue all of their new movies in the older format at 640×480  768 kbs and their new format 1500 kbs.  BUT when they go into the archive they only keep the 768 kbs. Now David Pierson and I have had some friendly and spirited debates in the past about download quality with me arguing on the side of quality and he pointing out (rightly so) that many sites could not survive with the storage and bandwidth with such high quality.  Perhaps FirmHand has found a happy medium and an incentive for the customer to join for a longer term.  Regardless if it works or not I salute them for trying.

Scenes and outfits Firmhand has added quite a bit.  A new focus on schoolgirls is always welcome.  Plus the theme series have some GREAT outfits  (particularly OTK Air,  who wouldn’t want to spank a stewardess).  Though again being the lover of old time spankings I miss the father/daughter Uncle/Niece where they are simply spanked in their street clothes and tell the camera how much it hurt.  But on the other hand the production values have increased dramatically.

The Spankings as you can expect from FirmHand are HARD.  Not brutally so but hard enough I probably wouldn’t want to experience them.  Something however is lost with using almost exclusively professional spankee’s as I stated above.  They are beautiful and  take a good spanking but there is something to be said for the uncertainty of a non-professional getting her first butt beatings that I crave for

So do I still like the site?  I will be a member for many many more years and Dear Reader I will continue to bring you the updates from Firmhand as you truly deserve

My conclusion stands from 2006  barring the high Technical quality comment since they have addressed it with their new format.
