The Waterfall
Also known as head off the bedgravity rushinverted head
The Waterfall has the receiving partner lie back with their head and shoulders hanging just off the edge of the bed — the rush of blood to the head adds an intense sensory twist.
The gist
A novelty twist on classic positions: letting the head hang slightly off the mattress edge sends blood toward the head, which many people say heightens sensation and the feeling of release. It's a brief thrill rather than a lingering position, and it's easy to combine with missionary or cowgirl.
Step by step
The receiving partner lies back with head and shoulders just past the bed's edge.
The other kneels or stands at the edge, or takes a top position.
Keep it short — a minute or two is plenty for the effect.
Help the receiving partner sit up slowly afterward.
Tips
- Skip it if anyone is prone to dizziness, blood-pressure issues, or headaches.
- Only let the head hang a little, and come up slowly to avoid a head-rush stumble.

Missionary
Missionary is a front-to-front position where one partner lies on their back and the other faces them from above — prized for eye contact, closeness, and easy communication.
Edge of the bed
The edge-of-the-bed position has one partner lying at the edge of the mattress while the other kneels or stands at the side — an ergonomic way to solve height and angle.
