EP 56: Laodai
Rope isn't just about knots—it's about connection, emotion, and the art of shared vulnerability. In this episode, Davide journey of finding purpose in rope, balancing aesthetics and safety, and embracing growth through introspection Davide, also known as Laodai, is a professional rigger and shibari artist with years of experience teaching, performing, and connecting through rope.

Through years of practice, study, and interactions with rope masters worldwide, Davide has refined a style rooted in emotional connection and meaningful experiences.

His ties are clean, minimalistic, and purpose-driven, with the untying process serving as the climax of the connection. Inspired by the rope community around the world, Davide embraces the concept of “1 heart = 1 style.” Similar hearts may lead to similar styles, but every journey should ultimately reflect the individual. This philosophy has helped him embrace the diversity in shibari styles and practices, even those far from his personal vision. Davide sees shibari as fluid and dynamic, adapting his techniques to different people and contexts. Sometimes, this means exploring styles that differ from his usual approach. He continues to study and draw inspiration from the global rope community.
