"Packing the Tube"

I do not pack my tube at all - at the base there is packing I suppose but than midshaft and onwards, not even close since I have a tree trunk dick. My question is - is girth hit harder when the tube is “packed” for some reason? Has this been people’s empirical experience? Is there a lot to gain even when the tube is not really being packed at all? I think my cylinder size is correct because my base girth matches it well.

By “tree trunk”, I take it that you mean tapered - larger base girth, and progressively smaller to the tip?

As long as you’re packing at the base to get a good seal, you’re good to go. Over time, you should see yourself packing more and more of the base, and expanding out from there to the tip.

I don’t think that ‘packing’ the cylinder is necessary for growth. It is at least arguable that packing the cylinder means there is no more room for expansion, and thus it represents a limiting factor to growth where you’re packing. Where you’re not ‘packed’, you still have room to expand.

Think about the sun tea jar pumpers. It takes a long time to fill a sun tea jar with pumped dick and balls, but I haven’t heard anyone say that they cannot grow at all as a result.

Or, on a smaller scale, consider the ‘full package’ pumpers, with 3 - 4 inch diameter cylinders. It takes a long time to pack one of those, but men do experience growth during the process.

Maybe you will get something out of this old thread I started:

Packing a cylinder - HOW?

I got some great advice from the vets. Lamp and gprent agree on packing not being necessary for growth. And indeed that has been true for me. I’ve never packed, but I did grow.

As to packing, my attempts at packing really weren’t that "fun" or "productive" — I just ended up feeling fatigued and overpumped and needing to take a day or two off to recover. With that hideous doughnut thing. And black spots on my glans.

Yuck

I think packing is nothing more then a visual turn on. There is no difference between expanding to 6.5” girth in a 2” tube and being packed or expanding to 6.5” girth in a 2.25” tube and just looking great.

As a matter of fact, spending too much time in the packed state can lead to significant bad results including those nasty head blisters.

Although I could pack my 2” cylinder, my favorite tube to use is my 2.25”.

On the “tree trunk” thing, ME TOO!

I was just thinking tonight that I would like to figure out a way to target the top third of my unit with jelqing. Maybe some sadsak heads or something.

I should note that my taper is much more gradual than from before I started PE. Used to be very sharp from circ scar to the bottom the the glans. More subtle now, I credit pumping with that.

My tree trunk is ridiculous. 6.25” on a good day at the very base…my head sucks, it’s like 4.6. But the shaft right below the head is like 5.0-5.1. For the most part the MSEG is around 5.25”.

Anyway, I wonder if all tree trunks are like mine, with pretty equal width all throughout and only the side view showing the tapering.

I did a post on the advantages of base girth and the ‘tree trunk’ shape a couple of years ago:

Lampwick - Don’t want any more girth, just length

Do you want to look at it or do you want to use it?

There is a significant advantage to having a smaller glans and a larger base girth. Insertion is easier, and you can stretch things out more or less simply by controlling how deeply you’re inserted. This has a lot to do with pleasure and comfort level. You get more “aaaaah”s and fewer “ow!”s.

Progressive stretching as you go deeper can be a very good thing for both of you, and you can have that with a smaller glans and a larger base.

Sta:

I’m sorry, man. I must have missed the part about the black spots on your glans.

Together with a ‘tree trunk’ shaped dick, that could mean Tar Spot Disease:

If it recurs, consult an arborist.

Happily they went away the next day.
