RANKED LIST

RARE
POSITIONS

The positions almost nobody actually does. Some are obscure for good reason. Some are quietly amazing and just under marketed. Heres the difference.

SCROLL

Rare positions are the ones outside the regular rotation. Some are rare because they are awkward. Some are rare because nobody told us about them. Heres the honest sort.

Rare But Worth Trying

These five positions are quietly excellent and dont show up in the standard rotation often enough.

Pretzel Dip, Banana Split, Captain, Close Breathing, and CAT. All five are real positions that most couples have never tried. All five deliver actual results when learned. Why are they rare? Mostly because position guides have favorites and these dont rank as visually dramatic. They land in practice anyway. Pretzel Dip, Banana Split, Captain, Close Breathing, CAT.

Rare For A Reason

These positions are rare because they SHOULD be. They look interesting in illustrations and disappoint in practice. Helicopter and Crab are both in this category. We have full guides on each but the verdict is similar: try once for the story, dont expect them to enter your rotation.

Helicopter, Crab, Wheelbarrow. The trio of try once and move on.

How To Approach Rare Positions

01
Look at images first
Rare positions often defy text description. Visual reference saves time.
02
Try once with low expectations
Treat the first attempt as exploration. If it lands, add to rotation. If it doesnt, no big deal.
03
Build from comfort positions
Get into a familiar position first. Transition into the rare one once warmed up.
04
Communicate during
Rare positions often need adjustments your bodies have not figured out yet. Talk through the setup.

The Bottom Line

Some rare positions are gems. Some are duds. The difference is whether they deliver in practice.

Try Pretzel Dip, Banana Split, Captain, Close Breathing, and CAT before you assume rare equals bad. Skip Helicopter, Crab, and Wheelbarrow as default rotation positions and treat them as one off conquests if at all.
