Got a cock ring? Want to find out how to make the most of it? We’ve got you covered, with this handy guide to the best cock ring sex tips.

It’s been a while since we launched our world-first ATOM PLUS cock ring, and as is traditional with all our sex toys, we wanted to write an overview of some of the best cock ring sex tips that’ll help you get even more pleasure out of your awesome new sex toy. So we’ve gathered tips from members of our team, reviewers of our toys, and other cock ring fans from elsewhere on the internet. Work your way through this list of the best cock ring sex tips, and chip in to the comments if you’ve got a great cock ring sex tip that we’ve missed!

Cock ring sex tip 1: Vibrating cock rings also make great bullet vibes

You don’t have to have a cock to use a vibrating cock ring. While many cock rings have quite weak vibrations, with powerful sex toys like the ATOM PLUS, you can use deep, rumbly vibrations for direct and effective clitoral stimulation.

In her blog post about ATOM PLUS, Scandarella explains:

“Just like I can with the ATOM, holding the edge of the ATOM PLUS against my clit gets me off no problem. And that’s because the vibes are good! Like, really good. They’re delivered by dual motors, one in the top and one in the bottom.”

Cock ring sex tip 2: Don’t forget the balls

Sarah, who works on our team and blogs as Girl on the Net pointed out that before she had a dual-motor cock ring, there were certain areas that were being… umm… neglected.

“My partner and I have had more than one playfully-heated-discussion about the best way to wear a vibrating cock ring. He used to think that the vibrator was supposed to go at the base of the shaft, between cock and balls, to give him that added tingle of sensation in his ballsack. I pointed out that clearly – CLEARLY – it was meant for my clit. So my advice would be to try it in lots of different sex positions and rotations so you can find the best way it works for you.”

If you have a single-motor cock ring, like the ATOM, try different positions and rotations to get the maximum bang for your buck with the vibrations: reverse cowgirl, for instance, means a partner with a clitoris gets the benefit of the intense vibes while the partner with a penis gets the tingling vibrations through their balls.

Alternatively, grab yourself an ATOM PLUS, which has not one but two intensely powerful motors. It’s like nothing else on the market, literally: we had to invent a new way to embed wires in a sex toy so we could power both motors off the same battery, meaning the vibrations delivered to your balls and perineum are as powerful as those from the vibe on top of the shaft.

When we asked Twitter for more cock ring sex tips, the fabulous DominaVontana recommended perineum play too:

“Don’t forget the tip and perineum of the cock. To place the vibrating ring against the perineum stretch it wide enough for the cock and balls to be placed through the ring. The ring can be adjusted during play, especially if the partner receiving penetration has a large clitoris or one that is easily stimulated.”

Cock ring sex tip 3: Combine a vibrating cock ring with a dildo

If you’re used to using a combination of clitoral vibrators plus dildos for masturbation, consider investing in a powerful vibrating cock ring. You can get similar results – internal penetration plus external clitoral stimulation – while only needing to use one hand in order to get off.

We’re big fans of hands-free orgasms too (check out our top tips on hands free masturbation!) so combining a vibrating cock ring with a suction dildo means you may be able to achieve a hands-free orgasm of your own.

Cock ring sex tip 4: Don’t forget the patterns!

Sex toy patterns aren’t for everyone – a lot of people prefer the steady thrum of a constant vibration. But for many, patterns make a significant difference to their enjoyment of the toy. A good vibrating cock ring, like ATOM, will usually come with a few pre-set patterns.

The five vibration patterns are very pleasing; my favourite is the third one which I have named ‘Casper’ as it sort of goes “woooOOOOoooooOOOOooooo”.

These aren’t just picked at random – they’re the manufacturer’s recommendation for particular sensations that they think will feel good with this kind of toy.

As demonstrated by reviewer Joanne’s Reviews, patterns can really enhance your enjoyment of a good vibrating cock ring:

“The five vibration patterns are very pleasing; my favourite is the third one which I have named ‘Casper’ as it sort of goes “woooOOOOoooooOOOOooooo”. This steady vibration that raises and then lowers feels fantastic. Stunt cock, on the other hand, likes the staccato rhythm patterns that are also very pleasing.”

So one of the best vibrating cock ring sex tips is also the simplest – take time to explore your sex toy and see what it offers! If you’ve got vibration patterns, have a play and see if any of them take you to the next level of pleasure.

Unusual vibrating cock ring sex tip: use it for your teeth

Innocent Loverboy is a fab sex blogger and also clearly a creative genius: he explained that the vibrations from a cock ring also provide certain pain-relief benefits!

“The vibrating battery on a disposable cock ring is removable. You can use it as a clit vibe… or to soothe a sore tooth!”

To clarify, we’re not recommending you put vibrating batteries in your mouth: Innocent Loverboy suggests putting the vibrating bullet (or the whole cock ring if you’re using a rechargeable one like ATOM PLUS) on the outside of your mouth to soothe toothache.

Dragging this back to the sexy stuff, we should also point out that vibrations are also great for stimulating other areas – put your fingers through the ring and trace the vibrating cock ring over your partner’s body: nipples, neck, spine, wherever they like best!
