What do you think of this?

I actually hang like #1 and I think I should hang more like the 2nd drawing but I cant exactly figure out how do it. Is it actually okay if I continue to hang the way I do??

Can someone please help me cause I dont know what I should do and I dont think anyone will read this thread becaues of the dumb title.

I dont hang (yet) but to me, #1 looks too close to the glans. If I were you, I’d hang like you show in #2

I tried to hang like the second but it always ended up bown by my glans link in #2.

I dont think its too close to my glans because I dont start wrapping the theraband until 1.5 inch at least away from glans. My question is why does the hanger set uneven in a way like in #1. Do you see how it sort of hooks forward? Is that okay or should I do something about it and if so what should I do???

so i guess know one can help me with this :(

What kind of hanger are you using pyr?

I’ll giver a shot. I’ve hanged for a period with the Bib that I somewhat crudely fashioned on my own (a piece of black rubber pipe conector and a band clamp with accompanying screwdriver to tighten it) and am currently using the Redi-Stretcher, which I haven’t quite mastered yet, but recommend just for the sheer ease. Anyways I concur that #2 looks better. The farther away you can get it from the glans the better, it may not hurt immedieatly, but over time you could be sorry, remember your glans is a very sensitive little bundle of nerves, delicate, don’t test it.

I am a big fan of wrapping as far away from the glans as is possible, that’ll help the skin bunch up under the hanger and protect the glans as the weight just generally settles in that area. Because that’s where the hanger will usually stop, whether you have it contacting the glans, or have some bunched skin between them. Obviously, the skin between them is a better option (putting a helmet on the head so to speak).

As for how you change that hang there, does it feel like the hanger is loose around your dick? that looks somewhat remniscent to me of a loose ring on a poll. Of course it could have to do with the way your skin is bunching, maybe you’ve got more skin on the bottom than the top?

If that’s the tightest you can get it and it still doesn’t feel really tight on your dick, then I’d suggest getting out your tools and decreasing the hanger’s size. or get/make a new one.

It can also be the tightness of your wrap. If you feel it slipping and sliding down your dick, you can get ropeburn (I’m recovering from my latest bumbling there, I’d simultaneously weakened my skin by plucking the day before and slathering on the Kalo lotion, so do as I say, not as I do, hehe). When I used the bib, I liked the wrap as tight as you could get it and still be able to get the blood past it to squeeze the blood out of your dick before tightening your hanger (Never Hang Erect is what I’ve been told, and I’m willing to believe it), of course you do leave some there, but not alot (like in a heavy flacid).

Now if it has nothing to do with tightness, then there could be something unusual about your dick, some rather hard area that part of the hanger won’t go over as well as the rest of your dick. I’d require more information that I actually don’t want to know about another guy :D . In short, through PE you’re going to learn the ins and outs (heh) of your dick rather well in order to figure these things out.

I’m using a small Bib, and thanks for the reply and the PM. I assure that the hanger is not loose. Its snug. I also don’t think it has to do with tightness of wrapping because I have adjusted that considerably and came to the same result. I’m pretty sure my problem is with my enormous balls and huge turkey neck. Most of the time when I hang BTC my balls press and come apart against my cheeks. I’m mean that they seem to rest on each side of my dick but my flaccid dick with the hanger doesn’t go past my balls so my balls come into contact with the hanger when hanging BTC. But right know I’m pretty sure that the reason why I hang like this is cause my turkey neck but I did notice that it didn’t happen with my other modified bib. Thanks for the replies, and if you can think of anything else to help me please post. O by the way does the Kalo lotion really work ShaggyDog

If the wrap is touching the glans, then take it off and reatteach until it doesnt.

There are some old posts about the upturn. Here is one.

Bibs come with the strap angled to cause this. I adjusted mine to be more in line with the center of the hanger.

Here’s a pic to show what I’m talking about. I’ve noticed there is some variation in the strap angle as they come from the factory.

The red line would be centered. The strap shown is close to the angle I prefer, slightly below center. A little “hook” or upturn is ok and seems to work better in the outward and lower angles than not having any.

The yellow line or lower would be too severe for me, causing too much of a curve. It would also focus a lot of stress on top at the rear of the hanger. Not good.

Bib usually recommends attaching with your shaft fairly low (more toward the bottom teeth/hinge than the top teeth) in the hanger. That helps, but the strap angle matters too.

Bib:The slight angle gives more gripping power to the hanger. However, it should not be severe. If too severe, you are not placing your shaft low enough in the shaft well. Be sure your bottom adjustments are wide enough, and that you open the hanger completely when you place your shaft in it.

Thanks hobby a lot but what do you mean by putting you shaft lower in the hanger? In the other post also Bib thinks that the wrapping could also be to blame. What does Bib mean when placing your shaft low enough in the shaft well? By the way my bottom hex nuts or whatever are almost as wide as they go I mean the practically inside the little space or cubby for them. I hope that makes sense. Also how do you adjust strap angle.

I edited my post above to be clearer.

Lower meaning riding deep in the hanger as opposed to sitting higher near the top bolt.

> By the way my bottom hex nuts or whatever are almost as wide as they go I mean the practically inside the little space or cubby for them.

He was talking about the adjustment nuts being out far enough to make the bottom of the hanger wide enough. If the bottom gap is too narrow the shaft will have to ride higher in the shaft well (nearer the top bolt).

If you haven’t yet, read the product guide here . I’m attaching a pic with some more stuff about adjustment drawn in. Might help.

Make sure your hanger is adjusted properly before messing with the strap angle. A little upturn is normal and nothing to worry about. It’s only a problem if severe. Bib attaches the straps off center on purpose.

If you do eventually loosen the nuts holding the strap on to move it, be careful not to strip the bolts when retightening. That wouldn’t be an easy fix.

I’m glad hobby came along to answer, I know little about turkey neck, since it’s not one of my problems.

As for whether the kalo lotion works, I’m still undecided, the hair does seem thinner, but it also is still there. Perhaps prolonged use would benefit me, or perhaps I’ll see a dramatic change shortly, if it does work you can rest assured that I’ll be highly vocal about it, just be patient on that.

However as a precaution, from now on I’m going to wait 3 days after plucking and while applying the kalo before trying to hang. This latest bumble cost me 2 weeks of good hanging time!

(note: I’m not saying for certain that kalo was the cause of my rash, there were many factors: new wrap, new soap, using a wrap for the first time with a new hanger, several kinds of moisturizer and rash medicines. and i didn’t think to limit the new factors before it became a problem. My suggestion is to only try ONE new thing at a time, see if there’s a problem, THEN move on. People have said that to me before but I didn’t listen, I guess I need to learn the hard way :shrug: )
