Freetom/stp advise

[kings joker]

Hey guys,
I just got my two new freedom stps in the mail, The Sleek and The Buddy. I tried peeing with he sleek and it worked until I over flowed the back and started dribbling out. Than I guess when I was done there was a pool in the back that needed to be emptied. I realized that my legs were squeezing the stp and making weird pockets instead of a straight funnel. I've used other STPs that have been thicker and not so easily squeezed. Does anyone have advise on how to stand to not disrupt the funnel shape?
I was really surprised how floppy both my freetoms are. If I had a chance to actually feel them before I bought them I would have been more skeptical from the start. I'm not quite at buyers remorse but I'm a little disappointed at how not ridged they are.

I've had 3 Freetoms and was hoping that they would be better than the other. Unfortunately I was wrong and none of them worked for me. I liked the look of the buddy but it just didn't work at all. I honestly couldn't grasp the concept of their STPs. The only Freetom that worked (kind of) was the sleek but it was way to big to pack with and just looked ridiculous. I always had accidents with the Freetoms and just gave up on them. I'm upset about the money I wasted on something that didn't deliver. It's a learning experience though, and at least you can give your opinion to other guys that may be interested in their products.

I ended up getting myself an EZP by Transthetics. It was definitely the best investment in an STP that I made and I don't plan on going back at this point.

In the mean time maybe try to not press the funnel up against your body? Dunno if that will help.

I played around with it in the shower and really tried to visualize how the pee flows. The fact that it scrunches in between the legs is such a killer. I kinda got it with the sleek afterwards but then I adjusted my leg and it all came falling out. I agree its not fun to pack with, I'll have to keep doing some adjusting to get it right. The buddy was a much better packer but will just be harder not to overflow.
Also, I wear very tight boxer-breifs and I have no idea how peeing is going to be possible with my underwear bearing down on the flimsy silicone like that.
This experience is really making me want to design my own STP. Ive got the skill just need to find time in between my thesis.

It can be extremely discouraging , but you'll get it with practice. I also wear tight boxer briefs and found myself having to pull everything down in order to use it. I had a few successful attempts in public with the sleek but after awhile I was just tired of having to think about it. I needed something I could just whip out and go.  I think the funnel is just too big and uncomfortable and like you said it scrunches up. The pee sitting in the back was also a very annoying process. This is why I like the EZP (even though it's hard to get your hands on one). You can just whip it out and go and you just tilt it forward and all the pee comes out. Also the EZP doesn't require a harness so the tight boxer briefs really help.

Yeah I'm having some buyers remorse...I packed all day with the buddy and it never quit packed right and was way to sweaty sticky for comfort. I really took my design eye to my new prosthetics and everything that I came up with I quickly realized the EZpee already did....Harder silicone, smaller funnels, curved shape to adjust for leg roundedness, small enough to pack with. The only thing that I would say the EZpee could do better was to just be longer but than it would be harder to pack with. Idk I'm still mulling over possibly designing my own alternative. I might just have to sell my Freedoms after a whopping one day of use to buy an EZpee

I tried just about every STP out there. The Buddy worked okay for me, but it just took a lot of practice. I ended up going with the EZP too, but I hate how it looks/feels when packing.

The Buddy is possible to use you just have to lean forward a lot more than you think, and don't press it against yourself too hard. Pants with longer zippers help too. It is weird to pack with too though. I powdered mine almost daily and it still seemed sticky.

How does it feel packing? is it too hard? Or does it just not feel natural like a packer does

Yeah I feel ok peeing with my Sleek but it is just HUGE to pack with plus the sticky sweatiness.

Just bought an EZP off of FTMgarage! Already sold my buddy, now I just need to sell the Sleek.

I wish there was a way I could have seen these in person and felt the texture. You just don't know what to look for until you bought it. It's like the first couple of sex toys I bought! All such garbage and not satisfying
