Ross Enters the Stratosphere with the Orbit Ring Vibe

Meet our first-ever guest toy reviewer, Ross. He (along with our female reviewer, Madison) won our "Be a Toy Reviewer" contest, so they're both here to give you the low down on what toys get them off! We'll rotate their columns so you get a fresh perspective, and to give them time to play with their toys! Here's Ross, with his take on the Orbit Ring cock ring vibe.

Throughout history, visionaries have been able to fuse two good ideas together to sprout one superior creation: the toaster oven, the sleeper sofa, the peanut butter cup. Now, we can add the Orbit Ring Vibe to the list of ingenuity made possible by modern technology. The concept is simple: combine a jelly cock ring with a vibrator. The result: a delightful and easy-to-use sex toy.

One of the best things about the Orbit Ring Vibe is its versatility. On a cock, it can be worn three ways. Point it up towards your belly button, and the vibrator stimulates the clit for face-to-face sexual positions. Turn it south, and it will buzz your balls or your perineum, depending on whether your wear it in front of or behind your sack. In lieu of a flesh-and-blood penis, the Orbit Ring Vibe can be slipped onto your favorite insertable toy for external vibrations.

I'll admit that at first, I was skeptical that the jelly material would make for an effective cock ring. I thought there would be too much give, but it actually worked very well. It's easy to put on and remove, and it made my cock rock-hard. What's not to love?

My girlfriend was extremely eager to try it out. First, we tried it out with the vibrator pointing north in a female-superior position. Once we put a little lube on it, she really liked not only the buzz but also the textured surface of the vibrator. Coupled with my über-engorged cock, she had her first orgasm in no time.

Then we decided to change things up, turning the Orbit Ring Vibe around. Behind my testicles, the vibrator tickled my perineum, which was entirely enjoyable. It's not a feeling that would result in a direct orgasm, but the sensation was unfamiliar in a wonderful way. A little later, we readjusted, moving the vibrator in front of my balls. I found that, for me, the stimulation was pleasing at first, but after a few minutes, it began to feel like a slow-motion kick to the crotch, the ache steadily creeping from my groin to my belly. I say this with the admission that my boys are extra-sensitive, and the mere idea of CBT (Cock and Ball Torture) sends me cocooning into a fetal position.

Really, the only downside to this toy is the jelly material. I'm a silicone snob, and that jelly stuff doesn't hold up over the long run. And it can't be properly disinfected, which isn't a problem for me, but can be for those who play well (and often) with others.

That said, the Orbit Ring Vibe is a real winner. Compact and user friendly, this toy can certainly spice up your sexual outing. Plus, it's not too pricey. A measly $48, and this puppy is yours to play with, to rotate, and to make your toaster oven seems as archaic as a sundial.
