Looking to start hanging. Yay or nay?

I would like to start hanging since it appears to be a passive activity, similar to pumping (which I am currently doing). I am uncut; would the best way to start be with a Bib or with a Vac hanger? I know I hear some people complain about the vac hangers. I was hoping to start with light weight and long duration (1-2 lbs, 1 hour or so). I’m mostly interested in adding hanging to my PE system because as a pumper I don’t seem to work my ligs much. Feedback appreciated!

Bib or vac it doesn’t matter, just down to personal preference. I’m uncut and use the vac with no problems, haven’t tried the bib though. Light weight and long duration is definitely the way to go, at least when starting out.

Definitely try out hanging. Tweaking put it best. I’ve got both though I haven’t tried out my BiB yet since I just got it. Will update soon enough though.

I’ve heard plenty of times that heavy vac work can bruise your glans, so I say go with the Bib.

I have never used a bib hanger but it strikes me as a device that takes up a lot of shaft space. Because I like to use IR light when hanging, and exposing a maximum surface area of skin to the light is desirable, a Bib hanger probably wouldn’t suit me, whereas the vacuum hangers cover very little of the shaft. If you don’t use heating while you’re hanging, then, since the bib-hanger is famous for being so comfortable even at high weights, I’d probably go with it. If you do use heat, I’d go with a vacuum solution.

Admittedly lazy of me, but suggestions on brand/where to buy a vac hanger? I’ve never researched them, only the Bib. Thanks.

if you want to gain more than let’s say 1 inch I would suggest you a Bib hanger. vac hanger can only handle up to 15 pounds. that might not be enough to produce gains after you have gained a certain length. I have used both a vac hanger and the bib. If I were you I would buy a bib.

Really is there anybody who could say no to more?

then the answer is found :) vac based hangers just can’t support the weights that the bib can. the bib is a one-time investment. needless to say it is much more difficult to handle.

+1, big length gains are more than likely going to come from many hours of heavy hanging. Its just very difficult to master, especially for an uncirced chap.

I used a sock hanger for three months and built up to 12 lbs. I was just starting to see gains when my wife stopped going to physical therapy so privacy became an issue. Started wearing a VacExtender Mod cap and sleeve as an ADS under cloths. I have built up to 20 oz for up to 10 hours a day. Is there a weight point (2 or 3 lbs) when it would be considered light hanging?

I guess I’m just nervous about the Bib. The skin on my penis isn’t very tough and I don’t want to bruise/tear my skin up. I take it there are some instructions/tips on using the Bib for uncircumcised folk? Also, I am 7.2” long and about 5.75-6” in girth…would you recommend the Bib Starter or the Original? I’m not concerned with money in the long run, I just want to ensure the best results and no injury.
