New To Pumps

[hooksvsbird]

LOL last night was massive fail! Somehow the ring wound up on the sleeve and not on my shaft. AQt that point I wasn't going to take it back apart and put the ring tool back on there. Why in the hell is getting the ring off so damn hard? How do you guys do it without breaking suction?

Hooks,

I am trying to visualize what you are doing with the ring???

Maybe you can step us thru... For instance you are putting the ring over the tube first, yes ... and near the bottom??

Also be sure to lube the outside of the tube where u are going to stretch the rings over.

Are you using a Encore with the ring Ejector?

Pass along what u can about your procedure and we can probably help.

I do not slip it off the cylinder. Instead, I slide it down my lubed shaft after I exit the cylinder. I then kegel in some new blood to bring up again to a hard erection.

I am using an obson ercaid esteem. I used the ring applicator tool to place it on the tube. I did not lube the outside of the tube however. Then I tried to pull it off the tube with my index finger along the indention on the tube. Probably not lubing the tube is the issue. I will make another test run tomorrow. Unfortunately I won't see the GF till next Saturday again.

Hooks,

OK, the Ring Applicator-cone-shaped-plastic-thingy.

I forgot all about that. I haven't used one for years. I just stretch the rings over the tube using fingers. It is a skill you can learn -- starting with the easiest largest rings .. then you can learn to slip even the tightest ones onto the tube with ease.

A ring has only accidentally shot across the room a couple of times in hundred (thousands?) of ring loadings.

Yep the dry ring material stretched against the acrylic tube can really develop some stiction and be impossible to slip off.
I use astroglide (CVS generic brand) for the lube.

Well I tried reloading the medium size ring by hand but it just wouldn't go. The tool was in the bathroom and at that point the GF I don't think wanted to wait.

I will try lubing the outside.

[hooksvsbird]

Ok so I think the medium sized ring will work but I got a little scrotum caught in it and had a bubble. Erection was pretty good but not steel hard. I want an erection that does not bend at all in front of the ring. Is this possible?

[JimStars]

Hooks,

Yes you can, but it will take two rings to do it.

So, more complications for you!

And don't forget the Penile Sleeve!

Isn't it great to have an understanding companion that wants to be involved.
