    im not psssing all over the concept (so to speak ) but giving feedback from your targeted market that is looking at the product and making a decision to spend my money on it or not

    as with condoms, one size does not fit all and it seems one she-p doesnt suit all either

    good luck

    no worries! (of course it - unlike the condom caths - is trimmable to fit)

    what was your feedback? Price mostly? Or just not interested in a stick on at this juncture?

    FWIW, I have zero monetary or whatnot involvement in this product (other than buying one), I did not help design it or develop it, I just think it's a cool idea so am promoting it...

    heheh - my feedback was im anti shaving (i wax but im also scared of the brazillian-ouch!) and shaving is one of the things you need to do for the she-p apparently

    and im not questioning your motives in this product at all, was just making comment about the use of it

    good luck!!

    Forgive my intrusion, but I have to wonder (on behalf of my wife..) - it appears there's a pocket of air in there, which would compress at depth.

    a) Does this cause discomfort via suction as the pressure increases?
    b) does this compression pose a risk of breaking the skin seal?

    Do you overcome this by filling the empty space with water before the dive, or is it pretty much a non-issue?

    Also, once duly relieved, does a portion remain to slosh around in that pocket?

    Yeah, you're right . . . But I didn't BUY the dry suit until I tried it! I'm being more liberal than that with this; if you and Heather try it and it works, I'm there.
