The long term plug I was looking for!

I'd been looking for a long-term use plug, and the Ryder does the trick! I love that it can be sterilized, and it's great to wear for a couple hours at a time. It would have been nice if it added more stimulation during sex, but I'm pleased.

Doesn't add much during sex.

Use

The Tantus Ryder is the second plug I've bought in a search for a really good long-term use plug. It is flared a little, but it's not very wide. It would be good for someone with some anal experience.

Material / Texture

This plug is silicone, and doesn't have a very strong smell to it. The smell it does have is subtle - you've got to get close to notice it. It's rubbery, but not unpleasant. The base is pretty flexible, and the top part is stiffer but bends slightly. I chose the copper color, and like the penny color of it.

Design / Shape / Size

This toy almost seems to be made for thrusting, it's so straight. What I like best about it is that the base is so small. This makes it pretty comfortable for wearing for longer periods of time. After a little while, even this small base can be a little uncomfortable, but I assume anything would. I was afraid it may be too wide to be comfortable, but the width is just right. For anyone that has had some anal experience, a little lube and some patience, and this plug will slip right in.

Performance

While the Ryder is a great plug for extended wear, it does not add much in the bedroom. The shape is too straight to push your partner into your g-spot, and I can't imagine it would stimulate the p-spot much either. While moving around, it provides enough stimulation to keep you feeling horny and naughty, but that's it's purpose. It's simply not a sex enhancer.

Care and Maintenance

Silicone toys are amazing, as far as maintenance goes. They can be totally disinfected in boiling water, or run through the dishwasher. Because I do not plan on sharing my plug, I normally wash it with antibacterial soap. Please note that the Ryder can only be used with water-based lube.

For storing, I've found that keeping it wrapped in a piece of cloth is less of a hassle than a plastic bag. The surface is almost sticky feeling, and around a plastic bag, it's like trying to get a cat into a bucket of water; it just clings to the edges and gets all difficult.

Packaging

Something that is always a plus for me is recyclable packaging. The Ryder comes in a clear plastic case, and can be recycled. It was actually a bit difficult to get it open, but the packaging isn't bad. It would make for a nice gift.

Personal comments

I'm pleased with the Ryder plug. I had been looking for a good plug to wear for a few hours at a time, and the Tristan I bought had too wide of a base. It would have been nice if there had been more color options, but the copper is a nice choice.

Follow-up commentary
Today, the Ryder is still one of my favorite plugs. It's filling, and the base is small but feels very secure. Unfortunately I don't wear is as often as I'd like, but it is still a very good plug to wear when out and about. Two thumbs up!

Thank you! I'm pleased I found what I was looking for. I'm not so sure I'd want it in all day, but I'm not sure any plug could be good all day..

What sort of shape do you think might make a plug better for enhancing sex?

Something slightly curved helps. Or a plug that tapers more. The Tristan is okay, and so far the most stimulation is from the Raging Hard Ons plug I have, because it curves more. It pushes him closer to my g-spot.

Very informative. Would you advise against this for someone new to the anal scene?

Maybe. My first plug was maybe half an inch wide, and from there I moved up with slim dildos and such. It would really depend on how comfortable the person is with anal play, because they would have to really relax and be patient getting this toy in.

I've had this one on my wishlist for ever, I think it's time I ordered it!

Is this still a favorite? Have you tried wearing it out of the house more often? If so, how comfortable is it for a truly extended play session (more than just a few hours)?

I just got this one and wore it all night at a Christmas party. It was comfy and stayed put!

  • Why should you never use silicone on a silicone toy?
    • Why should you never use silicone on a silicone toy?
    • Some, not all silicone lube will 'stick' to silicone material. I have read that some premium silicone lubes will work with some premium silicone materials. You can try some on the base and see, when I last tried it kinda etched the silicone material. (does that make sense) It left a indentation were the lube was.

      That's the basics, Some of the other members can give a more technical answer.
    • Some silicone lubes will bond to some silicones. This seems to be more of an issue the softer the silicone is, so toys like O2 and VixSkin will be more susceptible (makes sense, as the silicone has fewer crosslinks). Quality lubes seem to have less of a problem also, and it is likely that cheaper silicones might have more of a problem.

      I have tested quality silicone lube on several quality silicone toys and did not notice a permanent problem, but (a) the toys developed "hives" that lasted for a few hours (was gone the next day) and (b) it's really hard to clean the silicone lube off of the toys, but it can be done. While this is purely subjective, but it seemed that the silicone lube wasn't as "lubey" on silicone toys. I don't use silicone lube on silicone toys anymore - it's just not worth the trouble.

  • Is this going to be in stock soon?
    • If you haven't noticed, I've been going over my wishlist (see the O2 discussion) and I've noticed that this plug that I've wanted forever isn't even in stock. Will it be restocked?
    • That's funny. Two of the toys that I want to purchase are out of stock as well. The Vixen Ryder and Johnny. Then I noticed that several Vixen products are out of stock at the moment. I wonder when all of these toys will be restocked.
