Event description

About the Summit:

The A Frayed Knot rope event team is thrilled to host this one-of-a-kind weekend where the art of self-tying takes center stage. Whether you're a seasoned enthusiast or a curious beginner, this summit offers a unique opportunity to explore innovative techniques, share knowledge, and connect with fellow self-tying rope aficionados!

Let’s get tied up in learning, sharing, and growing together at the Self-Tying Summit!

Performances and parties are open to anyone 19+ with a ticket. Any play typically allowed at the space will be allowed at the party including partnered rope and play not involving rope at all.

Classes are exclusively intended for self-tiers. Many classes are likely applicable to partnered rope too, but this summit is about carving out space for self-tiers. Tops and bottoms may attend and audit (watch) or participate as self-tiers.

Play Parties

Any play (within LNK venue guidelines) is welcome at this party! Party rules can be reviewed at louisvillenk.com/rules. At this party, the venue will be set up with rope in mind. Extra floor play space and hardpoints will be set up, though the usual furniture (crosses, benches, etc) will be available too. Have a question at the party or need some help making the space work for your scene? Talk to an event team member, identifiable by their bright yellow lanyards and safety shears! 

Our venue offers:

  • play furniture (A frame style rigs, athletic mats, spanking benches, St. Andrews style crosses, etc)
  • luggage racks to store personal items and equipment
  • social area
  • snack bar and Keurig machine (food and beverage can also be brought in)
  • after-care/quiet area
  • outdoor smoking area
  • single occupancy bathroom
  • Free and ample paved parking within a couple minutes walk of the space. Handicapped parking is available directly beside the space. Please check the parking map in the ticket confirmation for detailed parking instructions!

Is this your first time? Don't worry, we'll be gentle! An event team member will give you a welcome orientation tour to show you with the space layout and highlight some of the most important rules and etiquette!

Event Rules and Expectations:

  • LNK Rules & Ban Lists: All LNK rules, ban lists, and expectations apply to our events in addition to any that we set. Please be sure to review these rules linked in the ticket confirmation. 
  • Consent: Be sure to negotiate BEFORE touching someone and/or someone's belongings AND before having a rope experience with someone, even at classes. If you're not sure how to navigate consent and negotiations, please ask SnappedGinger or event staff (identifiable by the yellow lanyards).
  • RACK Space: Interact at your own risk. If you have questions or concerns at the event, please talk to SnappedGinger or event staff.
  • Photos: Photos are allowed as long as EVERYONE in the photo consents to being in the photo. This includes people in the background! Blurring them out later is NOT a solution. The photo should not be taken if any part of anyone's body appears in the frame without their consent.
  • Consequences: Violating these rules may result in a time-out or permanent ban.

Please reach out to SnappedGinger on FL or via the "Contact Event Host" feature if you have any questions!
