Butt hitting at carnival?
Now look what you've done!
I was wondering that myself.
At my school's carnival those weapons were floating around and I saw one of the diablos get it swinging over his head and take out about 3 unsuspecting platefuls of just served mangolo, or mangoofo, or whatever you call it.
Hell hath no fury as a 4th grader covered in mangolo.

It relates as symbolism to slavery. Very long story... In the earlier carnivals, they used whips, not balloons. Aren't we glad that changed!!! Imagine a Diablo coming at you with a whip!!! I have only seen three "comparsas" that still use whips and people give them ample way to pass through 
Some of the costumes have also changed, some of the traditional ones such as the platano man, a person who made up entire outfit from plantain leaves, the tin man, his costume made entirely from cans are hardly ever seen. BUt many of the traditional ones are still around mixed in with the new generation costumes; such as the tar covered people (also symbolizing slaves), The roba la gallina (steal the chicken) is the man dressed like a woman with the classic HUGE bottom.:ninja:

The goat stomach balloons that Tony C refers to are only used in Santiago. These used to be the norm, but for some reson that I'm still to understand, the La Vega diablos use these "new" balloons that are filled with something that feels like concrete! Actually I've heard that they cover their balloons with the same material that is used to repair cars after they've been in an accident.
I saw some goat stomache balloons here in Santo Domingo yesterday. But still don't know why they hit!
They are actually made of pig or cow bladder, not the stomach of a goat.
Why the hit? Tradition.

Hitting has been going on for over 50 years
I don't know the reason. All I know is that old diablos used to hit all sexes equally. In fact, in the past, men used to be chased more often than women. Children were just threatened, but hardly hit.
Nowadays hitting women is the preference. There seems to be almost a machista pleasure about ridiculing women and seeing them trying to flee the wrath of the diablos. The bigger the ass, the better. Diablos hardly bother with skinny women. If you got big ass, big boobs and show off a lot, expect the diablos to swarm over you like bees to honey.
In La Vega, there are no exclusions. No one is safe. Prior to the last two years, the Vegas' diablos would stuff several layers of the goat's gut and dry each layer individually and the balloon would get harder and harder, to the point where it would almost be solid. Las vegas Diablos initiated the one balloon tradition. The old tradition had as many as 15. The old 50's diablos balloon was flexible and soft and it would only sting. As it got harder it became bruising. Whips continue to be used by Santiago's diablos, but they use it as a ritual against each other, but never hit directly.
Nowadays it is suspected that Las Vegas' diablos are using tire rubber balloons which can even be deadly. Two years ago someone was killed with a hit. Broken bones are common.
Another reason diablos don't hit men as hard as women is the fear of retaliation. There have been gun fights over extreme hits.
So if you are a woman, with a big ass, nice tits and showing off your body, stay away from La Vega and other carnivals.
Faggots love to get hit in the ass and go to carnivals to challenge the diablos with their best hit. Some use pillows and other stuffing. There is also a pseudo-masochist group in Santo Domingo that goes to La Vega for fun.

if you like it, smack it!
I was downtown in Santiago yesterday for the parade, and I think the hitting thing is prety simple, if you see a nice butt, you get to express your appreciation by swatting it with a balloon.
Given the general conservativeness in Dominican culture it must be a welcome release from the usual restraint they are pressured to show in public, I enjoyed it anyway, and was flattered that a few of the ladies were kind enough to choose me as a target for swatting and even a mouthful of confetti.

I went to La Vega for Carnaval with my novia. She was constantly hiding. I don't mind the good natured swat for Carnaval. But there were some guys taking it way too seriously. One body builder type, would strut like a WWF wrestler after inflicting major pain on people.
Little kids had no smiles on their faces, they looked angry as they swung away. I thought Carnaval was a celebration and it was for most people.
I was the big "stick out like a sore thumb" gringo carrying a $3,000 video camera. When one big Diablo that was getting too damn serious, started chasing my novia, I clothes lined him.
Then in rapid succession, 3 Diablos attempted to whack my rather large butt. First guy, got me pretty good, and I almost dropped the camera. Second guy I batted it away with my fist. . . . . . . . . .third guy, I caught it and started bopping him on the head, ever so playfully;-) Three guys ran to help him, so I just said I was "bromiando".
In Monte Christe they still do the whip thing. I want to go there next year and capture that on tape.

carnaval de Mao is the best if you have soft ass.
The last carnaval is coming soon. It will be in Mao. I loved this carnaval because the diablos don't hit people, rather celebrate the event in colorful costumes. The girls are the biggest attraction of the event. Most girls come out to see this carnaval because there is no fear of getting hit.
I Think its within a week or so. I will find out the date and post it soon.

I am told that the Mao's carnaval is tomorrow (sunday). If you like to go to a carnaval without having your butt painted red and purple, go to valverde de Mao and see the cool diablos in brilliant color costumes.
have fun.
P.S. Guys, if you want to see the prettiest slim girls of DR, come to mao.
