    I just got the ones that local Medical supply house uses so I don't have a recommendation for you.

    But if you have never used them before (This may sound funny but it is not a joke) consider doing a little pruning first or it might do it for you. I will not elaberate more than that. If you don't get the hint PM me and I will expand.

    Mentor

    I have tried the mentor but they seem to have a lot of room up top that could cause kinking. I am filmier with proper trimming..lol

    Important Safety Alert !!

    Always be sure to do any trimming BEFORE donning the cath.

    i also get the Freedom cath from my local medical supply.

    I tried the non adheasive type but they just are not secure enough. Go with the sticky ones, the others just dont work right for diving.

    I have used another brand i think they are called clear advantage with just as much luck as the Freedom. Heck they may be the same brand just one is clear and one is not.

    Andy

    I had a very painfull experience the first dive, trimming is not an option, its a requirement! Unless your a sadist.
