Thanks for the support and information, and you too DLD. You guys are really helping me clear up a lot of confusion

I've noticed many guys on this forum talking about staying strapped in for very long sessions. DLD, you mentioned that if i'm getting discoloration, i should be taking breaks every hour. Does this mean that these guys are probably not getting discoloration? I can't imagine it would be safe to stay strapped in for 6-12 hours with the level of discoloration I'm getting... but it is kind of a hassle to excuse myself to the bathroom for 10 minutes every hour, especially if I'm at work

One more thing i've been wondering... how do you know when it's time to increase the traction/add bars/increase the length you're stretching at?

Also, if you want the bathroom break to only be 1 minute every hour get yourself a VLC attachment. The VLC is literally 30 second on and off. You can remain in the SizeGenetics longer also.

Discoloration in the SizeGenetic is ALWAYS temporary, color will return after you have taken it off. This takes maybe 10 minutes tops. I would only stay in the SizeGenetic for 30-60 minutes before taking it off, returning good circulation and restart in. Now, this break also gives you the opportunity to tighten up the traction, which can loosen over an hour.

Well, I was getting a lot of questions answered on a different forum, and they made it sound like discoloration of any sort- temporary or not- was to be avoided at almost all costs. Even an SG rep told me this... so that's why i've been so hung up on it

The traction still has a habit of loosening within the first 1 or 2 minutes of setting it.... but i'm taking templ's advice and forgetting about it for the time being

I'd be very interested in that. Only thing is I live in South Korea... do you know of any sites that ship internationally?

Something I've been wondering.... how do you know when it's time to increase the traction and/or length you're stretching at?

I believe you can get the VLC to South Korea but to be sure send Ron at VLC a email to know for sure. He is a great guy and will help you through the process.
 
Great, will do

Something I want to make sure of: I'm fastening the strap about .5-1" behind the glans, so when I'm locked in, the skin from that space between the fastening point and the coronal ridge is bunched up around the glans. Is this okay?

That is fine but once you have the VLC that set up will change, change for the good. Let me know if you need any help with your order.
 
I am having some trouble figuring out what exactly it is I need to order.... there are so many different parts. I contacted Ron but his replies take a while- i assume he's busy- and my comfort strap is starting to break so i want to place the order ASAP. Do you know what parts I need to order for the SG mod? (I'm circumcised)

Can you cover the glans with the skin of your shaft? If so they you can just buy the vlc package

I'm not exactly sure in what way you mean. If I push the glans inwards like a turtle, then yeah. I'm not overly concerned about foreskin restoration though
 
You mean this one?

Kit

Ron just got back to me and recommended this one:

Kit

I'm not sure what the difference is between the two if I'm only going to be using it with the SG

I don't know the difference either only that one has room for attaching weights. Theres not a big price difference maybe its a good optoon

Yes, that is the right package. Just be sure to buy through this link: VLC
 
Thanks guys, and thanks for the discount link DLD. Ended up getting the basic kit, should be here within a month. Until then I'm going to be using the noose

I also answered your post in another thread and I am waiting on your answer.

I don't think anyone is wearing a strap type extender for 6-12 hours without taking it off for breaks. I've been using one for a good while now, and I can go a little over 2 hours now, as you get accustomed to it and fine tune your wrap, you should be able to increase your time between breaks too. Sometimes I still screw up the wrap or attachment and have to cut it short, but you'll know from the feeling when that happens.

I can attest to that, its basically impossible to do without injuring yourself. The longest ive heard someone go is 3-4 hours and even that is a very long time for a vet. Back when I did lower tension switching between upwards and downwards. I wore it for some 2-3 hours at most in each session. This was with a velcro strap as well and wrapping for the head to increase comfort. Post pictures of you wearing it and I can figure out whats going on and why its so difficult for you. Ive seen a lot of people completely misuse SG and wear it in ways that make me cringe because of how uncomfortable they wear it.

All great advice. I suggest never going past the 60 minute mark as this is the point tissue can be put at risk but this does vary in men, some can go much longer. In the beginning I would start with 30 minute sets and work up 30 min. at a time to find your max.
 
Just got the VLC tugger in the mail. It came with a strap too; I'm curious about its effectiveness for PE vs the SG

In the meantime, I'm going to be getting used to the VLC. Wearing it right now, seems frightfully easy for it to slip off if i don't get a secure vacuum, but if i do then it seems very secure. Had to add on some extra bars to make up for the skin being rolled in around the cone. Will update after a few days of use

A few things I'm wondering about:

1. with the noose and strap on the SG, i had to watch out for coldness and numbness. Is there anything I should look out for as signs of potential damage when using the VLC tugger?

2. since the amount of shaft skin i'm rolling around the glans will inevitably be at least a little different every time, how do i measure/know what length I should be stretching at? Obviously the general rule of "at least more than your FSL" here is useless, since some of the shaft is rolled up

3. Do I need to be taking breaks as frequently as with a strap/noose?

4. Does the shaft skin I'm rolling up around the glans get stretched as well? I don't understand how it would

Sorry for all the questions; this is a totally new method for me

The penis will become cold with any restriction but the VLC is the least restrictive out of any of the attachments. I would shoot for an hour at first and see how things are, from there you can increase time. Since the VLC is so quick on and off you may just want to take a break every hour.

You will see your maximum stretched size just like you would using any attachment. The measurement that matters most is the one when you are not wearing you SG.

As I said above, the VLC is the least restrictive so, like some men, you may be able to go hours without taking off. But, again, as I said above, I would stick with 1 hour sessions and work your way up.

No the shaft skin is not stretched.
 
Thanks for the info DLD

1 thing that has come up is a burning sensation in the scrotum skin near the base of the device. At times this becomes so incredibly painful I'm forced to take it off. When I do, the skin in the area where the shaft meets the scrotum (which is also around the base ring of the device) is red and a little raw, and has an indentation of the base ring on the skin. Sometimes this happens 20 minutes after attaching the SG, sometimes 1 hour, and sometimes it doesn't happen at all (or it does, but it's very very mild). However, this pain is immediately if i elevate my leg or move the device so it's pointing up. Do you know what's causing this? My guess is either too much traction (which doesn't make sense, because I'm barely going beyond my SFL) or it's something to do with the position of the device when I'm walking/sitting with it

Not quite sure I understand what you mean by "You will see your maximum stretched size"... currently, my SFL with the cone on is about 14-14.5cm (without, it's 16cm). So what I'm wondering is, what's going on with that 1.5-2cm I have rolled up around the cone?
