Brag or Keep Quiet?

It's hard to know whether to brag about the party piece - the ability to hang by the balls - or keep one's own counsel. Let's be honest: it is a kind of perversion, isn't it?

I can also insert six fingers inside my foreskin. That is another trick.

Surely I could insert my balls up my arse-hole?

I reckon I should be performing at a theatre in Amsterdam.

I'm meeting up with some swingers soon, in the Canary Islands; and, although I've told them about my very low hangers, I haven't - as yet - intimated that I can hang from them!

Many people simply would be incredulous till they saw this blog.

My balls were a bit tight today; nevertheless I headed into the garage and hanged for a full two minutes. It's getting easier, in a way. Less intense. I've raised the rope height, which means that I hang with my head off the ground and can relax more.

I mount the step-ladder at a side angle; then when I'm hanging it doesn't get in the way.

I might try for two and a half minutes on Saturday. Habakuk, what is your average suspension period?

Corralejo Swingers

I'm meeting a pair of swingers in a few weeks' time, in the Canary Islands. They are both staying in the same resort, so hopefully the female half and I shall have some fun.

I told her that if she could get my balls in her mouth I'd buy her a drink!

120 Sec. Stretch

Just a quick message to let everyone know that my balls are still attached and I'm preparing to show my equipment off to girls and females generally on El Cotillo beach and Corralejo!

I get a real turn-on when I see them ogling, especially the younger ones.

I stretched a full two minutes today; more if the adjustment process is counted - closer to 150 seconds.

Still after all this time, I still get a fair bit of chafing, even with talc. Perhaps the longer suspension times are a factor too.

There is no gain without pain. It's not painful though. Just a little discomfort and it wears off.

HABAKUK SUSPENSION BALL RING.

HABAKUK SUSPENSION BALL RING.

Instruction to use the ring

Description of the ring.

The ring is different from other rings because it does not require bolts to keep it together. It consists of two halve stainless steel inner rings, which a tapered conical outer surface. A third bronze outer ring with a conical inner surface, exactly and accurately matching the outer surface of the inner rings, slides over the two inner ring halves and locks them together. The taper angle is such that when the rings a pressed together, they can only be prized apart with some force. My own ring can be unlocked a bit too easy. The ring shown in the attached drawings is less tapered and it may require some more force to get the separated.
A fourth blue plastic ring is optional and purely decorative. This also applies to the beads glued with Araldite n the grove of the outer ring. The whole assembly is meant to be more beautiful then the standard rings on the market, and designed to be there permanently.
The inner hole fits me loosely. It must not be too tight, to avoid circulation problems. To suspend, I slip a rubber strip (see pictures) between balls and inner ring to make the fit more tight for suspension. The fit must be a tight as possible for suspension. At times the balls may swell a bit because of excessive exercise. A bit of Vaseline or baby powder may help to make them slide over the skin more easily. I guess that the size of the hole is not a one fit all. Other users may have to experiment with temporary wooden block to establish their individual ideal size.

How to fit the ring.

Before fitting this ring one may have to pre-stretch the scrotum a bit using a temporary wooden block or other steel rings. To fit it I first slide the outer ring over the balls. (and the plastic ring if used) Make sure that the balls are washed and not greasy. Any Vaseline or powder on the inner surface of the ring may prevent a good lock with the inner rings. Next I tie an old necktie around the balls and stretch them away from the body, by tying them the necktie to my bedpost. This stretches the balls and reduces the diameter of the skin and inner tissue between the balls and the body, so that the inner rings fir around the easily without pinching the skin. I now put the ring halve with the centre pins sticking upwards below the stretched ball sack, and the other halve carefully on top of it making sure that no skin is caught between the centring pins. Now push the rings gently together why turning them around. This way any skin and hair caught in between is pulled free. Keep the firmly together and slide the plastic ring and the outer ring over the inner rings. Some hair may be caught between the rings, so do not push the rings firmly together yet. Allow some movement and pull the hair out with your free hand. Now push the rings firmly together. Once you suspend from this or hang a weight from the rings, you will find it difficult to separate the rings without force.

The suspension bracket.

The bracket shown in the drawing fits snugly around the inner rings which protrude below the outer ring, and support the outer ring. Because of its halve closed ring, there is no way that the ring can slide out, if one suspends from it.

With greetings from Habakuk, and I wish you all a good stretch and suspension.

Trouble Posting Links

I can only apologize, folks, for being unable to post the information which Habakuk sent me. I am unable to copy and paste it.

Perhaps, Habakuk, if you could post it directly on the comment column with a link?

With images, I can normally edit pictures; but I simply can't do it this way for some reason!

Tim
Habakuk has kindly sent me more information about the equipment he uses for ultimate scrotal suspension. I've been having trouble reducing the size (oops, double entendre!), but here are the links again. I hope they work.

Longest Stretch Ever

I managed more than two minutes this afternoon. The second rope at the side, to lower and raise manually, is a good help.

I can feel the longer stretch, because the part between my balls and arse-hole is slightly sore! My balls aren't, though.

I think I'll raise the rope even higher, because my head still can't drop down freely without my touching the floor.

I'm having trouble reducing the size of Habakuk's graphic instructions in a previous blog, by the way. I can only apologize; and I'll try again.

Raising the Rope

I did 90 seconds today. I'm finding that the rope length means that I am too close to the floor. When I ease down, I partially rest my head on the ground and raise it up off the ground a few inches to take the full strain.

This means that my head is almost horizontal to the floor and this position is very hard to sustain. The answer is simply to raise the rope several inches more, so that I can let my head drop and my body can take less strain.

I have also tied another rope to the rafter so that I can pull myself up with it, rather than straining up to grab the suspension rope.

I'll try for 2 minutes the next time, if it's a good day!

Your pal, TIM.

Habakuk Apparatus

I'm most grateful to Habakuk for sending me specific details of the equipment he uses personally for scrotal suspension.

Habakuk believes strongly that the methods he uses should be shared with others - those who dare! I, too, believe in the spirit of sharing knowledge with like-minded enthusiasts - why not?

So here it is. Please do let us all know how you are getting on re scrotal suspension - or swinging by the balls, as I like to call it. Do you intend to construct any of Habakuk's appliances? Let us know.

Whilst I certainly possess low hangers, especially given my compact size and weight of 8 stone 12lbs, I don't have the stretch of Habakuk. I think he's probably unbeatable in that sense. Now there's a challenge!

Sorry about the Confusion!

I am the Mingemasher, Swinging by the Balls, and Tim to my pals on the web like Kbar and Habakuk! Sorry about any confusion - I often comment under the Anonymous label because I can't be bothered to sign out of my successful mainline blog and sign in to Swinging By The Balls!

Does that clarify matters? I'm as transparent as Jordan's bazookas!

I swung - if that is the correct grammar - for a minute this afternoon: my skin is a bit tender from the block trial on Thursday. I've slapped some cream thereon.

I don't think my balls are stretching a lot more, by the way. Perhaps if I increased the stretching time to more than 90 secs...

Mixed News

Hi Folks,

An especial welcome to Habakuk, who has sent me a message. Habakuk, I wanted to inquire about the wooden block and the iron suspension bar; but I've managed to get the block constructed, thanks to another reader.

The mixed news is that I have tried the block this afternoon and found it uncomfortable compared to the basic rope method I've been using for many months.

I guess I'm used to the rope and baize. Is it not a bit pernickety assembling the block around your balls; ensuring the cord stays away; trying not to nip your ball sack when tightening it etc?

With the rope, I'm up and away in seconds. I'd concede that there must be a more even stretch with the block method.

I guess I'll stick to my tried and tested technique, attempting two minutes and more on good days! I'm very light and nimble; perhaps that is a factor for me.

Habakuk - matter of interest - what country do you live in?

All the best,

Tim

Technicalities

The block is almost ready. I bought the nylon cord, thick bolts and wingnuts yesterday; and they're all fitted. I've bevelled the hole and sanded the edges of the block.

I'm wondering how to hook the cords up. I do have a few basic "S" hooks, so I could experiment with attaching the hook to my original rope; then suspending the cord from the other end of the hook.

Any thoughts on that? The steel girder is too high up. I wouldn't dare attach the cord directly to it in case I slipped and fell on to the concrete floor!

Block Work


I've made a start on the wooden block. I still need to drill holes lengthwise for the two bolts; bevel the hole at one side; get two bolts; and drill four more holes for the cord which I also need to find. Do I saw the block in half before I drill the holes? So I saw it in the middle of the hole across the shortest point in the middle, about 2.5"?

Wooden Block

I'd be keen to acquire a wooden block - similar to Habakuk's - for stretching. The one Habakuk used wasn't big at all, but it looked solid and thick.

Pity B&Q DIY stores didn't sell them in self-assembly packs! I'd need step-by-step directions about the type of wood, dimensions, where to cut it in half, where to drill the holes, what length of bolts and any other specifications.

Any thoughts, anyone? More to the point, any carpenters?

Six Pack Exercise

Hanging by the balls is a great way of exercising your tummy muscles. It is, for me, at any rate. I managed 90 seconds today. There is always chafing afterwards, so I slap some moisturizer on.

I know I could do more than 90 seconds, were it not for the strain on my stomach muscles; and that is despite being fit with a four-pack at least.

As well as the stretch, one needs to stretch right up to grab the rope at the end, in order to pull my self up and get my feet on the ground.
