Flip Hole


The Flip Hole is the latest product by Tenga. If you don't know what a Tenga is then Lookie here. Those who are familiar with Tenga will know that it is a health care product for pet dolphins. As you know, dolphins need to be waxed regularly to keep them alive and healthy.


Below: The Flip Hole contains state of the art Japanese technology to ensure that ones dolphin maintains optimum health. For example, in the event that ones dolphin starts to foam at the mouth, the "Shield Flap" will ensure that the foam stays in the inner chamber.
When ones dolphin docks with the inner chamber, the "Vacuum Pump" will suck ones dolphin into docking position using turbine engines while the "Side Rib" and "Wing Gate" sensors interface with the surface of the dolphin to help with the process of waxing and check for structural damage.

The "Lip Flap" applies constant pressure to the tail of the dolphin and when used after a while, the dolphin gains strength in the tail enabling the owner to control the dolphin guiding it left, right, up and down and extract/detract at will.
The "End Orbs" clamp on to the head of the dolphin which relay vital signs and that are transmitted by BlueTooth to your computer. The orbs also act as a motion capture unit and sends the motion coordinates in that BlueTooth signal. One can then use the motion capture data to make a 3D version of the dolphin and render it as a YouTube movie or even wallpaper - clever stuff.
The most advanced item of technology in the Flip Hole chamber is the "Click Orb" that is made of material mined from the fifth moon orbiting the remote planet of Taurus. It relays a telepathic image of the dolphins into the owners mind so the owner can be sure that the dolphin is alive and well during the waxing process.

Below: Remove main chamber from the mother dock. Apply waxing lubrication.




These circles are actually SPFP's or "Silver Plate Floating Pads." The middle plate increases vacuum pressure within the chamber, while the top and bottom plates apply pressure to the head or tail of the dolphin - again, one should consult with ones dolphin before using the plates.

And how much does all this technology cost? A mere $99 USD from Kanojo Toys. Are you ready to Bala Ba Ba Ba?

Oh, Japan, they come up with the best tools for Dolphin Waxing. I'd totally buy this and try it out if I were a guy. Lol.
But this post is made of pure hilarity. I like the whole Dolphin Waxing concept thing you came up with. Haha. XD No one can make it sound as good and funny as you. LOL!

Tenga goes Sci-Fi?! Talk about so awesome it gives me a headache.
I guess I'm going to sleep well upon losing brain cells trying to understand the whole thing... I mean so relieved to know this will revolutionize men's lives.
The article on the cetacean and the whales was cute otherwise.

$99 for unlimited use of an artificial female genitalia, indeed it's the bang for the bucks version of tenga!
It's kinda like how 8800GT 512MB is compared to 8800GTX. ^^
Btw, my Japanese tutor will be going to Nagoya in 1-2 days, and I asked him to get me a tenga, an oppai mousepad and a Shana mousepad. Maybe I should contact him to get me this new version of tenga, instead. ^^

This is some kinda weird invention, and also a crazy one. How come Japanese people never think about their morals. And they also created things like this. They even created it with science!? I'm a bit confused.@_@
I understand that there are something that needs to be 'fulfilled'. Even I 'fulfilled' it sometimes. But...since I'm always try to keep my morals up, I would say no to Tenga and the likes.

99$ is a really good price for something as innovative as this though. Too bad I am not yet 18, so cant really by this, unless thru someone else, which would be highly embarassing. When you think about it, should dannychoo.com be rated an 18+ website? ^-^

this = closer to dolphin stroke-able persocon
so the ammo for its "reload" is cheaper since this thing can withstand 1000 dolphin burst

Bother... I bought a couple of standard Tengas last month while visiting Tokyo, but these ones weren't available yet.
I've only used one of them so far, it definitely does a good job of putting a shine on one's dolphin with a minimum of mess...
I'm keeping the second one for a special occasion. (Thankfully my suitcase was not opened by customs upon returning, which could have led to an Austin Powers' style scene.)

http://totoro88.vox.com
I'm curious to the point.. that it almost seems cool. ^^; It just shows that design (art+science) can make anything seductive.
There should be a compartment that collects sperm whale specimens that can be sent away for impregnation. For serious. That would be the best conspiracy ever to amp up Japan's population.

Great invention. A little too high tech isn't it?

It was all still mildly understandable up till the "Quattro Wave" part. Then I completely got buried under the techno-mumbo-jumbo. Who would make a render of the dolphin and send it to Youtube?!?! I guess it's a hidden fortune that stage6 has gone.
I wonder if there's anyone on dannychoo.com who takes the translations for this space-age product LITERALLY...
